Wet, Cold and Happy in Lincoln

Posted on Saturday 24 February 2007 by Greg @ 4:16 pm

The storm is coming!

As I type these words thousands of teenagers have spread out all across Lincoln Nebraska collecting canned goods, prayer requests and sharing Jesus. It’s a cold rain now but is supposed to turn into snow any moment. A major winter storm has been forecast for Nebraska (and pretty much all across the midwest and plains!)

The storm is here!

The real storm is stewing, brewing and blowing between the forces of darkness and the forces of God as these courageous teens contend with Satan for the souls of those who don’t know Jesus. The rain won’t stop them. The snow won’t stop them. The devil won’t stop them.

Empowered by the Spirit of God they go out to share the good news with all who will hear it. They proclaim his glory by the very act of braving the elements for the advancement of God’s kingdom.

Every blast of wind steels and seals their resolve.

Every chilly rain drop deepens their dependence on God.

With every shiver that runs down their spines they are reminded to trust in the God/man who gave up the comforts of heaven and exchanged them for the coldness of humanity. He sacrificed it all for them.

And now they are sacrificing back, not to the same depth or the same degree, but sacrifice nonetheless. Their small sacrifice of a few hours in the cold is a token of their undying love for the one who sacrificed everything for them.

We are wet, cold and very, very happy in Lincoln this weekend.

I love my job. I love these teenagers.

Hey Greg, Thanks for being in Lincoln again. My two teen-agers look forward to this event year after year. It has been a huge part of thier spiritual growth. They are somewhere in Lincoln right this minute sharing. I can’t wait till they come home tonight so I can share in their enthusiasm. Hope to have you back next year.

hey greg. i just wanted to say that last night after the drama, i was moved so deeply that i accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I thought that i had accepted him before. But last night i could acctually feel Him there– standing over me and watching me. I have been to Dare 2 Share before, but i never really thought that i could feel this way. Your speech moved me. Today our youth group had to leave early. We didn’t get to expirience the last of Dare2 Share. This year i got two of my closest friends to come with me. One of my friends had already accepted Christ. The other wasn’t really sure about the whole God thing. but she told me that she believes and accepted Him last night. I just wish that i had words to talk to her before D2S. I wish that i had enought money to buy your book. I really hope that you write back to me. Thanks for changng my life. Kaytlin Miller

Hey Greg, This was my 4th year at Dare 2 Share. I am a senior and have been attending ever since I’ve been a freshman. I really enjoyed this year because it was centered around sports and I love playing basketball. We had to leave early tonight because the snow was bad and we had to drive home in our bus. We were disappointed that we had to leave, but it was worth it because the snow was really bad on the way home. Thank you for all that you have done in impacting the lives of unbelievers and believers!

Hey Greg- My youth group went to the Lincoln conference for the second year in a row but left a little early due to some weather concerns (we didn’t want to crash like super chick!) The drama last night was great…to be honest, as soon as I got back home to Iowa, I talked to my boyfriend, Eric, whom I’ve been going out with for two years, about the good news of Jesus. You and dare 2 share ministries inspired me to talk to him. He took it all surprisingly well, I figure at this rate I’ll actually be able to drag him to my youth group so we can watch Gospel Journey that my youth leader got in the very near future ;) Thank you for all that you do.. P.S.- I wanted to buy your book, but since I don’t have a job and have to mooch money off my parents (I’m 16 and don’t have a job…i know, quite pathetic) I couldn’t get it. P.P.S- This is a long comment…yeah…DEAL WITH IT! P.P.P.S- I have two words for you….devil donut! Just kidding Thanks again! – Leora

The conference was neat. My group came friday night and saturday but did not go door to door. We live in beatrice neabraska. Everyone did not like it that the band swichfoot could not come. That is and the weather is why we left so early.

Hey Greg! This year, I loved Dare 2 Share, in Lincoln. I’ve been going for a couple years now and I fall more and more in love with Christ each year..and I owe it all to you and the Dare 2 Share commitee. You may be talking to 6000 teens, but you make a difference in the whole city that it’s being held at, and many more cities! It’s like Paying it Foward. I hope you’ve seen that movie. You share the word of God to one person..they share to 1 and/or more people..and it just keeps going and going..and soon, hopefully soon enough, the whole world will have an extreme high power for Christ. For some reason, I wanted to give my testimony on how Christ impacted my life..but I will in a blog or something. I better get going. I’m extremely warn out from the amazing weekend and the long long longg slow 25 mph drive home to Omaha. Thank you Greg. Take what you do, at advantage. God Bless!

Dear Greg, my name’s Paige Hawk, and I was at the Dare 2 Share conference this weekend, and I have to tell you, it was eye-opening! It was my first time ever going to a D2S conference, and it was just amazing. MY relationship with Christ had never really been that strong. Yes, I prayed every night before bed and all that jazz, but my family and I just joined Trinity Lutheran Church a year ago, so I’m getting reaquainted with him, I guess. The drama was what really got me the most. I had started to cry before the skit, and then the tears subsided, but at the end, when she said "Daddy" and fell to her knees, I just lost it. I started to cry like a baby, and the tears just kept on coming. For the first time in my life Greg, I felt the presence of God in my heart, and in the room. I just opened up my heart to him Greg, and let him in. It was amazing. And after yo told us to tell our youth leaders that our name would be in the book, I got up to tell Matt (ours) and my knees would not stop shaking, and I could not stop crying. The whole Conference was just, wow. And the worship, the worship was brilliant! I’d never done anything like it. I sang my heart out (I’m surprised I still have a voice) and it just felt so good, to be in the presence of God, and fully let him into my heart. I loved Dare 2 Share: Gameday. But, because of the weather, our youth group left early because of the weather, and we never got to find out what the surprise was. Would you be able to tell me?? If not, I understand. Thank you so much Greg, for teaching us about God, and everything. Thank you for everything you do Greg. I can’t wait to go next year. God Bless, Paige Hawk P.S. I really enjoy the Gospel Journey.

Greg! I loved Dare 2 Share this weekend! This was my first year, and I had a blast! I got really weak-kneed when you told us we were going to call the people we prayed for on Saturday night. My friend is almost gothhic, exept she doesn’t want to be called that. When I called her, she wasn’t in such a great mood. I was totally scared! She’s the kind of person that’ll beat up anybody who offend’s her. i asked her not to lagh or get mad until i got done saying what i was going to say. See, i’ve tried to talk to her about faith quite a few times before, each time more uncomfortabe then the last. I even tried inviting her to church a few times. When I told her that Jesus loves her and I do too, i started to cry. Next, she said the most unexpected thing possible! She said she already believed! My first thought was GREAT!!! This is awesome! But then, I remember the drama. My friend was well-known for lying, especially when there’s something in it for her. She may have told me she believed, just to get me "off her back". After all, if she believed, why wouldn’t she have told me earlier? I’m just really nervous, and I know that all I can do now is to try to strengthen her in her faith. Thank you so much for giving me the courage just to talk to her and tell straight out.

Hey, thank you so much for coming to LINCOLN NEBRASKA!!!!!!!!!!! Woohoo!! This weekend was such a moving time for me. I have never been to Dare 2 Share so this was my first time, and i do have to say, i was very impressed!!! I loved every second of it, and you guys really taught me a lot. Now that I have gone to this with my church friends, i have a lot of insiders with them and it’s cool to be able to say something and laugh about it, when they know what i’m talking about!! Starfield was also soo great…they were awesome!!! I’m sorry about the shirt incident about putting on the "Friends never let friends go to CU" !!! One more thing I would like to say is that i definately plan on doing is that 48 hour challenge that you gave us. I have my friend in mind and on Monday, i will get on this very website and tell you all about my conversation!!! If you have time, please e-mail me on that e-mail address because there are some things I am having problems with and I would just like to talk to someone that could possibly help me!! Thank you so much again!!! ~Kaitlin !

