When you prioritize Jesus’ call, You will see your ministry thrive.
Many leaders talk about evangelism in their youth group, and often will even do a community service project to check off the evangelism box for the year, but is this really what is going to instill a lifelong passion for Gospel-sharing within students?
Matthew 28:19-20 states: “Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore GO and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Jesus doesn’t want us to just check off a box, He wants us to make evangelism a part of our lifestyle. When students grasp this and choose to go all in, they not only change their communities, but their faith grows strong.
This is easier said than done, which is why the team at Dare 2 Share created an event that lays the evangelism training foundation for you and your students. Dare 2 Share LIVE “Let’s Go,” is available via on-demand videos now! This resource will equip your students for evangelism and instill a lifelong passion in them for Gospel conversations as they go out into their communities to share. They get to see lives change before their eyes and build confidence for continuing to share their faith.
But, don’t take it from us, take it from a leader who attended last year: Mr. Bill.
Mr. Bill's Dare 2 Share LIVE Story
A long-time friend of Dare 2 Share, he’s affectionately known in his youth group as “Mr. Bill.” His youth ministry was transformed by Dare 2 Share events, and he is now a Gospel Advancing leader who is mobilizing his students to share the Gospel. When his group put on a Dare 2 Share LIVE event, he saw a major shift in mindset within his students.
He tells a story about one of the youth leaders in his group named Shawn. Shawn started out the outreach experience by going and sharing the Gospel first, which is something Dare 2 Share encourages – the leader going first and giving an example for the students. Shawn talked with a firefighter, laying out the Gospel the way the students were taught by the Dare 2 Share LIVE speakers. The students got to watch this take place and see the Holy Spirit at work.
After this encounter, one of the students shared her thoughts with Mr. Bill. She said, “it truly wasn’t about Shawn in that moment, it was about loving Jesus and sharing about Him with others.” She continued by stating, “I see now that this is a lifestyle not just something we are doing today.” She realized it is about living life in relationship with Jesus, and sharing His Word with the others we meet along the way.
This story goes to show how much of an impact Dare 2 Share LIVE can have on individual students and ministries. A teen was able to discover this lesson through observing a relational Gospel conversation, and your students have a chance to do the same by using the Dare 2 Share LIVE video resources.
