   • Hey!! I was at YEC in Macon, GA the past two days! I just wanted to let you know that my youth group and I enjoyed your message so much! We talked about it the whole way home (we went home just because we live only 30 minutes away from Macon). It was very meaningful and very true… I ask that you keep Hardwick Baptist Church in your prayers to become better LOSERS!!

   • I was at YEC this weekend and OH MY STARS it was AMAZING! you are an awesome speaker and you really put things in prospective for me. I have recently gone through a bad time with friends who are as close as family. I come from a group of posers and some rebels. This past two days totally changed everything though. I can not believe just how life altering YEC was for me. I CHOOSE TO LOOSE! I am going to show all my friends how great it is to be a Loser (totally doing that 48 hour challenge! I’ll let you know how that goes). Thank you so much! My life, for the first time, seems complete now that I can honestly say that I AM A LOSER!!!! AMAZING! ~Gracey

    • Its me again :D Im doing the 48 hour challenge. My friend Heather really needs Jesus in her life bc she is going through a hard time! She is pregnant, the baby’s dad left her bc he didnt want it, she’s not in school most of the time and shes having problems at home. So I chose to talk to her. The reason i waited so long is bc i was scared but since i bought the Dare 2 Share book it has helped a lot. I cant talk to her except through email. so I sent her a messege telling her about Jesus Christ. I wish i could talk to her in person but i cant. She hasnt replied yet and Im just praying that she will accept Jesus Christ as her savior! I told her if she had any ?s dont be afraid to ask. I also use the "Rebels, Posers, and Losers speech(I loved that by the way! you were awesome @YEC). I told her how im a loser and i told her what they meant!  So please pray for her. When she replys I’ll let you know what she Says! God Bless Brianna

    • Ok! Its me again. umm My friend Heather replied and she told me that she was ok. she was going to raise the baby on her own with the help of family and friends. she told me that i need to be worring about the baby’s daddy not her. Im not giving up im going to keep talking to her about it. but its just hard knowing that she doesnt know when it’ll be her time to go and she’ll go to hell if she doesnt recieve Christ. Tomorrow isnt promised. Im kinda disapointed or discouraged that all she relpied was ok. but i know its not that easy. Is there anything else i can do? Im praying for her. Please pray for both of us. God Bless Bri

    • hey greg! yeah, i went last year. it was like the cooolest thing ever! wen u had us go door to door collecting cans for the sunshine ministries, me and my friend really got in to some deep conversation with this one kid. he kept asking us questions and we answered them as best as we could. he asked us one question, like, "so if i keep doing all these bad things, God will still 4gie me?" we answered, "he loves u so much, that no matter how much u have sinned, he has forgiven u." he was really shocked by this answer. i hope that answer has changed the way he looks at things. i dont remember his name, but if u can pray for him, that would b great! if u could write to me at imasmarteronekt@sbcglobal.net that would b awesome, so i can send u more about wat we did and how we spoke the GOSPEL! bye bye! kt

    • yes i was at yec also in macon thses past few days. it was a life changing experience and i feel so much closer to god now. i asked god for a new desire to want to know his word and i know only he an do that now. many kids in our youth group made new decisions and one gorl that i was having confrontations with recently who doesnt have such a good reputation was there from my small town. i was so suprized when i saw mascare down her cheeks so i made another decision to ask her forgiveness. those who forgive will be forgiven right? much love! <3 ashley

    • I was at YEC in Macon and it was amazing!!! I was actually with a different church from a different town, so the person I wanted to reach, my younger brother, was in a different city. I got home today and plan to share God’s word with him in the next 48 hours and hopefully he will recieve Christ as his Savior! I have talked to him about it before (I am the only one in my family that attends church) and I have met some resistance. He knows who God is in his head, but is having a hard time accepting him into his heart. If you would please pray for him and pray I can reach out and bring him to Jesus! God bless!  -Kelly D.

    • I was @ YEC in Macon and it was really touching. Greg your message effected my life in many ways.  I bought your book and started reading. I am a 20 year old female and I am dating someone who does not mind going to church with me, but necessarily does not go…. I love him so much though I had no idea if he was saved or not.  So last night I called him and told him how much I love him and I wanted him to think about where he was going if something was to happen to him…. I cried and he listened, but I planted a seed and now I am going to pray. Please Pray for him! I believe that God put people in our lives to help us and we are supposed to help them… He has helped me through my school stress, my family’s crisis and everyday life! Thanks again for you amazing message at YEC, also our youth/college classes at church are all going to go through your book!– Jessica

    • Greg,       I just wanted to tell you my story. I was among the teens at Y.E.C Macon, 2006 and you changed my life forever. I came there a poser and I did not really see what I was missing out on. After hearing you talk I decided I want to be a loser. I took you commitment and I followed through with it. I told my friend Ashley all about what I had now and how great it is. She pushed me away but I am going to keep trying, and keep telling everyone about Jesus. Thank you. Britney

    • Hey Greg I just wanted to let you know that I am a loser and I bought the Loser t-shirt and it is a great conversation starter. There are a lot of people who look at me strange when I wear the shirt, but there are some who ask about it and for me it has been a great way to witness to people since the hard part for me is to start the conversation! U and your team keep up the good work with what you guys do! God is definally working through you guys! I look forward to seeing you in St. Louis! Melissa

    • Please remember my 17 year old daughter, Lindsey, in your prayers. She was raised in church and gave her life to Christ at the age of 13.  She started rebelling at 14, a little more than 3 years ago. Her father and I divorced in 2005, not what I prayed for, but these things happen when both man and wife aren’t living for the Lord as one. Along with all the normal "mother - daughter" issues, some behavior is beyond the norm and I feel as though Lindsey is being strangled, manipulated and confused by Satan. Regardless, she is still responsbile for her own actions, but I am so concerned for her soul and well-being.  I found this website through a friend who forwarded the "shoveling snow" story.  I can see that this blog is geared towards teens who are serious about Christ and their faith. I ask you each, if God lays Lindsey on your heart, to PLEASE pray for her.  As her Mother, who loves the Lord and her very much, I covet your prayers! all my best, in Jesus Name, ~ Robin