Hey Greg First off thank you so much for coming to Lincoln! This was my last year out of two i could have gone and i can’t believed what i missed last year..I just wanted to tell u a bit about me, im going to college next year for Youth Ministry and this was a kick in the pants for me to share my faith. In relative terms im still a semi-new Christian, ive been a Christian for 2 years and everyday i learn more about God’s amazing plan..This week has energized me to share my faith and i did so on a stop on the way home at a gas station..its amazing how great God is. I was selfish to be afriad to share my faith because the Good News is for everyone not just me. My Mom isn’t a Christian she is more of an agnostic. I have never had the courage to talk to her about Christ because i never lifted it up to God. When i got home tonight i went straight in and told her the Gospel. She didn’t surrender herself to Him, but the seed has been planted and i will continue to pray and talk to her about Christ’s love for us. Thanks agian for coming this was a life changing experience because it was my first time openly sharing my faith. God Bless

Hey, I was just at Dare 2 Share!! It was my first year and was blown away. I was expecting it to be fun but I was deeply moved. My faith is so much stronger. But anyway, this story is not about me, it is about my friend, Karena. That skit with the two best friends who got separated on judgement day made me think of my friend Karena. When you told us that we should tell our youth leaders what we were going to do, I told him that I was going to tell my friend the good news of Christ. Before I tell you anymore, you might want to know a little bit more about my friend. Last year, she lost her dad. He was a really great guy and her whole family suffered at his death after he acquired cancer. Well, she used to be a christian but, after her father’s death she gave up on believing in the lord. Well I was planing on telling her about D2S at school on Monday. But God and you had other plans for that. I was really nervous when you told us to call the people that we had been praying for the past couple of days. I wasn’t sure how she would react. We hadn’t talked about God since her Dad’s funeral. Well I left her a message on her machine. A few minutes later, she called me back and she sounded like she really wanted to know what I had to say. I told her about the skit, the probability, and how God loved her so much that he would send his only son to save her. I also told her how much I had been crying and praying for her. She was very touched. She said that she didn’t know that someone cared that much about her. I said that this christian thing wasn’t going to happen overnight, and that she didn’t have to if she didn’t want to. I told her that if she ever thought about becoming a christian again or if she had any questions that she could call me or talk to me about it. She seemed to take my words to heart and at the end I asked her how she stood about Jesus and Christianity. She said that she still wasn’t completely positive but, she would think about it. I may not have brought her completely to God, but i could feel him working through me. I know in my heart that I will have many more opportunities to tell her more about the good news, but I have used up all of my courage for today. Thanks for coming ot Nebraska!!!! God Bless You!

Greg, thank you so much for coming to our humble little big town of Lincoln and sharing Christ with us. I have gone every year for the past 5 straight, and look forward to it every year. This year was so moving that I really am going to try to make a complete turnaround in my spiritual life and look at everything that goes on in my life differently. I was one of the four that was able to go up and share my testimony in Lincoln, and I must say, that was probably one of the most awesome moments of my entire life. I want to give a big shoutout to whoever’s idea it was to have the cell phone challenge. i called my friend who has been dealing with many troubles in his life, including the loss of his father last year. I know he has been looking for something to fill that hole left in his life, and with that phone call i think i found the thing that he needs in order to fill up the hole, and that obviously, is Christ. I called him and gave him the whole schpeel about the Gospel and everything, and he seemed really moved by it and truly wanted to listen. What really hit home though was when i told him that I was ready to take on Satan one on one to save his eternal soul. That quote from the conference should be used in every teen’s testimony to their friends to get them to trust Jesus. Again, thanks for braving the elements, and i will see you next year! -John Tatum

Greg, Dare 2 Share was simply amazing. I have been going to the Lincoln Conference for 4 years now, this being my forth year. I was not so excited to go out and tell the good new of Jesus in the community today because I knew it was going to be rainy and cold. As soon as I got out of our van and headed to the front steps of our first house, I was so excited! I remembered why I loved to do this. My first year I was so nervous to go door to door. But the past two times I’ve gone door to door, I simply love it. I’m no longer nervous and I look forward to it every year now. Keep up the good work at D2S. We all appreciate everything you do.

okay. so just so you know…this is going to be a very extensive comment:: Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. You are an amazing speaker…definitely my favorite. You know what to say…how to say it…how it word it so it may change young people’s lives. Thank you. You know what? I’m not gonna’ lie. I was really close to NOT coming to d2s this year…for many reasons…mostly because i wasn’t connecting with anyone in my church and i was bitter over countless situations and inevitably avoiding moments with God…basically because i knew i was in the wrong, and didn’t want to be convicted. You know one of the main reasons i came (and this is going to sound horrible so don’t base my Christianity on this statement…) was to watch …that john nuefield is beautiful. Then on Friday’s drama…it was amazing. BUUUUUT then on Saturday…man…that was even more so. I’ve wiped clean all my "get your gangster on" playlists on my iPod…and the thing is…I’ve heard what you said sooo many times. I go to a christian school. they always tell us to watch what we listen to or it will come out in actions. I always believed it, i guess…but the way you worded it…or maybe it was just that I was more open-minded at the time and received it…and realized it was God. Lastly, the cell-phone challenge. When you said that I started shaking…not like just shaking…like full body shivering. I’m not even sure why. I was trying to make up excuses in my head of why i shouldn’t call this guy. See, well…he’s Mexican…and doesn’t know a whole lot of English and i figured "the barrier is too great. Too bad. Sorry God…" then i thought…"wait, idiot. you know Spanish…" so then I told myself, "Sorry I don’t have his number…" but i was going through my phone book and sure enough…i did. As I dialed the numbers i was shaking so violently (i’m not sure why, yet. I’ve shared my faith before…) then I told myself…"this guy could die tomorrow. he’d go to hell. someone HAS to tell him." So I called him. there was no answer and he didn’t have a message machine, but i’m gonna call again tomorrow…and the next day…and the next day. Thank you for all you do for us teens. You change lives, daily. I only wish I could have told you this in person… P.S. the rain stunk. and i smelled like wet-dog all night. and i was maaaad at that stupid storm. Oh yeah. and wearing shoes take water IN instead of keeping it OUT doesn’t really help the fact…

My Youth Group left at lunch! We all really wanted to stay but we don’t live near Lincoln, we are in the Kansas City area and our Youth Leaders felt that our saftey would be compromised if we stayed. We were all praying that those who went out and spread the word of God to the community would have a safe and successful outreach. You did a great Job, and our Youth Group loves your work.

Hi Greg, The D2S in Lincoln was a real adventure in trusting God. Even leaving Friday from a rural area 3 1/2 hours away, when the weather was great, about 10 backed out including some adults. You could see how Satan was trying to discourage us and even pull good friends apart about the desision to go. We worked towards this event since December and raised all the money and now, as youth leaders, we had to make a decision based on the speculation of a storm 24-36 hours away. We felt God wanting us there more than ever, even though support was split. The event was great! It was our groups first time as we had been to another conference for the past 4-5 years. All the teens really enjoyed it alot and felt the points were very clear and to the point. As leaders, we wanted to see all of us challenged. All the hands-on stuff was great practice and challenged us all out of our comfort zones. The weather issue still raged on. We kept making gametime decisions after every break. Praise God, we had a bus driver that God used to allow us to get atleast 2/3 of our outreach area met, an activity we knew Satan was trying to take away from us as many were scared. God changed lives in that one event in the rain, sleet, and fear of driving home into a blizzard. God was faithful and took care of us. We all were out of our comfort zone totally trusting God and God will use us in bigger ways because of it! We miss alot of opportunities as christians because we want to be comfortable and only want to be used there. Our God is so Big! Thanks for your boldness for our big God! God can work any time, any where, any place and in any way! To wrap things up, our drive home went very well. Hit a little streak of weather but after that it was clear sailing until we got home. It was snowing and blowing but still workable. In fact, the funniest part was getting stuck on the gravel road 1 1/2 miles from home. So what can I say, we got to play in the snow for a while. God’s timing was perfect for the whole D2S experience. We are looking forward to using the Gospel Journey Kit and Dare2Share books as well as the practice activities we did at the event.Thanks for allowing God to use you! Keep up the Good Fight. God Bless! Vicki

Hey Greg! I’ve met you a few times, and ran into you in the lobby last night and told you a lot of what I’m about to tell you, but I thought it was time I actually introduce myself. I’m Mandy Peterson, 21 years-old, and a college student. This was my 6th Dare2Share, and at the last Game Day conference I promised to share the gospel with my brother. It turned into fighting about religion. This year I made the same promise. My brother is 4 years older than me, but when I called him last night, we talked as equals. Usually that only happens at funerals. He told me he would think about the whole Christianity thing, which for him, is huge. If he’s open to it, I’m almost certain he will look for it. And if he looks for the truth with an open mind and an open heart, God will show it to him. Thank you for making us get out those cell phones last night. I thought would freak him out or that he would think it was just another one of those crazy Christian things I do. God is working in him, and I’m so excited that I may get to see my brother in heaven. Before last night, I always thought it was next to impossible, but I’m sure there’s a reason that God has laid him on my heart over and over. Thank you for daring me.

This really has nothing to do with Nebraska or Lincoln, But i wanted to let you know that the e-free people back in St.louis sorted ALL of the cans we collected in St.louis!! It took 25 people and at least 8 hours to sort probably about 20-22 tons of canned goods because some had been done already. It was really fun though!! The students who came were glad to do it and Mr. And Mrs. Clarkson were really glad too!

I really needed to tell you my story ok here it is: I found a new me when you told us to call your friend and tell the the GOSPEL and i had so much fun and i was moved to call more people so i called 3 other people and told them the good news of christ and one of my friends her name is Kailey and she was in Holstine somewhere where it was really crowded and i told her i needed to tell her something and she completely stopped what she was doing and listened to me and that was really awesome. And you know how it was snowing really bad in Lincoln that night we got snowed in so we couldnt go home to Kearney that night. So we went to stay at South Gate United Methodist Church and so we did and the next morning i asked my youth leader Carol if i could tell the congrigation about dare 2 share and what we do and she went and asked the pastor if we could do this and i took up to other people with me so i didnt have to talk the whole time. And the we talked about everything we did a D2S and stuff and i would have never done that if it wouldn’t have been for you so Thank You and tell that to the whole Dare 2 Share staff. Courtney from Kearney p.s thanks again

Dude Greg, thanks for coming to Link & the Pershing… and Church this morning too. The whole weekend was a totaly awsome time. Worshiping with over 6000 other teens is really truly amazing. Drama was awsome and the first night when you did "payday" for the youth leaders, i just about cried. Thank you so much for taking the time to do what you do and investing in our lives! Sk8

Hey, Thanks again for a great conference in Lincoln! I think this was my 6th time going. As a college student at a public university (Go Huskers!), it’s easy to become skeptical about what God can do in people’s lives. I really needed this weekend just to give me hope. My roommate is Mormon, and sometimes I become really discouraged about that. However, I know with God, all things are possible! My group left before the outreach so they wouldn’t be caught in bad weather. However, a few weeks ago we picked up 1800 canned food items and $200 from our church’s neighborhood to donate to the Open Door Mission in Omaha. We also hope to do some sort of outreach in the near future since we were unable to do it yesterday. I hope the rest of the conference went well!

Greg, I just wanted to let you know that after the drama Friday night, I committed my life to Jesus. I thought I had before since I was raised Christian and my father is a pastor. But with events that have occurred in my life these past two years, I realized I had turned my back on God. Friday night showed me that I was being like Jordan, acting like a Christian, but not fully committing my life to Him. I now trust in Jesus and my Lord and Savior fully. Thank you for being there this weekend and allowing that drama to occur, so I could recommit my life to our heavenly father. May God continue to bless you as you spread the word to teenagers everywhere!

Hey Greg! Thank you SO much for coming to Lincoln again this year! I’m Shannon, 16, and this was my 4th year going and I almost wasn’t able to. I’m involved with show choir at my school and we were going to go to Grand Island for a competition on Saturday so I was only going to get to go to Dare 2 Share Friday night. After school on Friday however I found out that the trip was canceled due to weather. I was SOOO excited!!! Some other friends of mine in show choir and I had been upset from the beginning of the year that we were going to miss it. God really works in mysterious ways!!! At Dare 2 Share on Friday I had an amazing experience. One of my guy friends from youth group and school had brought a friend (let’s call him Tim) from school who I also knew. About a couple months ago, Tim’s dad had left a suicide note basically and left town…. he was missing for several days until his body was found. I knew all I could do was pray for him since I didn’t know him that well personally. A little while after that my friend started hanging out with Tim more at school and eventually asked him if he wanted to come to youth group/church with him. I was sitting in the arena Friday and when I saw Tim walk in with some guys from church I was so thankful! The even bigger surprise was after the drama when you asked the people to pray and ask Jesus into their heart. And then when you asked them to raise their hands if they had just trusted in Christ for the first time, his hand went up!! GOD IS SO GOOD!!! Seeing him tell my youth pastor and seeing them hug just made me start to cry! Saturday was absolutely just as amazing too. When you said that you have to see the kids at school with a sign on the foreheads, it hit me. If I did that and looked at the people like that instead of just assuming that they’ve heard the gospel I’d tell more people and have an urgency in doing so. You never know what’ll happen tomorrow. You never know if they have 24 hours. That’s all I’ll write because this is getting really long!! But I also saw you speak at my church (First E-Free) today! You did a really good job! You have an amazing gift…. thanks for sharing it with everyone!!! p.s. My brother, Sam, 12, went this year for the first time… but he’s been wanting to go since I started going. I couldn’t stop talking about it both nights!! Thanks for reaching so many people and firing them up to share their faith. God Bless, Shannon Potter

Well, Friday night was the drama night. It was a great drama, but I was not open-minded. I was bitter at God because the two people I trusted the most hurt me. I knew that the hurt will never completely go away. Greg was talking about giving your life fully to God. I remember I got soft hearted then I was like no I can’t! So, I build a wall and guard my heart and saying to myself don’t let him get to me! I didn’t. That night I beat myself up I knew I did the wrong choice. Was so afraid to give my life to God again because I tried to other times! While I was beating myself up I remembered that God does know what he is doing and that I should trust him. So, I decided to go for it, but this time when I fall over and over I am going to keep going get back up and keep going. Thanks for showing me that I shouldn’t give up!

Hey Greg. I was in Lincoln this weekend. It rocked. Our group usually goes to Acquire the Fire, but many of us enjoyed this. Our trip was cut short due to the weather back home. I really enjoyed our time we did spend. I also was excited when I found out you attended Liberty University. My dad was there about 20 years ago or so and I am going next year. I was just wondering how you liked it. Well thank you so much for taking time away from your family to reach teens for Christ. Thank you for being so encouraging and GO FLAMES!

Hey Greg, Thanks for coming this year to Game day. It was my first year, along with all of our church, attending. I grew up in a non-christian, drug using, and alcoholic family. I have been going to an Assembly of God church since I was three with one of my dad’s co-workers. I am saved, Baptized, and liveD my life for the lord. At school and throughout my family I was known as "The religious girl" or "The goody-good" and so on… But this just past school year I got sick of that mold. I kind of grew AWAY from God and barely went to church anymore and was just living my own life. But just recently I looked at my family and friends and realized I didn’t want to be like them and also realized what I was doing and becoming wasn’t me. So I wanted to get back into my previous lifestyle and grow closer to God and renew that relationship… But it seemed hard and as if I was too far away to go back, But this conference changed my mind. It helped me to remember that no matter what I have done, God will forgive me if I sincerely ask for forgiveness and he’ll love me no matter what. It also helped me to realize I also need to forgive myself. I thought it was a great conference. Every part of it was great, worship, the drama, The bible verses, every activity, the speakers, and especially when we went around Lincoln collecting cans and sharing the gospel. That was a great experience for me. I had fun through all of it and I am positive my whole church did too. I hope we are going back next year. If we do, I will be sure to bring friends, It’s a great experience. So… Thanks again! Have a great week and God bless you and your family, Jessica C.

Hey Greg, it is so awesome what God is doing through you. I think the Drama was really neat. I know people who don’t know Jesus as their savior, and I realized they would probably go to hell if they died. We stuck through the whole conference. God really worked through the outreach, that was so awesome how much we got, we will have to shoot for 22 tons next year. It was cool how it kind of worked out we had to stay in Lincoln, and our youth leader witnessed to the man at Starbucks, and the pizza guy, and the hotel workers. I Have had a really bad year this year, and the conference made me feel so much better. God Really protected me and my group, and I am so glad I got to go, even if Superchick wasn’t able to make it. – Brin (Your Stalker )

Hey Greg. This was my first year at Dare 2 Share, and I can honestly say that I’m so glad that I went. Looking at the food drive, it’s amazing what so many teenagers can do in just a few hours. It really makes me wonder what we can do with more time back in our own schools. Thank you, also, for the phone call opportunity. It was a chance that I needed to reintrodue my friend to Christ in a way he never thought of. God Bless, and stay safe on the road!

Hey Greg! I got home last night from Lincoln about 11 and it was amazing. It was my second year and the weather affected our plan a little bit but it brought our youth group closer and we got to know each other much more. Our church is going through a hard time right now trying to find a youth pastor because ours resigned a few months ago but we didn’t let that get in our way of learning and sharing our faith! Thanks so much for having and amazing ministry! P.S. I’m going to miss Rachel!! -In His Arms, Emily

Hey Greg, this was my very first Dare 2 Share and it was amazing hearing you speak. I brought my friend who had lost her faith, at first she didn’t like it and wanted to leave, but after hearing you speak and watching the dramas, she enjoyed it and was very glad that she got the opportunity to come this weekend. I really liked going around town and collecting cans and sharing the gospel. We both hope to see you next year. Autumn

hey greg, i got to meet u saturday morning downstairs, im never going to wash my hand haha just kidding. anyway this was my first dare 2 share confrence. Im from Maryville,MO. Me and my youth group all came. The drama realy had an impact on me. It just turned my life in the right direction. It just made me wonder about all my friends,family and people i don’t even know, who arn’t christians. Maryville is a great community but we have alot of non-belivers here. I go to Laura Street Babtist Church in Maryville. I don’t have a religion,i have a personal relationship with god. In these this last mounth, my walk with god has been so good. Even though i struggle with sin god still loves me. Our god is a forgiving god,and sent his son to earth to die for us,and when he died,our sins died with him. God is big, so big, that he created the universe with a thought. And we are small,but god wraps his arms around us like anygood father, and we are his children. Greg i thank you for transvering gods word to me. Without you and dare 2 share, i would still be just wondering around with a whole in my heart,that is now filled. Your friend, Jake

Dare 2 Share Staff (Sorry Greg, not just you dude!, but all of you), Thank you all so much for all you do for young people. This was my 2nd time to Dare 2 Share Lincoln and enjoyed it thoroughly. I, along with the other adult leaders from 1st Baptist Platte City, Mo, were touched as deeply as our young people were by the worship, drama, and teachings. It was so awesome that you did the ship’s bell thing with the reading of each scripture verse. The reading of God’s word should be honored each time it’s read. We were saddened by the fact that we had to leave town ahead of the storm (left about 3pm) but we all are determined to do the same type of outreach in the communities served by our church (Platte City, Weston, Dearborn, and Smithville Missouri) that we couldn’t finish in Lincoln. We thought it would be even better as we could then followup with these people like you do and do it on a face-to-face basis plus help our own United Way office in Platte City. Pray for us that we continue the work He has begun in us through your encouragement. Thanks to all of you and God Bless.

Hey Greg! This was my third year going to Dare 2 Share and I love it more every time I go! Me and my friends (from Victory Youth and Upper Room Youth!) were going door to door in a small trailer park in the ice cold rain. (Luckily, we avoided the hail.) I couldn’t feel my toes and only four people opened their doors for my group, but it was so worth it! My sister and friend didn’t want to come, but our parents (smart parents) made them go. THEY LOVED IT!!! They’re already excited for next year! Come rain, snow, sleet, hail, or whatever is thrown at us, we’re coming back next year!!! We all love you guys and what you’re doing. Thanks!

Greg, I just wanted to say thank you for taking your time this weekend to show us how to share the good news of christ in a loving way. This was my second year going to Dare2Share and I loved it even more than last year. That storm was pretty bad, we didn’t think that we would be able to go home! I was disappointed that Superchic(k) couldn’t make it but it was a blast that night. I’m just glad that Superchic(k) was safe. Thank you for taking your time to talk to me that Friday night too! I know it was getting late and you probably had stuff to do but I just wanted to tell you how great of a speaker you are and how you influenced me. I was so estatic that I met you, I had wanted and waited for that part since I had seen the Gospel Journey. Worship with Starfield was amazing, I can’t believe that you are "tight" with them! I praise God for the impact they had on my friends, not only Starfield but you and the drama as well. I was so happy to see them come to christ that night. I can’t wait till next year and hopefully I won’t put up with excuses from my friends unless they are good! You are truly amazing and I thank God for people like you and the whole dare2share team. If it wasn’t for you guys, I probably never would have gotten my life back on a strong relationship with God. I feel like I can do anything now! I feel confident in my faith, if satan tries to tempt me hopefully I will be able to stand up to him like the girl in the drama! Thank you so much! This year was the best conference I have ever been too. Good luck at the next one and tell Starfield hi for me! In christ Liz Fuller

Hey, I was one of the people at the Lincoln conference. Despite being born into Christianity, due to difficulities with my pastor, I’d been slipping away from Jesus and God and into other beliefs…but I really felt Him the other night. While I loved Starfield and the drama, evangelizing was awesome, because we talked to a total stranger with different beliefs for over a half an hour despite the hail and we met a girl who had a Bible in her coat and had just been doing some Bible study, which was so cool! I feel really inspired now to be a better Christian and show people that Jesus and God can change your life.

Dear Greg, This year was the first time our church has ever been to Dare2Share and it was a life changing experience for me. Before this weekend, i thought i was a true christian and i was goin to heaven just because i prayed and went to church. But now i know the real meaning of being a christian and that i need to be a christian every day for the rest of my life.. Not just on sundays. This weekend i put all my trust and faith in God and accepted him as my lord and savior. Everything you said this weekend helped me to accept the lord and become stronger in my faith. Thank you so much for being at Lincoln this weekend. You do great things for so many people in this world. I thank god for you and everyone who helped put on dare2share this weekend and i cant wait till next year! ~Katie~

hey greg, First i really want to let u know you are a awesome speaker and i can really follow your sermons, and i would like to tell you about my friend she is an foureign exchange student and she’s from Germany and at the begining of the school year my dad which is the pastor started the gospel journey for our high school youth group and before the gospel journey she had no clue about any religion she had never gone to church in her life and she thought church was just a thing with just a lot of rules and the first night we started the gospel journey she was really confused because she didnt under stand but then after youth group me and a few of my other friends went and talked to her and then she started to understand but said she wasnt sure because her family never had done it then i gave her my bible and i guess she had started to read it on her own. then like 3 weeks into the gospel journey we were praying at the end and we were doing popcorn prayers and she prayed that night and i was so happy. I would also like to tell you about me, im 14 years old and my dads a pastor and we have lived in the small town that we do now and we have for 8 years, since i was in second grade and now we are relocating to either an intercity church in LA or an even smaller town in elbert, CO, it has been really hard on me and i have drifed away from God and have been angry at God. When i went this weekend i have been changed ive realized thats this is what god wants of our family and im happy that he can work through my dad and me and the rest of our family and i thankful God let your have such a gift for speaking or i would still be where i was. Thank you !! Sincerely, Ashley miller

Greg I wanted to just say THANK YOU for your ministry and what you do with youth all around the country futhering the Kingdom. This was my third D2S Conference. The last 2 I was there as a youth leader, but this year I was there as an adult observer and learner. I just recently left the church where I was the Children and Youth Ministry Director at the end of January. It was not the right fit, the church and I had some differences on what Scripture said about certain areas. I feel like I can learn new information and use it when God opens the door for my next ministry oportunity. Keep up the great work – good and faithful servant! Look forward to next year.

hey greg! ok so i was just at dare to share in lincoln this last weekend and it was incredible!! your speeches and everything were amazing friday night and made me start bawling! it also reminded me of my summer camp sponsored through my church, indian hills. we travel up to wyoming every year and the speaker there is also a very powerful one, and i find myself crying through his also! i guess i just cry easily hehe. anyways, i guess the main point of what im saying is that i thought it was an incredible idea to have us call the friends that we had on our minds right then and there, and to share the gospel with them! i have to admit though, i was freaked out to do so and my hands were shaking like crazy! but, even though most of my friends chickened out, i called the person on my mind and just basically explained the whole gospel to him. i have shared it with him before, but it was a while ago and he was unwilling to change his life for God. so when i called him this time, i was not sure what to expect since he now doesnt go to my school and i rarely talk to him, but i decided to try anyways. after explaining how i was at a dare to share thing and you were making us call people (lol) he sounded very confused, and just responded to my question of "how do u think people can get into heaven?" with "umm i dont know." i then asked him if he would like to know, and he just responded with an "ummm…" but after not answering me, i said "well, im just gonna tell u anyways! hehe" and thats when i REALLY got into the gospel, saying how we are all sinners and the only way we can get to heaven is through Jesus Christ, etc. he didnt say anything during the whole time i was talking, so i just kept on going! after finishing, i was like "are you still there?" but i heard no reply, so i looked at my phone and found out that he had already hung up two minutes before i was crushed because the last thing i would expect is him just hanging up without even saying a word, so i started bawling again to my friend, kendra, because she knows him too. i have officially graduated from P.U.!! yay! haha. well anyways, since saturday night i have found myself thinking "maybe i shouldnt have called him, maybe i just made his day worse!" but i have to keep reminding myself that he will find out the truth one day, and i would have been really mad at myself if i would have chickened out that night! i just keep remembering how much i want to hear God say to me, "well done, my good and faithful servant!" that verse is amazing, but i forget the reference to it! do u think u could tell me it? and will you please pray for his salvation, as i know that God’s Word is alive and working through his life! thanks so much! you are so helpful to thousands and kids (including me!!) keep up the amazing work and God bless!! ~rachelle

Hey Greg. I just thought of an idea for a Dare-2-Share item. You guys should make a Dare-2-Share The Board Game. It would be a great way for people to learn effective ways of sharing their faith and learning even more about their beliefs and how to grow stronger. I think it would be a great idea. Anyways, that’s my idea. Thanks for listening.

