What is Dare 2 Share LIVE?
Teens desperately need the hope of Christ, and their peers are the best possible messengers of that hope. Imagine what could happen in our communities if every teen, everywhere, heard the Gospel from a friend! Through Dare 2 Share LIVE, youth ministries around the world are uniting to activate young people to reach their world with the message of Jesus.
This on-demand video training event you can do in your own community ignites your teensā hearts for the lost, equips them with a clear Gospel message, and activates them to step out to serve and share.Ā
Why it Works
Evangelism accelerates the discipleship process like nothing else does! When students share the Gospel, especially with their peers, they ask questions, pray deeply and learn to depend on the Holy Spirit. Plus, they get to participate in the Cause of Christ, making disciples who make disciples. Dare 2 Share LIVE is a global movement with local impact as communities are impacted by the Gospel and teens are transformed as they share.
