The Voice

Forty years ago, a revolution that has been called the Fourth Great Awakening swept America, as tens of thousands of youth turned on to Jesus.

David Wilkerson called it "a righteousness revolution which will be the biggest thing that ever hit this country." Ronald Reagan told Pope Paul VI, "so many young people had simply turned from drugs to a faith in Jesus."

Linda Meissner is widely recognized as the visionary founder of the Jesus People Movement and the Jesus People Army in the Pacific Northwest. This is her story.

What people are saying about The Voice:

In The Voice Linda Meissner shares her story, from leading gangsters on the streets of New York to Christ to reaching thousands of youth across the nations. Linda's story both shares the joys of seeing God move through her life and the painful betrayal and deception that left her in obscurity, disjointed from her leading role in the Jesus People Movement. By the end we, the readers, are left truly inspired as one prophetic word from God inspires Linda to rise up once again
-Michael Meyers (Senior Pastor of The River Church, Elim Pentecostal Churches, UK)

Among the many voices raised in praise during the era of the Jesus People movement, one voice stood out in the greater Seattle area crying out for an army of young evangelists to take the message of Jesus Christ to an ever expanding area. "The Voice" was Linda Meissner This book from her hand tells her story of her journey
-Fr. Duane Pederson (Eastern Orthodox priest. Founder of Jesus People International & Hollywood Free Paper)

Linda Meissner's memoire provides a series of encounters, phrases, and anecdotes that vividly recall those days when a spiritual move took hold of many young-and truth be told-older hearts. Not all the stories are neat and simple, but the vignettes are laid out in The Vision for those who were not there, to feel as though they were
-Fr. Robert Sirico (Catholic priest. Founder and President, The Acton Institute for the study of religion and liberty)

In this unique, historical book Linda Meissner takes you back in time to the 60s and 70s with such vivid autobiographical stories that you literally feel part of the extraordinary events of those days. This book is definitely a "must read" for everyone who dares to dream of an upcoming revival. If Linda could show God's love to masses of young people back in those days, then for us with all our 21st century tools like websites, social networks, and mobile communication there is absolutely no excuse not to do it.
