Dare2Share

Well here I am in Minnesota gearing up for our 5th Dare2Share event. For those who are not familiar you can check out this awesome ministry at dare2share.org.  These teen conferences are all about training teens in sharing their faith with their friends. The conference each range 4000-6000 teens. It is a very electric atmosphere! It was because of these conferences that Clear Vision Drama Company is still alive. Two Novembers ago I was very close to putting the padlock on the door of Clear Vision thinking God was going to close the door on our ministry. Then one day the phone rings and it was Director and founder Greg Stier of Dare2Share. We had met several years ago at a Youth Conference in Illinois. When Greg found about our ministry he was very intrigued,because they use drama heavily within the conference. Long story short,the timing was just not right in the partnership. So, honestly I was not expecting a call several years later reopening the possibility of being the drama team for Dare2Share. I met with Greg and his staff a few times,even wrote a sketch with them,to see if we could brainstorm well together. Well I guess we did,because here we are. This years conferences are almost in the books and it won't be long until we are praying,and writing for next years! I am very thankful for that phone call,because I was actually content with closing that chapter of 10 years being on the road. We have seen over 30,000 people come to Christ,countless testimonies of teens being impacted by our dramas,the places traveled,new relationships formed, and just experiencing God everywhere we went. But, apparently God is not through with us yet. There are still many more adventures on the horizon...and those are yet to be seen.
