50 years ago 400,000 young people gathered in a field in NY to listen to music. That gathering known as “Woodstock” is still impacting our world today. I’ve been fascinated how moments like this mobilize into movements. That phrase, “A Moment to Mobilize a Movement” came to me about 18 months ago as I was praying about the dream God had given me to gather this generation on a field in Kansas. I believe that it is time for this generation to have THEIR defining moment with the Father. Many are praying the simple prayer “Father meet us in the field” with us in preparation of July 4th weekend 2020. We can’t predict or assume how God will answer that prayer but in thing I know...He will answer that prayer! Today reminds me that moments are powerful...moments matter...and moments shaped by God will echo in eternity. Father, meet us in the field in 323 days!!! #prayerequalschange #claimyourcampus2020
Love living life alongside her!
Gettin real @unitychristianmusicfestival talking about Claim Your Campus 2020. We are praying big. Being on that stage pushes me to pray passionately for this generation to have their moment with God on that field in Kansas. They need it. Meet us there 7-4-20. #prayerequalschange #cyc2020
I personally don’t have sisters, but there are 3 living in our home that me and their mom call our own. Happy national sister day to my clones! #venti #tall #grande #clonewars
This is such a special season for our family. I’ve learned to try and treasure the times I’m in while I’m in them. I am so blessed to have the privilege to travel together with our entire family this summer for NTS Camp. As camp director my wife Arianna is taking our camp ministry to a place that it has never been in our 20 years of existence. I am seeing leadership in her that I’ve never known before. I’m so proud of her. Olivia led our CYC 2020 promo team this summer and also spoke at our morning sessions about biblical covenants. She is advanced beyond her years in her leading and speaking abilities. Lauren was on our “photeo” team (combo of photo and video) as a photographer and she is pro level in her skills behind a camera. Check out the photos in the FB page. Her smile lit up my world every day all summer! Sophia did a lot behind the scenes and worked hard. I could see her change this summer as she is growing up in her faith. Then there’s Amonte...he represents all of the young people we add to our family in our ministry. We love him and what we see God doing in his life along with many of our summer staff of young adults that we consider adopted into our family. God has been so good to me! #ntscamp #ntscampmovement
Day off #venti #grande #tall #clones
I’ve been trying to choose one picture to capture the essence of NTS Camp for summer 2019 on our last day. I’ll tell you why I chose this one. Of the thousands of students and stories...life transforming moments, hundreds giving their lives to Christ for the first time, students called to a lifetime of ministry service, impactful worship, inspiring teaching, powerful community, deep small group discussions, intense game competition, laughter, tears, and an awe and wonder of how God works every year at every camp...why this picture? This is Landon. Last year he came to camp for the first time. His father had just died the day before camp started. He and his family decided he should attend NTS and have the funeral afterwards. Landon gave his life to Christ last year at NTS. His life was forever changed. We talked this summer and he told me this past year was hard. But he’s still following Christ and is all in with his faith. Landon represents thousands of young people who leave NTS Camp never the same! Thank You Father that you are the perfect Father to Landon and all of us! I praise Your Name for Your miraculous Hand upon us this summer at NTS Camp. #ntscamp #ntscampmovement
This man has the heart and the voice...of a lion. Thank you Erik Bledsoe for leading with strength and honor my friend! #ntscamp #ntscampmovement
