Jesus Culture is a Christian revivalist youth-oriented organization that was formed at the Bethel Church of Redding, California, in the United States. Jesus Culture Ministry hosts conferences and operates a record label, Jesus Culture Music. In 2013, Jesus Culture moved to plant a church in Sacramento. Meetings started on September 14, 2014.
Background
[edit]In late 1999, the youth group at Bethel Church in Redding, California, led by youth pastor Banning Liebscher, launched the first Jesus Culture conference. Tony Cummings, music editor of Cross Rhythms, described the ministry as "one of the most significant Christian movements in post-war America".[1]
According to Jesus Culture's website, "The heart of these gatherings was to serve other churches and lead young people to experience the radical love of God."[2]
In 2013, Jesus Culture moved to Sacramento to plant a church,[3] and meetings started at Folsom High School on September 14, 2014.[4]
Conferences
[edit]Jesus Culture now hosts an annual conference in Sacramento, California and periodically host conferences around the globe. The conferences bring thousands of young people from around the world to the host cities.[5]
The conferences bring together a number of pastors and ministers to preach to the conference attendees.[5] Worship is led through song, featuring a number of worship leaders.
Jesus Culture Music
[edit]Jesus Culture Music is the music label and Grammy-nominated worship music band of the Jesus Culture organization. Its albums feature the worship of the Jesus Culture Sacramento, performing a mix of original and cover songs.[6]
Youth worship leaders Kim Walker-Smith, Melissa How and Chris Quilala, long active with the youth group at Bethel Church in Redding, became the core of the Jesus Culture band.[7] Jesus Culture states the purpose of music in their movement is to "ignite revival in the nations of the earth; to compel the Body of Christ to radically abandon itself to a lifestyle of worship; to encounter His extravagant love and raw power."[2]
Since 2006, the band has released a number of albums on the Jesus Culture Music label. Their 2011 album, Awakening (Live from Chicago), appeared at No. 133 on the Canadian SoundScan charts.[8] Christianity Today negatively reviewed the album, criticizing it for "amps of staggering sound leave little room for thoughtful reflection or deliberate contemplation",[9] while Jesus Freak Hideout praised it for its "very overt sense of passion for the LORD and worshiping him."[10]
The tenth album, Unstoppable Love, was released in June 2014. Some critics called it "one of their best",[11] "passionate",[12] and "powerful",[13] while others see this newest offering as "a missed opportunity for the band to push themselves a little more musically" other than another CD with musicality that "get[s] bigger and bigger, wider and wider."[14]
Jesus Culture's thirteenth album, Living With a Fire was nominated for the 2019 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album.[15]
