First Congregational Church, United Church of Christ, Rochester is hosting a showing of the movie Jesus Revolution, free of charge and open to the public on Friday, November 10, 2023 at 7:30 p.m. The church is located at 1315 N. Pine Street, Rochester. Rated PG, the movie tells “the story of one young hippie's quest in the 1970s for belonging and liberation that leads not only to peace, love, and rock and roll, but that sets into motion a new counterculture crusade – a Jesus Movement – changing the course of history. Inspired by a true movement, Jesus Revolution tells the story of a young Greg Laurie (Joel Courtney) being raised by his struggling mother, Charlene (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) in the 1970s. Laurie and a sea of young people descend on sunny Southern California to redefine truth through all means of liberation. Inadvertently, Laurie meets Lonnie Frisbee (Jonathan Roumie), a charismatic hippie-street-preacher, and Pastor Chuck Smith (Kelsey Grammer) who have thrown open the doors of Smith's languishing church to a stream of wandering youth. Rock and roll, newfound love, and a twist of faith lead to a ‘Jesus Revolution’ that turns one counterculture movement into a revival that changes the world,” according to Rotten Tomatoes. “Now is a good time to look back and revisit this moment in history,” commented Pastor Scott Cunningham. “Everyone is welcome to stay after the movie for a discussion,” he added.
