So what is the American Gospel Tour? (And Multitude Monday)

So today is Multitude Monday.

 

 

One of my things I am very thankful for is the American Gospel Tour.

 

 

And yes that is the answer to my last post ;)

So I am sure that many people have heard me speak of the American Gospel Tour 

(Click to view our website)

but if you are wondering what exactly we are I thought I would share our vision with you

and also ask you to pray for us as the Lord continues to open doors.

Mission:

Our mission is to travel across the United States,  stopping along the way,  whether it be at a park,  a gas station, or a street corner, and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.  We also believe the Lord has called us to speak to our generation  about living a totally sold-out life for Jesus. Overall, this generation of Christian young people live lives of compromise.  We go to church on Sunday and Wednesday nights, then for the rest of the week we live no different then the world. If we are going to say that we are Jesus followers, then we need to prove it by living like Him. In 1 Corinthians 9:14 it says,  “ Even so has the Lord commanded that   they which preach the gospel should live the gospel.”   God didn't suggest that we live the gospel, He commanded it.  Why aren't we obeying that command? We need to be living the gospel 24 hours a day,  7 days a week.  When you commit your life to Jesus, you can't just commit for Sundays and Wednesdays, it has to be your whole life. This is the message we want to take to the Christian teens of America. Matthew 28:18-20 says, “Go therefore, and teach all nations,  baptizing them in the name of the Father,  and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit:  teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:  and lo I am with you always even to the end of the world.  Amen.”  This is the Great Commission.  It says to  go and teach  (or preach)  to all the nations,  (sharing the gospel) teaching them to observe everything that I (Jesus) have commanded you (teaching and speaking in churches).  Our desire for this trip is to both:  share the gospel on the road  and teach in churches.  My sister Jen wrote that mission statement almost two and a half years ago. God has been so gracious in opening doors since. We have grown a lot since the Lord gave Jen the vision for the American Gospel tour. One thing that we have realized is that a life lived from Christ starts here. It starts now. Being in ministry does not just been traveling across America in an RV. It means going and evangelizing at parks. It means handing a lady in walmart a tract. It means going and sharing Jesus with your neighbors. It means serving others. It starts here. It starts now. God has opened many doors since we started obeying Him in the small things. Our dream to travel across America has started right were we are at! We have been able to go to various churches in our area and share with so many people. We also are going to be traveling to Key West, FL this January and receive training as well as open  air evangelizing at Mallory square! God is so amazing!  The things He is doing are amazing! So if you want to please pray for us we would really appreciate it! Do you have a facebook?  You can like our page and get regular updates (You can follow my link on the sidebar). We also have started a team blog and you can go visit that (and follow it): The American Gospel Tour Blog.   So here are the faces of our team:
