Saw it...
What did you think? What did you know of Chuck, Greg and Lonnie before you went? Do you remember the Time magazine article? I read it. Our Young Life group in little Bay Village Ohio had gone from twelve to 450 weekly in two short years.

I thought the movie was well done. I teared up four or five times.
That all happened before my time. I did not come to Christ until 1979. And I did not fully submit/commit until 1984.

I guess I consider myself a grandchild of the movement...

Guy in my life group now 70, went to Calvary chapel and knew all three. Got baptized in Pirate's cove. It was the real deal.

Welcome to the board and the thread. What did he think of the movement? Folks that were there saw history happen.
He and his wife were both saved in that movement. They respected the honesty and the simplicity of the Gospel. Folks who were looking for meaning, found it in Jesus and not sex, drugs and rock and roll.

Exactly...and Young Life sprang from that and found its way to Cleveland, '69-'70, where it found me on the west side, in Bay Village. We went from twelve to 450 and bursting at the seams with additional groups in Cleveland, Rocky River and I believe Westlake.
