Harvest Christian Fellowship

Harvest Christian Fellowship began in 1973 when a 19-year-old Greg Laurie started a home Bible study in Riverside, California. Laurie still leads the church more than five decades later. Harvest is a multi-site congregation with roots in the Calvary Chapel movement and an affiliation with the Southern Baptist Convention, and weekly attendance across its campuses has been reported above 14,000. The church is best known for the Harvest Crusades, the stadium evangelism events Laurie launched in 1990. More than 125 crusades across four countries have drawn over 6.5 million in-person attendees, plus millions more watching online.

Harvest counts 99,082 combined followers across its active platforms. Instagram leads at 55,678 followers on the harvestriverside account. YouTube adds 43,400 subscribers on @harvestchurchyt, up 14.51 percent over the past year, with a video published as recently as June 7, 2026. A TikTok account exists but sits at 4 followers. There is no church Facebook page in the data set for this entry.

The 14.5 percent YouTube growth is the headline. For a church whose founder has been preaching since 1973, adding subscribers at that rate shows the content still lands with new viewers, and the velocity score of 47.8 reflects it. The breadth score of 82.5 comes with an asterisk: the TikTok account is registered but effectively empty, and the absence of a Facebook page leaves a gap most churches this size covered years ago. Note that Laurie's personal media brand, which is far larger, is not counted here. This entry measures the church accounts alone, and the church accounts are growing on their own merit.
