Last night God did some pretty cool stuff in student's lives here in Chicago!~
From the moment Jesus came into my life, I've wanted to tell everyone about Him, how He changed my life and how He continues to! That's why I like D2S. The ministry of Dare 2 Share is Mobilizing teenagers to relationally and relentlessly reach their generation for Christ! Students don't need more entertainment that leaves them focusing on themselves, they need a Cause to live for! Jesus lived that Cause, wants to live it in us and wants to help us to do the same!
Last night kicked off with a dramatization of the Apostle Paul in prison just before he died. He was passionate about writing one last letter to his disciple Timothy (2 Timothy in the Bible). The focus was on 4:1-8 and this was the message:
GO and preach the Word,
FIGHT the good Fight,
WIN the Prize!
Greg, Zane & Propaganda taught thru this passage and it was powerful! Then Zane walked us thru the G.O.S.P.E.L. acronym and got us prepared for the opportunities we will get today to share Jesus!
Then the evening ended with a powerful dramatization on God's judgment, mercy & grace. TONS of students gave their lives to Jesus and TONS MORE surrendered to follow Him!~ Totally SICK - as Zane would say!!!!
Students were challenged by Greg, Zane & Prop with "Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam" - For the Greater Glory of God and the Salvation of all Humanity! To live for Him and no longer for self! Lord, please make that true in my life as well!~ To let others in on this amazing relationship with Jesus, to stand up for the truth and to someday hear our Daddy in heaven tell us WAY TO GO!
Ohhhhhh Yeahhhhhhh - can't wait for more today!
PLUS - it's been totally cool to be here and hang with youth pastor friends David, Eric, Jaret, Jody & all of Brian Ford's team! I'm watching these leaders and they are amazing with their students! Honored to be with them.