I had such a good time collecting cans on saturday. The Lord was amazing. He stopped the rain right when my youth group got to our neighbor hood, and it started snowing as soon as we got to dinner after we were done. My group of three met an amazing Christian woman when we were out, and she shared her faith with us as well. This weekend changed my life. It made me realize all the things in my life that i take for granted and all the things that have become a distraction. I would also like to tell you that this weekend helped to strengthen my dream to be a youth director and public speaker. I would like to thank you, and the whole D2S crew for that. God bless, Allison

Greg, thankyou for helping me renew my relationship with the Lord. I first gave myself to God last year at D2S. And was very happy because my name was in The Book Of Life, but then this year, you made me realize that I was not living for Christ, I had said the prayer to get in the book, but I was not living my life the way that God wanted me to. So I just want to thank you form the bottom of my heart for what you did for me and what you do for every teen and adult that goes to Dare 2 Share. God bless you and Dare 2 Share Ministries.

Greg, I am so thankful for this weekend and the experience I had at D2S. I volunteered to chaperon a youth group from Iowa that a couple of my friends lead. I also went last year, and it was great, but I feel that this year was even better! I have already excepted Christ into my lift, but I really felt his presence throughout the weekend (especially in the drama which was AMAZING, and in the invasion of Lincoln) Although our group didn’t have anyone turn to Christ on Saturday, we did get a fair amount of cans for our small group size and we got a small list of prayer requests. We also graduated from PU! One house had a big sign on the window reading approximately the following "No solicitation of any kind. If you violate this right the Lincoln police will be called and they will gladly come and arrest you. This includes but is not limited to the following types of solicitors: sales men……Religious organizations (yes even you will be arrested)….." Needless to say we deemed that house an unsafe house to ring the door bell and we left. I was really excited to hear later that night about us all breaking the city record by gathering so much food. I do not know if this particular young man will post on your wall here, but I feel you should know his story nonetheless. One young man in our group (who I will keep nameless) accepted Christ on Friday night. During the time you gave for the students to go to their youth leaders and tell them if they had accepted Christ, this young man did just that. I didn’t know this at the time, but on Saturday night in our hotel room, while we were all discussing our thoughts and reactions to the weekend, he shared with us his story. I pretty much cried, it was an amazing thing to hear, and that is why I want to share it with you and everyone else that reads this posting. I really hope to be asked back by my friends next year. I will gladly keep chaperoning these trips as long as they keep asking. Thank you (and the rest of your team) for all that you do and I hope to see you again next year.

Sup Greg, I just wanted you to know, that I attended D2S in Lincoln in February of 2007, (last weekend), and I cannot thank you enough for being there and speaking, it is such a blessing to have you there. I just wanted to tell you thank you, and tell you what a great time I have at the D2S conferences! Last year was my first year, and this year, I got to come again, and find a couple of special friends who I lost years ago (one of which being the Lord). Greg, I just want to thank you again, please, PLEASE never stop doing what you are doing, so much has come of it, I can’t wait to see your honors bestowed on judgment day, because YOU are such an idol to me, I can’t express how much of an honor it is to be in your presence, and to be in the presence of the Lord with you. If you have any extra time, drop by my blog: everlasting-summer.blogspot.com Your brother in Christ, Rob

Hey Greg and crew great job this weekend. I enjoyed it so much but I am sad I cant go next year because I am a senior but it was such a great experience. You guys should bring a conference to Sioux Falls, SD or near it. It would be awesome to see the same experience happen in Sioux Falls. Also, another idea that my youth group had was the you guys should advertise Dare2Share at Lifelight, it would bring even more people to it! Great job and Keep up the good work. God Bless, Courtney

Greg, my name is Kenny Rutzmoser and i just got back from Lincoln and Praise the Lord for the great work He did/is doing! I’m a college student here in my home town, Cedar Falls IA, and have been helping as an assistant youth leader with my home church for the past two years. This was my second time at D2S and our Mighty God showed His Power again!! Two girls from our group accepted Christ this weekend! Secondly, thank you for being so, so foundationally sound in the Word of God! I am so encouraged to see such a successful and powerful ministry, holding so tightly to the Scripture. May God bless you and D2S for this. Also Greg, because of the snow we did not make it back to hear the final lesson on WIN. Personally I was looking forward to this lesson the most, and I know our kids need to hear it. Is there any place I can go to hear or read more about WINNING the reward? This weekend was SUCH an encouragement to me as an assistant leader, and i know it was earth shattering for the students! How can I pray for you?-personally, for your family, and or d2s. Please let me know. Glory to God for the work you do.

Friday morning (Feb 23) I got a call at 7:50am asking me to come to Lincoln that day for Dare2Share. Let me tell you I was elated… there was only one problem. I go to school in Kansas… nowhere near the border. I had exactly five hours to make a decision and be on the road. The decision wasn’t hard, of course I wanted to go! However, my car had been having problems over Christmas break and still wasn’t fixed. At 1:15pm I was back at the car hospital consulting with the mechanics. I honestly thought they were going to tell me Ethel couldn’t make it the three hours to Nebraska, but God was obviously at work because she was released just in time for me to run back to my dorm and literally throw a bunch of stuff in a duffel bag, fill her up with gas and hit the road (Ethel was on her best behavior until 400 miles later when I got back to school…where she promptly started smoking again…). I was an hour late to meet my youth group from home to ride the rest of the way, but they were great about it and we headed to Lincoln! The weekend was amazing for me in several different ways, but I just wanted to share one with you here. My major is youth ministry, something God has given me an ever-growing passion for. And just this year He has given me many opportunities to get a taste of that ministry. I have been to D2S at least three years as a "youth," and I loved it… but let me tell you, I absolutely LOVED being on the other side of things. God broke my heart for the kids we brought (even though most of them had started attending just this year and I didn’t know them very well at all), and I got to watch as He did amazing things in their lives. He also opened my eyes once again to how much of an impact the youth leaders I have had have made on my life. I was overwhelmed when I remembered just how much constant love they had shown me over the years, and how much love you guys show these kids every year in Lincoln. I want that. I want to learn to love them, and minister to them and let God impact their lives through me if He so chooses….and watch them impact the lives of those around them. I can’t thank you enough for what you do with these kids, and what you’ve done, and continue to do for me. Thank you for giving your life to God and letting Him do this through you!

Hey Greg, My name is Chanel and I’m a sophmore. I watched the Gospel Journey at my church and I totally loved it. I loved what questions you would ask the people. I loved seeing those people all work together normally and not criticizing about what the other person believed. Watching that really inspired me. Then I went to Dare 2 Share in Lincoln just a couple of days ago. The first night made me cry and I saw my friends accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior. And really what I wanted to say is, is that you have inspired my friends a great deal. And I thank you so much for that and for inspiring me to go out and tell the Gospel to others. I bought your book and I am only a few pages in and I already love it. I have realized alot about my life and this last weekend really helped me. I just wanted again to say thanks for being there and talking to us. It meant a great deal!! God Bless, Chanel

You wanted to know how our 48-hour challenges went so here goes it. I decided to finally take up a challenge after 3 years of fearing it. I wanted to finally bring my mom to Christ. I tried today and got compeletly turned down, and was told that she knew that she wasn’t going to heaven and that she had done too many bad things, I told her they could be forgave and she said plain and simple "I am who I am. I’m still going to keep being who I am quit talking about it, don’t push me." I’m going to keep trying but that was the biggest dissopointment that I had been waiting for 3 years, only I was hoping to succed. You did wonderful at Dare2Share, and I can’t wait till next year…….Mandy Magee

