Who We Are
We’re a team of young adults who have a passion for honoring & serving Jesus Christ with our lives. One of the ways that God has been working in us is by giving us a heart for inspiring people to go hard after Him. We’ve seen the apathy in our lives, and the lives of other Christians, and we want to do something about it. We don’t feel that we’re better in this area than other people, at least not by our own power, but we do feel that God has given us the grace to want to go hard after Him, and we want to inspire others to do the same. We also believe that every Christian is a missionary in the sense that we should all be presenting the gospel to those around us. We take the Great Commission very seriously, and as a command. We want to be bold in sharing our faith, but even more than that, we want to be bold in living it out. God is everything to us, and it is a great pleasure to serve Him. May the Lord be glorified in all things!

A Word from Jen
"In June of 2008, the Lord laid it upon my heart to take the gospel across America. He had been preparing me for almost a year. As I looked around at people walking on the street or driving past me I had to ask myself, 'Who will tell these people about Jesus?'. Up until this point, I had thought that the preachers, evangelists, and missionaries should be sharing the gospel. It was their job, their calling, their ministry, not mine. But the Lord really started to convict me about this. The Great Commission is not limited to preachers, evangelists and missionaries. It is for every Christian everywhere. As far as I am concerned, that means me. When the Lord told me to take a team and go across America sharing the Gospel everywhere we stopped, I thought it was just a radical idea that I would love to do. The Gospel Tour has to be more than something crazy to do for 10 weeks. It has to be about Jesus Christ and the people who are dying every single day, every single hour, and every single minute and going to Hell for eternity because we aren't telling them about Him. Lets not wait for some big trip across America or a voice from heaven telling us exactly what we need to be doing. Jesus already gave us the command. God gives each and every one of us opportunities every single day to evangelize and live out the great commission, so why aren't we? We need to wake up and respond to the call."
