What is Lead THE Cause?

Lead THE Cause (LTC) is a one-week summer camp alternative from Dare 2 Share Ministries. At LTC, youth groups spend an intensive week praying, learning, and brainstorming together to reach their community for Christ. They experience:

DEEP PRAYER

Interceding for their lost friends. Students spend the first day and a half learning to align their heart with Godā€™s and His desire for all to come to faith in Him.

FAITH SHARING

Students get many outreach opportunities to share the Gospel. Two entire afternoons are dedicated to hands-on outreach, speaking with strangers, and starting Gospel conversations. Students are also challenged to bring up the Gospel with friends and family back home via text, phone calls and written letters.

VISION PLANNING

Groups get time to brainstorm together about how to reach their community for Christ. Students will pray and plan ways they can reach their own circles of influence with the Gospel, coming away with a strategic plan and specific goals.

Why should I bring my youth group?

This powerful week really flips the switch within the hearts and minds of students. It changes youth ministry culture from teens being the consumers to the creators of ministry opportunities. Students will come home from LTC:

  • Energized in their faith
  • Passionate about the lost
  • Equipped with tools to reach their friends and a plan to get started

Ā The LTC experience empowers youth to make a difference for Christ in their circles of influence, and it trains youth leaders to fuel the movement by learning how to create aĀ Gospel AdvancingĀ ministry.