Greg, Wanted to let you know that unfortunately we left early on Saturday during the concert….but I believe it was a God thing. We went to our host house that we had and talked about what the weekend meant to us. We discussed that 1 friend that we are to Pray, Pursue, and Pursuade…and after that one by one we started to pray for those people. I don’t think we stopped crying for 2 hours, we were praying from 8:30 to 11pm….On top of the effectual fervent prayer, I believe we had more breakthroughs within the group. We appreciate your heart and direction, and I believe if last night was an indication of what this type of weekend can do, then Dare2share is serving one of the most important purposes in the body of Christ, motivating young people to get real and act on their belief in Jesus. thanks, Jeremy

Yeah Greg knows it We are all So Crazy about spreadin the word the Rain, Sleet, and Even the Snow didn’t stop us. With the people my group went with we were all doing fine or I was until we went to this house. In this house was a typical 4 person family but, they had a secret the husband had some type of cancel i his intestine, and well this was the most moving and giving family i have seen in a long long time. They were about ready to give us clothes, money, and about everything else they had. We could have talked with them for a long long time and i would have if we didn’t have a deadline to get back to there but we had to so we went on and in our hotel room that night was one of the longest time of prayer I had been in in a while. It was a moving expierence and I thank all the crazy people out there that helped get the 21 tons of cans

This is a short testimonial about how well Dare2Share prepares teens to share their faith. I am a born again Christian and a doctoral student in Philosophy at the University of Nebraska – Lincoln. I supervised a group of four Jr. High girls during the Saturday afternoon canvassing event in Lincoln, NE. The neighborhood assigned to my group was right where I knew some of my philosophy professors lived. The third house that Sabrina and Leah went to happened to be the home of my current metaphysics professor. These two Jr. High girls interacted with my professor so well that all I had to do was stand back and listen to the conversation. I did not say a word. No spiritual conversion resulted, but I was very impressed that these two Jr. High girls could take on a secular philosophy professor with such eloquence, poise and confidence. Dare2Share really does train and empower teens to share their faith.

Hey Greg, the D2S conf. in Lincolon was awesome!!! I understand the program focuses around teenagers, but for myself I’m 38, it wasn’t only an impact on our group, it lit my soul on fire!!! I want to Thank-you for your ministry and all involved. You guys have the best CEO on staff, Jesus Christ. We made it home ( St. Joseph. Mo. ) about 1:00 in the morning. The youth group stayed overnight in the church, for Sunday morning service. We all got the chance to share what happened over the week end. It was so awesome to see the youth in our church on fire. But for me, It came my turn as an adult leader to speak. I busted into tears, the Holy Spirit came upon me and tore me apart. It was that chair that sat on stage over the week end in the conf. The chair my Savior sat in and watched over thousands of people worship. That really hit home Greg. I always knew Jesus Christ was around, but that chair, seeing it set there imagianing my Lord was there really hit me. I was broken and tearful when I took the mike to share my experience with our church. I asked the pastor if I could use a chair that sat on the alter. I took the chair and placed it in the front, I didn’t have the Royal Purple robe, but I did have my Bible the word of God. I quoted Proverbs 30:5. I placed the bible in the chair, and informed the church it represented my Lord. I asked them several questions, not to answer out loud but spirtually. Greg, it tore alot of other people up to, Praise the Lord. I understand now we are going to have a special place in our santuary for our Lord…..Amen!! Thanks Greg, thanks for many tools you guys offered to us to share the Gospel. I praise the Lord now every night for your dream to reach the youth and the young at heart…….

Being 42, I also got a lot…just shows that we are all CHILDREN of God. The youth here are excited for the next one. Look forward to seeing you then. Again, God Bless!!!!

Hey Greg, thank you for the best weekend of my entire life. I always enjoy going to Dare 2 Share to listen to everything that you have to say, I also have to say that having starfeild to do the worship was awsome. When you had people take out their cell phones I loved hearing all the people that got a hold of people but there were also some people who could not one kid even left the G.O.S.P.E.L. as a messeage for his freind to receive. The girl sitting next to me from my Youth called her mom and I don’t know what happened but I pretty sure she help her mom accept Jesus Christ. I just have to say although I like listening to you the best moment was when I was on stage with Rachel Washington.

Hey greg, i really enjoyed going to game day in lincoln. It was my first year there. When we were told to call a friend and ask them what they thought about god, my friend called me back because i had to leave a message and she said that she already knew the lord. But when i talked to her, she realized that she was faking and really needed him. She is a part of my youth group and she quit going before the dare 2 share gameday. But after i talked to her, she is going to start going again. And on that night also, i had realized that i needed the lord too. And i accepeted him into my life. Thanks again for coming to lincoln.

Hey Greg, So first of all I had a total blast at D2S this last weekend. I am a sore throat today from that storm that came it but who cares we still had the oppertunity to share Jesus Christ with so many people. I came as a youth sponsor for my youth group, I am a freshman in College but have been to D2S before and didn’t want to miss it this year. As always God was amazing!! We had I believe 8 or 9 youth that gave their heart to the Lord for the first time and many others rededicated their lives me being one of them. I started to read your book and oh my is it good!! I was reading about your brother and today in my classes I have shared the Gospel with everyone I sit by. Yeah some think I am a freak and some think I am a weirdo but I am at that stage where I just don’t care. As for the challenge this year because I didn’t have service in the building I wasn’t able to call my friend. However, I did send her a text message. I told her how I went to the conference and we were suppose call a friend. I told her I didn’t have service and that is why I was texting her. I told her that I didn’t know where she stood with Jesus Christ and I didn’t want to stand before Him and know I missed the oppertunity to share Him with her. Some of the teens in my youth group came and met you after the service, I felt really torn that’s why I didn’t come down. She texted me back and told me she was 98 percent sure she was going to Heaven. I told her that i wanted to make sure it was a 100 and asked if we could talk Monday. She never texted me back. So today back at school I texted her to see if I had upset her she said no. So I asked her if we could talk more about it and she told me she was busy I told her it didn’t have to be today but sometime this week. She blew me off and I’m at peace about it. I don’t believe she has put her trust in Jesus Chirst but I am not the one that can judge that and I know now that I have tried to show her His mercy and I will keep trying. However, as we got back to our motel room on Saturday night, I started to read you book and my heart and mind were so busy thinking and wondering about all the methods you guys taught us about how to share our faith. I decided I was going to make a move. I took my phone and the messege I sent to my friend at the actual conference. I sent to every single person in my phone book that I was unsure if they knew Jesus Christ as their Savior. Sadly I only got one text back and it was that he was a believer of Jesus Christ. My heart rejoiced knowing he was a Christian buy my heart really ached for all the friends in my phone book that didn’t text me. I know you told us that maybe they would blow us off. I am okay with that factor, however it still hurts. So I went on with my night. Then Sunday after we attended church at our denominations church in Lincoln, (I drove a van) and on the way home all these girls started asking me questions. I answered some and then on some I told them I didn’t know BUT I would find out. These are some really personal question and I told them I would e-mail you and see if you could e-mail me back so we could discuss some of these questions. I had three 3 girls in my van that had excepted Christ for the first time Friday night and are hungry but feel like they are moving in the right direction. SO I told them I would blog you and see where we go from there!!! THANK YOU SOOOO much for all you do!! Dare 2 Share is so great and I look forward to it each and every year!!! ><> Angie

Hey Greg, I’d just like to say thank you so very much. I learned SO much last weekend. When I got home, I talked to my friend Adam about Jesus. He isn’t saved, and I asked him where he thought he would go if he died now. He opened up, and I think I planted a seed. I’ve always had trouble with sharing my faith, but last night I was ON FIRE. Praise God. He can do all things!

hi greg. i dunno if you remember me but i’m the girl who talked to you on sunday at e-free about talking to my parents about becoming a christian. my mom flipped and my dad thinks i shouldn’t make this decision in a haste. he thinks the only reason i’m doing this is because i’m scared and i’ve been influenced by my friends at youth group and all the people at dare 2 share. i told him how happy i felt when i finally decided to accept christ and he said i didn’t need to be a christian to accept him. he doesn’t understand what’s going on in my mind. he doesn’t know everything that’s going on and every time i try to tell him he comes up with another reason why i shouldn’t. i’ve talked to my friends and they all are very supportive and despite what my parents tell me i’m not taking back my decision. i can’t go back to living the life that i did before christ. i’ve never been happier than that moment when i raised my hand in a huge place full of teenagers. my heart felt like it was going to burst with happiness and i couldn’t stop crying. but my dad doesn’t share my enthusiasm and i’m starting to think i should have just not told him. whether or not they agree with me or not i can never be a hindu (or more accurately sanatan dharm since hindu was the name given to indians by outcasts) because i never truley was one. the only reason that title was given to me was because i was born into this family. i want to be a christian but i don’t have my family’s support. please help me. and thank you so, so much for making me think and having me realize what i was missing. i can never thank you, my friends, or Him enough. thank you.

