The Bring One Campaign
What if the body of Christ committed to BRING ONE?
The arena schedule will open with Heaven shaking worship and preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ. At the very start of this historic event we will offer salvation, redemption and mercy to those who are far from God.

The Gospel means “good news”. The good news is who Jesus is, what He did, and how what He did changes our lives. According to Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:1-11, these are the essentials of the good news:
-
Christ died for our sins according to the scripture.
-
This means we all are sinners in need of Christ's sacrifice.
-
He was buried and raised on the third day according to the scripture.
-
This means we are not saved by our own works but by His grace alone.
-
This gospel is only received by faith and believing these things to be true and the only way to salvation.
To put this in context with the whole of the Bible, simply put:
God created us to love and be loved by Him. From the beginning man chose sinful ways to find satisfaction and fulfillment, instead of God. This left God and man separated by sin. But God loved man so much that He sent His own Son to pay the debt of sin, a debt that man could not afford. Through Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection, God and man are reconciled back together. Now, when a person chooses to believe that Jesus is the resurrected Son of God, receive His sacrifice, and repent from their sin, God empowers them with His grace to live as He originally desired. This is good news that we don’t have to live in brokenness and loneliness; we have a God who is near!

This is not an exhaustive list, nor is this a set of rules. These are simply tools that can help you.
-
Pray - ask for the Lord’s guidance and help.
-
Prepare - know the Word, have questions, stories, and your testimony ready to share. People don’t want a robotic conversation, so be natural and share personal experiences.
-
Be respectful - everyone has a free will, do not try to force salvation on someone. This is not a debate to be won.
-
Be patient - no one wants to feel like a burden or like they’re being rushed. This is a life changing decision for the other person, treat them like a friend.
-
Listen carefully - don’t over talk or argue, allow the other person to share and be heard.
-
Guide them to a church - help them find a church that they can grow their faith in and get discipled. The Kingdom is not a competition, so don’t pressure them to only attend your church.
-
Bring materials - if planning ahead to go out, have Bibles and/or other materials that can help further the conversation or help them in their own time.

PRAYER FOR BOLDNESS
Father, I ask for the boldness the Apostles asked for in Acts 4 to fill my mouth. Let Your truth be found in my words as I share Your good news with those around me, that You would speak through me. I ask for the boldness and courage to speak unashamedly of Your truth. I commit to choose boldness and courage, not a spirit of pride, fear, or timidity. I surrender my thoughts and plans to You, and give You full permission to use me in advancing Your Kingdom. Amen.
Acts 4:23-31; Ephesians 6:19-20; Mark 16:15; Romans 1:16; Matthew 10:32; Proverbs 28:1; 2 Timothy 1:7; Psalm 27:1; Romans 8:31-32; 1 Corinthians 16:13
PRAYER FOR THE HARVEST
Jesus, I partner with Your prayer in Luke 10:2 and ask the Father to send workers into the harvest. You said that the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few, so I ask for laborers to be raised up. I ask that in my generation, the greatest harvest of souls would be seen. Holy Spirit would you soften the ground before us so that every seed that is planted would fall on good soil. Guide us as we seek to give You Your inheritance. For every person questioning “is there more to life?” would You send a messenger! Amen.
Matthew 9:37; Matthew 13:23; John 4:35; John 15:16; Galatians 6:9; Proverbs 10:5
PRAYER FOR THE LOST
God, I pray for the eyes of the lost to begin to see Your truth. Let them be awakened from the delusion of the spirit of this age. I ask for their hearts to be softened and their ears opened to the hope of Your glory. I thank You that before I knew You, You were working on my heart; that You loved me while I was still a sinner. Thank You for Your patience with us. Thank You for Your relentless pursuit of us; that there is no place we can go to hide from Your love. I pray that Your love would draw the hearts of every unbeliever to You. Jesus, shine Your light on the darkest places! Amen.
Matthew 11:28-30; Matthew 13:1-23; Luke 15:4-6; Luke 19:10; Ephesians 4:15; Colossians 4:3-4; 2 Peter 3:9; Psalm 34:18; Psalm 139:7-10; Isaiah 53:6
PRAYER FOR SALVATION
Lord, I confess that I am a sinner and am in need of Your mercy and forgiveness. I confess my sins to You today and receive Your death on the cross as the only sacrifice that could atone for my sins. Jesus, I believe that You are the Son of God and that You died on the cross and rose again. By faith I not only die with You, but I rise with You. I acknowledge that I have done nothing to earn salvation but that You freely give this to me because You love me. I profess You as the Lord and Savior of my life. I receive Your Holy Spirit and surrender my control to You. I no longer live, but You live in me. I commit to loving You through a life of obedience. In my life would You have all of the glory, honor, and power. Amen.
Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 10:9; John 14:6; Acts 2:21; Acts 16:30-33; Galatians 2:20
Whether testifying of how you became a Christian, or sharing a story of something God did in your life, the purpose is to point people to God and not ourselves. We believe the following three point structure helps us do just that, by keeping us on track and not getting lost in the personal details.
1. Where I was
"Where I was" is like the before picture of a transformation. People don't need to know the exact day, time, and location, but it's helpful to share the state you were living in before you experienced God's transforming power.
For example: Before I knew Christ I was living only to please myself because I craved affection and validation, but I was never fully satisfied. This resulted in words and actions that hurt those closest to me.
2. What God did
This is where you really get to boast about all that God has done! How did He show up? Where did He show up? Why did He show up? Was it instantaneous? Was He patient in His pursuit and walked us through the transformation over an extended period?
For example: I asked God to help me and as I prayed I began to feel all of my shame leave and I saw myself the way God sees me. For the first time I felt true love, peace, and acceptance. I realized the only validation I needed was from my Father in Heaven, and it was in that moment that I finally felt real satisfaction.
3. Where I am now
"Where I am now" is the after picture of the transformation. Share what is now different in your life compared to before. This is still the time to boast about God's power and goodness.
For example: Now that I know my identity and value comes from God alone, my motives with people have changed. I no longer seek to satisfy myself, but to satisfy God. Every day I can walk free from loneliness and help those around me to do the same.
*This is a guide for those who may never have shared a testimony before. This is not the only way to share a testimony.
