During the early 1970s, the wave of the Gospel message of Jesus hit generations old and new in radical ways, spanning families, communities, countries, and continents. Both churched and unchurched faced massive changes on social and cultural fronts where conservative, Orthodox, and institutional church life was swamped with new expressions of spiritual life and experiences.

Jesus invaded our histories!

He rocked our worlds!

He changed our destinies and reason for living!

In Guidance, Goofs, and Grace, Dave Lutes shares a rollicking personal, spiritual memoir of the early part of his own journey through the Jesus Movement in the early 1970s in Cape Town, when he, with many young people, institutional ministers, lay preachers, and youth leaders alike - participated in the exciting impact of working to spread the Gospel in South Africa. From their voices, we encounter the countercultural spiritual awakening of individuals to God through the Spirit in transformed lives, miracles, healings, and deliverance of the whole person. It's the same message that began in the early church and rings even more true today.