Hey greg heres my 48 hour challenge I called my cousin and talked to her for the cell fone challenge. My grandma has been really sick and she was not gonna make it…. She had been suffering for the last 3 months this last month being the worst… My cousin was so upset and crying on the fone she didnt understand y grandma was suffering and in so much pain…. I shared jesus with her and she accepted him… I took longer than the four mins u gave us but i went downstairs and finished talking to her… Before i hung up the fone she said ame i know u believe in prayer will u pray with me i said yes and asked her if she had any prayer request and she said that god would just take grandma to heaven if it was her time. and that grandma wouldnt hav to suffer anymore. and also that her and her mom could get some rest… Well i called her and it was 930 her time… at about 230 am my aunt called my dad and told him that my grandma had passed away sometime between 10pm and 2am. So we think it was an answer to prayer…. Pray for us that every thing will go ok my dad, mom and I am not taking well…. Thanks alot greg… Love always, Ame

Greg-Dare 2 Share is an amazing minstry! It is vital that teens learn how to tell others about Christ! I praise God for this expeirence with my Youth!!! Christ is working through each of us and I pray that they become more bold…. our time on earth is short and again learned that through a tragedy! A classmate of mine who also was at Dare 2 Share this weekend died sunday evening! I do not know the reason God chose to take him, but i do know that God has always worked through his life. He was one of those that would always live like Christ was the center of his life! He was friends with everyone, and was bold in his faith and always had a smile on his face and kind words to say! He loved Jesus and you could tell by his actions, his talk, and everything about him! BUT I do know those teens that had him lead them this past weekend were affected by his passing, because if I knwo anything about this young man he was courageous and easy to Love! I pray for those students and hopefully the lesson they learn through this tragedy but at the same time its not a tradedy he is dancing with JESUS and so excited to be where he is! Greg, I ask you to keep his family and friends in your prayers and also all those youth who were touched by him! Thank you Again for an amazing expeirence!! As a Youth Leader, it was one of the most rewarding things i’ve ever done! In Christ

Greg I just thank God for your ministry and the heart of the ministry to expand the kingdom……not just your little corner of the world. As a pastor of a rural church in Kansas we drove 5 hours because we’ve seen the fruit of your program. In 2001 I was a counsler at a camp…..and a boy came from Denver that had been at a D2S conference and it changed his life and I was amazed that he told me that! I have been involved with Dare 2 Share since 2003. I like how you make it real for the kids with the media and tech stuff. I praise God for you staff that contacts us all year and it’s a blessing to us and small church. We don’t have a big youth group or a big budget but we have seen a big change in the kids. We didn’t end up going home early despite the weather, I just felt lead to stay. We didn’t even get home for service, because of the weather we had to get a hotel room. I felt that God wanted us to stay so our youth (7 kids) could call their friends on Saturday night. Our youth were very broken by the skit on Friday night……everyone was in tears. We had 1 or 2 recieve Christ and the other rededictated their lives. Before we went home on Sunday morning I challenged the youth to share their faith with people at school. Sunday morning at McDonald’s I and another of our youth prayed with a man stranded in Lincoln after a fight with his band, musician.

Wow, you certainly made an impression in Lincoln this weekend!! The kids are talking, networking, and they’re excited about who they saw at “old Pershing”. Aside from all the “N’s” we hope your experience with our city and our youth was a good one. Even though the “buffalo blood” shows through, we appreciate your leadership and enthusiasm. :0) As a mom, it is great to have my teen come home EXCITED about her faith, sharing, and fellowship, and with some music with great messages……. Keep it up, go with God and (I can’t help it!) GO HUSKERS!!!!! (youth, into the world……)

Greg, Wow! that’s really all I can say about this weekend. This was my first year @ d2s and I LOVED IT!!! I’m already making plans to come back next year! I have grown up a christian but this has really opened my eyes as to what that really means. You made it really easy to understand what you were saying and I could totally relate! The drama was my all time favorite part. When they reached the part where Jordan was taken away I started to bawl.While I havn’t done some of the things she did i realized that the sins i’ve done are just as bad. You’re message really got the point acrossed to me and that night I could feel God’s presence. As I cried during the drama I could feel him hugging me,telling me it would be alright. As well as strengthining my faiththis has also boosted my self- confidence. I find it easier to stand up for what i believe in and that is an amazing gift. I hope to see you next year and am already looking forward to it!Keep up the good work!! You really are an inspirationto all of us!!! GO HUSKERS!!!!!!! and God bless!!~KT

Hey Gregg. Dare 2 Share was AMAZING!!!!!! And this year, i did the 48 hour challenge. This is the first year of the 5 years that ive gone that i have actually gone through with it. And i just was wanting to let you know how it went like u asked. ok…..well……i have asked 4 of my friends so far if they have believed in God, and they have all said yes. But 2 of them didnt even take me seriously. And the other two, they are actually listening to me. They are asking me questions that they have, and so far, ive been able to answer them. (with some help) But you know whats really hard for me to do? Its hard for me to explain completely why i believe in christ, i mean, i can think of a ton of different reasons, but its just so hard for me to put those thoughts into words. So, one of my friends started out at being about 80% sure that she was going to go to heaven, and i have been talking to her about it for the past couple of days. And my other friend, she started out at 80% also, and i have been talking to her for a couple of hours, and she is now 97.5% sure. So, i am really proud of myself, but im still kind of confused on what to say next. So, can you help me??? i would love it if you could e-mail me at brandyrocs@hotmail.com. Thank you SO much Gregg!!!! I cant wait to hear from you!!! And i cant wait to see you again next year!!!!! I know its going to be good!!!!!! P.S. Go Huskers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In Christ, Brandy Fuller

Greg, i just want to let you kno that your message was amazing. It really made me examine my life and realize what is important. I was just really feeling the preesance of God in the building all night. I was really excited because not only did i commit to serving the lord with all i have, my best friend who was there with me accepted christ. I accepted your 48 hour challange and shared the gospel with my friend. He was really accepting of it and understood what i was saying. Although he didnt accept christ, a seed has been planted in some really rocky ground. Thank you for all youve done in my life and in my youth group at Laura street baptist church in Maryville, MO. God bless, Brady

This was my first experience with D2S. I was an adult sponsor for my church and am already thinking I will come back next year. It was an amazing experience for me on a personal level, but also because I got to see these kids I see every week acting differently and changing before my eyes. I had a great time and I am so glad that you come to Nebraska.

Hey greg!!! i know it is late but as you know in gods eyes we are never late about talking about him!! LOL anyways Dare2Share was awesome. I cried, I prayed, i hugged people, i even cried some more. and you may ask why but I ACCEPTED CHRIST INTO MY LIFE THAT NIGHT AT DARE2SHARE!!!!! and i have you to thank for that. Because you showed me the path to christ and that i need to pray for everyone and everything, not just the people i know but the people i don’t know. And the story about the boy who was crippled. Well i really took a perspective on that, because i used to sin all the time, no matter what it was i did it…..oops…… and yes i know that sinning is bad becuase it is satan saying it but all people do it. but right now all i have been doing i praying to god and sharing the gospel. I was so proud of myself becuase me and my best friends boyfriend ben saw this homeless guy outside of amigos and of course i gave him a dollar but then when i thought about it i was like "you know ben maybe we should share the gospel with this guy" And he agreed. So we went over there and shared the gospel. Afterwards when i was walking away i felt like i had changed someones faith in christ. Hopefully i strengthened it!!! But after taht i just wanted to go out and share the gospel with everyone i knew. but unfortunately when we had to go get cans the weather was bad so me and my group had to go back. Oh i really hope you guys collected alot of cans, cause i wish i would’ve!!!!!! Anyways always remember this question "DO YOU DARE2SHARE?" Luv Katie Curtis of Nebraska City!!!!! WOHOO!!!!!!

