Author Information
Like many who came of age in the 1960s, Greg Laurie was on the search for the meaning of life. Born out of wedlock to the beautiful Charlene McDaniel, an alcoholic who went on to marry seven times, Greg started drinking, partying and taking drugs to escape the insecurity and dysfunction of his family. But his life was suddenly changed when he encountered a group of young Christians on his high school campus in Newport Beach, CA. Greg went on to start what became one of the first mega-churches in the US as well as a far-reaching ministry that today touches many who are searching for meaning, just as he once was. In 1990, Laurie began holding public evangelistic events called Harvest Crusades. Since then, four million people have attended Harvest Crusades across the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. Today, he is senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, CA, a congregation that is among the eight largest churches in America. He is also the author of more than 35 books, including the Gold Medallion Award-winner The Upside-Down Church and his most recent Regal release, Lies We Tell Ourselves.
