In Ep. 22 The Conversion of Rick Taylor, you will hear a real live story of a Californian suring hippy getting saved out of the deep 70's drug culture. This was the era of the Jesus Movement when millions of 'way-out' pot-smoking hippies found Jesus en masse.

Early on in his life, Rick experienced the presence of God when his grandparents took him to church meetings. He heard the stories of Aimee Semple McPherson and the miracles at Angelus Temple and longed to see them himself. However, due to his dysfunctional family system, Rick could not reconcile the message of God on Sunday with what was happening the other six days of the week. Finally, in his early teens, his parents divorced and there was no center to his world.

Rick found acceptance and detachment in the suring/drug culture of Pismo Beach, California. Before long, Rick was hosting 'Woodstock' type parties on a large ranch on the outskirts of town. Ten years of being stoned, virtually daily, left Rick empty and hopeless. Then the Jesus Movement began. It was the era of Barry McGuire, Keith Green, and Lonnie Frisbee baptizing thousands on California's beaches. And . . . Barry McGuire got to Rick!

Hear how an original hippy came to Jesus, experienced instantaneous deliverance from drugs, and began to bring the 'presence of God' to fellow hippies who knew nothing of God. Hear how God can take a lost soul and enable him to bring the presence of God to catalyse thousands of healings all over the world. This is The Conversion of Rick Taylor.