Hey, Greg – I’m a youth leader with a group from Kansas City who attended D2S in Lincoln. We weren’t deterred by the weather – we stayed through Saturday night. And I’m so glad we did. Our group was sooo challenged – leaders included. I was so wowed by the response to the phone challenge and 48-hour challenge! Yesterday I took the "dare" and approached a gal I work with about her relationship with Christ. She was really open and frank, and expressed an interest in a Bible study! Woo-hoo! We’re planning to have our youth share about the weekend with our church this Sunday. The boldness of our kids will hopefully be a "dare" for our church members to share their faith with courage as well.

Four of us just SKATED our way back from a Dare2Share conference in Lincoln, NE this weekend. On the surface it looks like just another fun conference for teens : Top-notch music, awesome staging, excellent speakers with lots of great information to share. But as a parent, I came away with enough food for thought to feed a small army (just ask them at work, I think I may have started a feeding frenzy!) I was drenched (in love!) with buckets of icy cold spiritual truth that brought me to a new level of awareness - Where is my focus? Whether I’m walking down the hallway at work, cruising the mall, or sitting in church; am I focused on me and my own comfort zone, or am I painfully aware of the greatest need of anyone I encounter. . . a genuine, growing, active relationship with Jesus? Where am I on my own spiritual journey? Am I a rebel, a poser, or am I a loser for Christ? Where are my friends on their spiritual journey? Now wide awake to the reality around me, I was eager to learn. But this wasn’t just a lecture class, oh no no no! They actually expected me to do what they’d been teaching me. (And if I’d stepped out to the bathroom, or been spacing off? Too bad, just do the best you can with what you know). And then off we went into the wet, soggy streets of Lincoln. It felt like a wading pool in more ways than one. I had never done an evangelistic outreach to people I’d never met before. In some ways I felt like a toddler splashing around in a wading pool. But my daughter was watching me. . . and this was her second time at Dare2Share. I’ve always taught her that anything worth doing it worth doing badly until you can do it well – and now it was time for me to model it for her. It was an unforgettable experience. Looking back I realize I missed some opportunities – but my earthly father always taught me – “It’s OK to make a mistake, as long as you learn from it.” It’s not easy to step out of your comfort zone but. . . I DARE YA!

Greg- Thank you for living your passion and igniting a fire in our youth. This was our 5th year at D2S, and as expected it was great. Our students were blown away by the drama and the cell phone challenge. I must admit my heart crawled into my throat when you told us to call our friends. The last 2 years I’ve attended D2S my person has been the same. It’s not that she doesn’t know the gospel, it’s just she grew up catholic and with what’s been in the news lately about the catholic church is very resistant and cynical of any religion. She’s been a work in progress, and it’s been a journey. So I shed a few tears, said a great big, it’s not about me and all about You prayer, and called. She answered and we discussed where she was in her search for God. She wants to find a church family to further search out Jesus, and I am going to help her do that. If it’s not my church I will go with her until she finds a place to grow closer to God. Thank you, thank you, thank you- for giving me the shove I needed to boldly talk to her about Jesus. Keep up the great work and know what you are doing matters and it’s making a difference. Jami Lee

I got something different from Dare2Share than I was expecting. I went in expecting to learn how to share my faith more effectively than beating people over the head with the Bible, and I did learn a lot. But I got so much more. I grew up in church and wasn’t saved until a couple years ago. Then I surrendered completely in baptism, realizing it was an act of obedience. And then I surrendered to full time ministry at camp last year. But at Dare2Share, I did something that needed to be done before baptism and ministry. I had accepted Christ as my savior, but I didn’t know the entirety of what that meant. I believed in God and Jesus, the sacrifice, and the resurrection. But now I understand more with my heart. I prayed to give every day to God, and I told Jesus that I want Him to take every ounce of me and I’m trusting in Him alone for every single breath. The Lord had been working on me through church and Bible studies, and I told him that I’m done keeping parts of my life. Now I’m trusting Him fully, and I know what that means. I believe I was truly saved before, but now I know absolutely for sure, and I can’t wait to see you in Heaven!

Hey! This was my first time at Dare2Share in Lincoln Nebraska. It was so awesome and I can’t wait till next year! My friend from school went with another one of my friends and accepted Christ. It moved me and a bunch of my friends during your preaching and the drama. You are such a great person to be going around telling teenagers about Christ and preaching to others. I’m sorry I didn’t go to church on Sunday because you came and talked at my church, but my mom loved the first service so much that she had to go to both services! I had a volleyball tournament and I wanted it to be cancelled because I really, really wanted to go and I literally cried!!!!! Thanks for all that you do and I hope to see you at next years Dare2Share!!!

Greg, Before I came to Dare2share I though I put all of my trust in Jesus Christ, but really I didn’t. On Friday night I left the auditorium crying the hardest I’ve ever cried. The drama was amazing because I realized I was going to heaven, but also I was scared to death that some of my best friends weren’t going to have eternal life with Jesus. On Saturday, at the 48 hour challenge my best friend Jessie and I called our other Jewish friend Jordan. She didn’t answer so we left a message on her phone. Later that night she texted us saying, "Oh my gosh guys. U made my cry. I love u guys so much and I really wanna hear what u believe. What’s important to u is important to me." Without the 48 hour challenge we wouldn’t have had the confidence to talk to her about the Gospel. Thank you sooooo much for the challenge. Also Jessie and I got the I Believe shirts. We wore them to school and at lunch people started talking about what they believe. We invited 2 people to our church and are hoping they can hear the good news of Jesus. u r so awesome! -Melissa

Greg- Dare 2 Share was AMAZING! I really think that I sorta lost my faith with god. Sure I went to church everyday and I said that I was a christian, but I don’t think I put my whole trust into him and I also think that I didn’t act like a christian before. Now I watch what I say and I’ll notice when I say his name in vain-I just want to say thanks cause going to this year’s conference it has really made me open my eyes to everything around me. Before I never really asked people what their religious beliefs were and now I’m trying to convince my Agnostic friend to accept Christ. I don’t know how well it’s going, she nows exactly what to rebutal with and exactly what to say to make me forget everything I had just planned on saying. But I’m not letting that stop me cause I know if she doesn’t accept Christ she will spend enternity in hell. And if I can change that I’m going to for sure try. Also going out and collecting cans for people’s city mission, I was amazed that we collected a record or 21 tons of canned food. It was an amazing feeling to know that I helped out with collecting some of those cans. I’m really glad that I went and also stayed when the wether got bad, it was an unforgettable experience.

Greg, I wanted to tell you how my friend came to know Christ. Well as you know she went to D2S like me but at first I thought she wouldn’t be into it that much because she doesn’t seem like the person who is. So I was at my volleyball tournament on Sunday and I was texting her on my phone and I asked her what she learned at D2S. She replied me back by saying that she thinks that she excepted Christ and I asked her if she had told anyone in her family about Christ. She said that she tried to tell her brother but 1. he wouldn’t listen, 2. she didn’t know how and I promised her I would help her in anyway I could. We also promised that the next time we both were at her house that we would try and convince him to come to Christ. That same day she told me her and her family for the first time were going to attend church. I invited her to come to my church sometime and last week she was begging me to come to my youth group. She also changed her myspace heading to "I don’t care what people say anymore, I HAVE GOD!!!" I just wanted to go up and hug her even though we were just texting back and forth. She says she wants to go with me next year to Dare2Share and I CAN’T WAIT!!!!!

Hi, my name is Mariah and I would just like to say that I have been a Christian all my life, and D2S was ABSOLUTLEY AWESOME!! I had never been to one before and it was amazing, it was like nothing I had ever experienced before in my life!! I really enjoyed going out and talking to people about Jesus and collecting canned goods! At first I was really nervous but after I did it a couple times, it was awesome..the even better part was one of the girls from my church asked the people at one of the houses if they had any pray requests and they told her..and she prayed for them right then and there with them!! it was awesome!! I am soooo excited for next year!!! Thank you for the best weekend of my entire life!!!!

Hi its Emily again on amandas computer. Guess you would never guess we were friends. I know but we are. To this day, almost a month after the Lincoln Dare2Share we still talk about it and it comes up in my everyday conversations. My friend Shayla and I are always reminding each other about the gospel journey. Everytime we hear someone use bad language we always remind them to ask God for forgiveness even if we dont know them. We just dont like to hear people using bad language. Also we remind each other of the 10 commandments just so we dont forget. I still think you’re the greatest pastor ever and so does everyone at First Evangelical Free Church. well its past my bed time so nighty night!!!!!! sleep tight dont let the bed bugs bight…..just kidding!!!!!!! bye bye!!!!
