Lonnie Frisbee

[cheranne]

I just bought the dvd Frisbee and watched it with my 19 year old son.

He said why isn't church like THAT anymore? I said I don't know that's why I don't go.

I heard somewhere that vpw went and met with these young "hippies" back in the day.

Lonnie did not want anything to do with The Way International(pretty smart insight back then!)

I won't give the movie (documentary away)but it was good with all that flower power ,the

sixties were a real turning point for so many people and I believe had it stayed a certain

way and not conformed it could have been a good thing.

He did much more than just meet with them.

He commandeered the movement from Heefner and Doop.

Who is Heefner and Doop?

Who is Heefner and Doop?

Steve Heefner, and Jim Doop. Docvic did an admirable job of hijacking the Jesus Ministry from these two.

Jim Doop passed away a year or so ago.

There's a lot of info here on GSC about him and his ministry and how docvic stole it away.

Look at this! Brings back memories. I was apart of the Jesus movement around 1971, then TWI.

Interesting to read this. How many of us were Jesus Freaks first?

Yes.

If you listen closely to the Frisbee DVD, one of these guys (Doop, Heefner) -- I forget which, sorry -- is mentioned. Just once, but it is there.

Pretty much what that church did to Frisbee is what old Vic did to Doop and Heefner: invite them to become involved with his church, wait for all their followers and all their enthusiam to build a loyal following for twi, then once the whole thing was rolling, just boot Doop and Heefner out the back door for "spiritual" reasons.

[cheranne]

Does anyone know the name of the book? Did Doop write a book or Heefner?
