Reseña del libro "Stop! Hey, What's That Sound?: The 1960's Revolution and Birth of the Jesus People (en Inglés)"
'Stop! Hey, What's That Sound? - The 1960's Revolution and the Birth of the Jesus People' is a historical and spiritual adventure! It rides the waves of Societal Change, Just Causes, Social Experimentation, Peaceful Movements and a God Visit. Twenty-seven eyewitness contributors have joined to preserve an accurate record of these times with 350+ photos and art from the era. The facts, personal and national failures are left intact. A fierce battle between the forces of Darkness and Light electrify the pages of this Epic True Story. As fragile World Peace and the threat of nuclear war looms, who to trust or believe in, is an unspoken question on the minds of countless millions the world over. In the USA, amidst social hopes and dreams rising and falling, the assassinations of John F Kennedy, Robert F Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., thrust America and various parts of the globe into complicated grief. Freedom, justice and equality for all remained elusive as prejudice and the horrors of the Vietnam War raged on. A generation seeking 'Peace and Love' swells, until falling prey to dangerous and addictive drugs, hedonism and demonic practices which drives a spike into the coffin of this fledgling movement. When answers and hope are at their lowest, a remnant of hippies arise from the ashes, claiming redemption through Jesus Christ. Society as a whole is shocked to see Nomadic long-haired Christ-Followers carrying Bibles and speaking about God with conviction! This was 'The Jesus Movement.' The era rock musicals, 'Godspell' and 'Jesus Christ Superstar' heighten awareness of this spiritual phenomenon. Soon to follow is the rock-musical 'Lonesome Stone, ' debuting at the Rainbow Theatre in London, England. The uniqueness of this production is its cast of, 100% 'Jesus People.' LS probes the heart decisions of Peace and Love advocates when they begin to hear and then experience, Jesus Christ is alive! On the road in the USA, the UK and beyond-'Stop Hey' documents the birth of Jesus People, their travels, challenges they faced and ensuing victories and defeats. Exposing dangerous cults and providing help for victims is included, because a number of Jesus People Groups were targeted and wounded by them. What's before you is what we saw, experienced and offer as a written record. - D.E. Hoyt
