Greg Laurie

Greg Laurie (* 1952) ist ein US-amerikanischer evangelikaler Pastor, Evangelist und Buchautor, der in Kalifornien die Megachurch Harvest Christian Fellowship gründete. Geprägt von der Jesus-People-Bewegung, wurde er vor allem durch überregionale Großevangelisationen wie die „Harvest Crusades“ sowie weltweite Medien- und Buchveröffentlichungen bekannt. Seine Auslegungen betonen eine leicht verständliche, alltagsnahe Heilsgewissheit, während seine politische Nähe zu konservativen Kreisen sowie zivilrechtliche Klagen wegen mangelnder Aufsicht bei Missbrauchsfällen in früheren Missionsprojekten der Gemeinde Gegenstand öffentlicher Kritik sind.
