ARTHUR BLESSITT & THE ETERNAL RUSH "Soul Session At His Place" Audio CD
Sunset Strip “His Place” and the late 60’s In 1967 I went to a ‘love In’ at Griffith Park in Hollywood to share Jesus. Dressed in a suite and tie I looked totally out of place. I was sharing with one young man and he said why don’t you get up on stage and tell them what you are telling me about Jesus. I soon stood on the stage in front of ten to fifteen thousand kids and spoke about Jesus. I ask whoever wanted to know more of Jesus to join me under a certain tree that I pointed to. About a hundred young people came over to hear about Jesus. That changed my life. Jesus then called me to move to Hollywood and just walk the streets sharing Jesus. I canceled most of my church meeting and went to the streets. Soon I was preaching in the nightclubs, and on stage at rock festivals, going to the gangs, and ministering to all the people groups on the Strip. We started a Jesus nightclub or coffee house called ‘His Place’ in early 1968. Jesus called me to make a cross and hang it on the wall of the building. Over the next years we move four times facing battles with the law and club owners. We did short crosswalks along Sunset every few weeks. Yet Jesus prevailed and a mighty Jesus awaking took place on the streets. It later became know as the Jesus Movement. I left on Christmas Day 1969 to carry the cross across America. This helped spread the Jesus Movement across the nation from L A to D C. Arthur chained himself to the cross on the Strip and fasted 28 days and nights after being evicted from ‘His Place’ in 1969. He fasted until he got a new building on the Strip. His Place just moved to the streets and the movement exploded as thousands came to Jesus.
