This weekend's three-night evangelistic "crusade" at Angel Stadium of Anaheim is being hosted by some 300 churches throughout the Southland.

Like last year's event, the "2010 Southern California Harvest" will be broadcast live on the internet at www.harvest.org and streamed live to iPhones.

Despite the musical performances, Laurie has stressed that the event is not a festival or a concert but an evangelistic event that is "designed from beginning to end to present the Gospel."

Crusade evangelism was the trademark of renowned Christian leaders including Billy Sunday, D.L. Moody, Billy Graham.
