When Faith Becomes Your Own: Sarah’s Powerful Story Meet student Sarah, a passionate archery enthusiast who grew up in a Christian home. When Sarah's sister left, her world turned upside down. Feeling lost, alone, and even blamed for her sister’s departure, she pulled away from everyone—angry at God and shutting herself off. It all became too much to handle. That’s when she ended up at a Dare 2 Share event—and everything changed. ?? For the first time, she experienced faith in a way she never had before. She realized she didn’t want to just piggyback off her parents’ faith—she wanted a real, personal relationship with Jesus. Her pastor saw the transformation firsthand, saying: "When a teen’s faith becomes their own, it is no longer just something they do, it is something they are!" Now, Sarah feels truly loved and cared for—not just by her youth group, but by God Himself. Her faith has grown like never before, and all she wants to do is share the hope of the Gospel with everyone around her! ?? Her story is proof that faith isn’t meant to just be inherited—it becomes life-changing when it becomes your own.

The Miraculous Power of Gospel Hope! ?? Check out this powerful and inspiring story of a family physician who witnesses the healing power of Jesus's hope every day. As a doctor, he walks alongside patients facing insurmountable challenges—cancer, terminal illness, tragic accidents, and stillbirths—offering not only medical care but also the eternal hope found in Christ. His journey of faith began as a teenager when he attended a Dare 2 Share event. That experience ignited a passion within him to share the love, truth, and hope of Christ with everyone around him. As he grew, that fire led him to the medical field where he could share God's hope with those in the most desperate of situations on a weekly basis. Through his work, he has seen miracles unfold—patients who, after hearing about Jesus, find comfort, renewed strength, and even experience physical healing through their newfound hope. ?? His testimony is a powerful reminder of how the hope of the Gospel transforms and even saves lives. He shared this quote: "If we could impact teens the way I was impacted by Dare 2 Share, we wouldn't just see a few hearts on fire, we'd see a world on fire."

Allow us to introduce you to Cruz. As a teenager, Cruz faced many challenges, moving from house to house with his mom, who was in and out of jail. This instability led him to make poor choices—until everything changed when he attended Dare 2 Share LIVE. ?? At the event, Cruz encountered Jesus and the clear Gospel, and his life took a transformative turn. He found hope and purpose, becoming a leader of faith. Now, other teens seek him out to talk, and he shares the Gospel, helping them feel less alone and discover the same hope he found. Cruz has grown into a powerful Kingdom worker for Christ. ?? Being a teenager today is tougher than ever. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, there’s an “epidemic of loneliness” in our country, described as “an under-appreciated public health crisis that has harmed individual and societal health.” That’s why what we do at Dare 2 Share is so vital—equipping teens to reach their peers with the Gospel so that "every teen, everywhere, can hear the Gospel from a friend." Cruz’s story is a powerful reminder of the impact this vision can have. Watch his full story here: https://hubs.li/Q033RY8l0 or read more about it here: https://hubs.li/Q033RYMJ0
