Jammin’ with Fresh and friends

Posted on Friday 2 June 2006 by Greg @ 2:00 pm
Filed under: Rants

This weekend I’m in California at an event sponsored by Fresh speaking to somewhere around 5,000 Korean young people. I’ve done other events sponsored by this same team and I must say that sharing God’s Word with these young people ranks right up there with my favorite speaking "gigs".

I love Charles Kim (who leads it). I love Starfield (who leads worship for it). And I especially love the young people who attend it. They are on the leading edge of what I believe will be a student led, worldwide spiritual awakening that will revolutionize the church as we know it in America and across the globe.

Tonight and tomorrow night (it’s Friday afternoon right now) I’ll ask my friends at Fresh to post their comments on this blog about how they are choosing to lose themselves this summer for the sake of Jesus. My prayer is that among these young people there would be no more rebels or posers but only losers (see Matthew 10:39 for further explanation!)

As you read their comments this weekend (keep checking back in), pray with me that my five thousand or so friends would become a radical, revolutionary army of God loving, people serving, gospel sharing evangelists. Pray with me that God uses them in a powerful way to advance his kingdom for his glory!

See you losers later…

Signed, Greg Stier

I wore my Loser shirt the other day and I told a youth leader about D2S. Maybe that’s another group going to Seattle next year. Pray for it, please!

    • hey nice message.  I’ve felt the usual spiritual moving from other fresh messages and have decided to change, but i usually end up not doing it, but your message penetrated my problem and i thank you for enlightening me with the knowledge of how to lose myself.  I have decided to be a loser and to change my life at school, home, and on myspace =) haha.  Thanks hope you see you again!

    • Thank You for speaking God’s message yesterday at Sarang. it really moved me and i really do want to become a loser for Christ.

      I was deeply moved when you talked about overcoming our Giants by knowing God and making Him known. I have a problem with the internet right now, and no matter how much i try to stop, the temptations always seem to big for me to handle. The internet is my Giant.

      But because of your message, i was truely moved to know God more and I truely believe that God will give me the strength to defeat my Giant.

      Thank you for opening my eyes.

    • I really enjoy listening to your words Pastor Greg Stier.  I met you for the first time last year in JAMA and your words have touched my heart.  I also attended FRESH today, and you touched my heart again.  We ARE LOOOSERS for God!  Thank you for speaking great words for teens and I will continue to pray for your missionary and that many teens will be touched by your words.  I am going to Arizona this summer to speak God’s word to ppl there.  I am loosing First 3 weeks of Summer for God. I will be grateful if you can pray for me that I will not be scared to share God’s word.  This is my first time and I am nervous but I pray God will lead me to his way.  Thank You Greg Stier.

    • Thank you so much for speaking at Fresh! You helped me open my eyes, and have helped me decide to become a true loser for God. My giant was being afraid of being rejected or looked down upon by spreading God’s Word, especially at my school, but now I vow to be a loser. Thank you again, and may God continue to bless you.
