Have you ever been walking through the hallway in your high school, through the quad at your college, through the park or standing in line at the coffee shop… and you hear that still small voice asking you to walk over to that guy or girl sitting all alone? You can see they are hurting, it’s written all over their face. You know it’s the Holy Spirit speaking to you.
Rather than making a “beeline” for them, praying quickly that the Lord provides a way for you to have a conversation with them about Jesus Christ, you think to yourself, “How would I start a conversation? What would I say, what if he or she asks me a tough question… What if they laugh at me?” Just as quickly as that still small voice asked you to speak with them, the opportunity is gone, they left.
I don’t know about you, but I want to do my best to take every opportunity that I get to tell others about Jesus Christ and His amazing love for us…
I want to invite you out to be a part of the 2010 G3 Training Program. This is a one-on-one personal evangelism training program… We don’t sit in classrooms watching a video, we don’t do “role playing” and we don’t start a book club and read all about it… We believe the best way to learn how to do something is to get out and do it!
We have a team of student leaders from Harvest Christian Fellowship in Southern California that will be coming out to partner with local high school and college-aged guys and gals. We will go to local hot spots in your community, looking for opportunities to talk to people about Jesus. The guys and girls from Southern California will do all the talking, it’s an “observation” opportunity for those who participate.
I can promise you this:
Every night that we hold a G3 training session in the Chicagoland area, people are going to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ. Some seeds will be planted. Some will be watered, some will fall by the wayside… but for some, it will be harvest time, some people will even pray to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
Will you be there?
I encourage you to watch the G3 promo video here, if you’re a student and you want to be involved in this, talk to your pastor. If you’re a youth/college/young adult pastor and you would like to get more info, shoot me an email or give me a call!
The G3 program is a training program in one-on-one personal evangelism, focused on meeting those in our communities who are lonely, hurting, and lost; who have not accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, and who may not even know who He is and what He has done for us.
Luis Palau Prepares More than 600 Business and Church Leaders for Five Months of Service
San Diego CityFest with Luis Palau includes a five-month Season of Service and a culminating two-day world-class festival. The outreach launches next week as Luis Palau addresses more than 600 community, business, and church leaders on March 1 and 2.
At the March 1 event, the County Board of Supervisors will declare 2010 the official Season of Service in San Diego. City of San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders will be in attendance to show his support. Palau will share the vision of county-wide service with area church leaders, preparing them to lead their communities in the Season of Service effort. Along with Palau’s teaching and encouragement, long-time San Diego resident and international leader Dr. Ken Blanchard will teach his world-famous Lead Like Jesus seminar. Both will be present Tuesday night to cast the vision again for area business leaders.
The Season of Service, an historic partnership between area churches, businesses, and civic agencies to serve the community, will show the city an unprecedented display of compassion and love. The first SOS was launched in Portland, Oregon, in 2008 and produced 109,000+ service hours and engaged 25,000+ community volunteers. San Diego’s SOS will emphasize the areas of homelessness, hunger, schools, military, and mentoring. It is expected to exceed Portland’s success and will provide several opportunities for individuals and church groups to serve at “high impact events.” The first of these events, Sleepless in San Diego, will take place on April 24 in conjunction with the San Diego Rescue Mission.
Culminating the Season of Service will be a two-day world-class festival showcasing top contemporary Christian artists, adrenaline-pumping action sports demonstrations, a Family Fun Zone featuring VeggieTales® characters, and much more. Past Palau festivals have attracted tens of thousands of people, including 225,000 in Houston; 200,000 in Minneapolis; 300,000 in Fort Lauderdale; and 800,000 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Luis Palau festivals are free, family-friendly events that have drawn more than 8.5 million people since 1999.
