hey greg technically 23,500 tons sorry it was 23 tons last year we beat that by 500!!! anyway my friend alicia who me and my friend crystal called for the cell phone challenge at first yelled at us and hung up the moment we said the word god/religion don’t know which. well monday we talked to her and she at first was mad at us for calling her on saturday, she did listen to what we had to say though and although she does not yet agree with it she at least listened which me and crystal touhgt would take a LONG time after she yelled at us on saturday. she also said she might come to bible study with us next week. so i say the 48 hour challenge went pretty well for me. my other friend Jennifer said she would come to bible study with us this week but we aren’t sure their having it because of ash wensday so probably next week. wow that was a really long comment…. anyway Dare 2 Share was awesome this year in NE!!!!!!!!!!

Dare2Share was awesome and it opened my eyes. I got the Dare2Share book from one of my leaders and I’ve only read 22 pages of it and it’s still changed me so much.

Hey Greg I kind of have an emergency on my hands. I know this girl at my school named Tarah and her mom has cancer. I was talking to one of my friends that is her cousin and he said that doctors say that Tarah’s mom has two weeks left on this earth. Two weeks until she dies phyisically and spiritually. It tears me up inside that I didn’t reach Tarah sooner. I mean I’ve talked about God quite a bit with her but I need to talk to her one on one. Just pray that I’ll be able to visit with her mom and open her eyes. And pray that Tarah will come to Christ in the process too. I need help. Just give me some advice. I think I’ll try to take her on a walk and talk to her about it. I’ll also try to get her to go to 180 (The youth group that I go to.) Just pray for me to be filled with the Holy Spirit and led by the Holy Spirit. READ THIS GREG IT’S AN EMERGENCY A SOUL IS AT STAKE!!!!!!!

Hey! Greg, thank you! Man I had the worst year of my life this year. I didn’t want to believe in God, but one of my friends kept asking me to go to Youth Group, so I did. (Thank God for her!) I thought about not going to D2S this year, but I went anyway, reluctantly. Oh my God! I couldn’t understand why I even tried to not believe! When you told us to get on our knees and pray, I didn’t konw if I could. (Just had surgery.) But I did it anyway. Something popped and my knees work better than ever! Praise God! God worked in us that night!

Our vans got towed and we had to walk to the impound. One friends had a panic attack and we had to call 911. But get this: everything happens for a reason! She got to witness to the paramedics! She was fine after that and we got our vehicles back shortly!

I gave myself to God that night.

I had the best time at Dare 2 Share! I loved it! This was my first Dare 2 Share, and the experience was just awesome. You could so feel the presence of God, and it brought me all the more closer to Him. I had taken teh cell phone challenge, wanting to share with my friend Cady (she’s bisexual and never believed that she could ever go to heaven) and her girlfriend Tay.

I’m happy to say that this morning I was able to bring Tay to Christ!!!!! She accepted Christ in her heart, and she told me that afterwards she felt something different and that she had chills……. I really do believe that God had a huge part with this, and I’m so happy that I was able to further the Kingdom of God.

I hope that I will be able to help Tay with her walk in Christ and help her if possible. Thank you for inspiring me!

Love from your sister in Christ and God Bless!

This was my first year ever going. to tell the truth…this is the first year i have really ever been able to do anything with conferences and stuff like that. i am only a 19 year old college sophomore who was forced to grow up quickly. people treat me as an adult…but im in the limbo stage of between teen and adult and there really aren’t any places to go to learn how to share my faith. I did call one of my friends and talked to him. he wasn’t ready to accept Christ as his savior…so i suggested we take the time to talk about the subject again. i have a heart for my friends and also my family. I thank Dare 2 Share for helping me change the way i pray. thank you for equipping even a lowly college student…to share my faith with my friends. thank you from the bottom of my heart. God bless.

Greg,

I have been helping out at the Lincoln conference for about 4 yeas. Every since my first conference (Battlezone) I have felt God calling me to ministry. After you gave your talk on Sat. night. I decided to start serving God NO matter where or what HE asks me to do. I am happy to say that I have put in an application to Barclay college for Youth Minstry. I have a passion to spread the Gospel Journey in hopes that it will change people that hear it. Just as it changed me.

The reason I am going into Youth Minstry is when the Gospel in given and youth come to know Christ. There is a joy I get in my heart. From knowing that by the gracr of God, I can help this new creation to know, own, live, and share their faith in Jesus Christ. That is why I call “PAY DAY” for youth leaders. I am going to serve Him so all the glory can go back to Him.

Greg I want to talk you and the Lincoln team from the bottom of my heart. You have been such great friends. I can’t thank you enough.

Following His Will,
Julie

Hi! I had an amazing experience at d2s Chicago, but I’d like to tell you about something that happened after d2s.

One of my school friend’s pastor went to d2s with my friend’s youth group. Although my friend did not attend, his youth pastor gave him the Venti Jesus Please book. I also bought the book while I was at d2s. One morning in class, I saw him with the book! I thought that this was cool, but I did know that he was already a Christian. A few days later, I found that he had given the book to a girl at our school who was probably not a Christian. I thought that this was a great idea!

I think that it is so amazing that one book with so much information in it to help someone make the choice to know God can go through so many people to reach those who need it most.

One more thing: whoever is planning on going to d2s next year, bring your unsaved friends with you!! It’s the perfect conference to bring them to. It doesn’t come off as what they thing is a “wierd Christian thing,” and it answers questions.

Thanks a lot!
