Greg Laurie is the senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship with campuses in California and Hawaii. He began his pastoral ministry at the age of 19 by leading a Bible study of 30 people. Since then, God has transformed that small group into a church of some 15,000 people, one of the largest in America. In 1990, Laurie began holding large-scale public evangelistic events called Harvest Crusades. Since that time, more than 7.9 million people have participated in Harvest Crusades events in person or online. Laurie is the featured speaker of the nationally syndicated radio program A New Beginning. He also has a weekly television program on the Trinity Broadcasting Network and is the author of numerous books including Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon, Steve McQueen: The Salvation of an American Icon, Live Love Fight, Tell Someone, The New Believer’s Bible, Hope for Hurting Hearts, and his autobiography, Lost Boy. Greg has been married to Cathe Laurie for more than 40 years and they have two sons and five grandchildren.
