Stories of Impact

I love big-picture vision and big impact, but they still don’t compare to the joy of hearing our team's individual stories of impact. I collected some of my favorite testimonies from this season that will give you a picture of what God is doing in college students in America and worldwide. 

From Suicide to Salvation: A Divine Intervention

“While evangelizing on the University of South Florida’s campus, I approached a nursing student and shared a personal part of my testimony: “I was suicidal for five years, but Jesus set me free.” Her face changed as she whispered, “I wanted to kill myself last night.” Stunned, I asked, “What stopped you?” She responded, “I just couldn’t do it.” I told her, “That was Jesus. He was with you.” As we stood there, I shared the full Gospel, explaining the abundant life Jesus offers through surrender. She began to weep and prayed a prayer of repentance. Opening her eyes, she blinked several times, exclaiming, “Everything looks so clear!” I told her, “That’s the Holy Spirit.” She left with a newfound joy, and the host evangelist, who had never led someone to Christ before, was in tears as she witnessed the power of salvation.”

An Evangelism Outrbreak At Oregon State:

"During the fall of 2022, I was part of a pre-tour meeting at Oregon State University. The event was small—around 15 to 20 students—but what God did through that gathering was incredible.

We started with worship and evangelism training. Many students in the room had never shared their faith before, so we didn’t just teach—we immediately sent them out to practice on campus. It was amazing to watch the fear lift off of them as they stepped into bold evangelism. You could see something change in them—they were alive, confident, and walking in their missional calling.

Since then, God has moved powerfully at OSU. The ministry we partnered with has grown into a highly activated movement. They now have interns assigned to five different days of the week, with each intern leading evangelism efforts for their specific day. They’ve expanded from monthly to daily outreach, with multiple ministries collaborating to train and equip students.

It’s incredible to see how students at OSU are consistently sharing the gospel, reaching the lost on their campus, and inspiring others to do the same. This revival wasn’t just a moment—it’s now a movement of bold evangelism that continues to grow and thrive."

Malawi Clinic Healing – A Firsthand Account

"While my team and I were in Malawi, we had the opportunity to visit a local clinic serving women and children. It was a small but packed clinic, and our group of 13 volunteers split into two teams to minister and offer prayer. With only one translator to bridge the language gap (the locals spoke Chichewa), communication was challenging, but we pressed on, trusting God to move.

As I entered the clinic, the first thing I noticed was a woman visibly wincing in pain, clearly struggling physically. Then I glanced to my left—and there she was: a mother clutching what looked like a lifeless baby in her arms. The baby wasn’t moving. My heart stopped. This was a moment where faith had to kick in—either we were going to witness a miracle, or this mother’s story would end in tragedy.

With the translator’s help, I asked the woman what had happened. She explained that her baby had been declared out of position by the doctor and hadn’t responded to treatment. On top of that, she was in severe pain, feeling what she described as “wounds inside her womb.” The medical staff had offered little hope.

My teammate and I decided to pray over her, believing God could intervene. As we laid hands on her, she suddenly exclaimed, “I feel fire!” The heat and sensation she described didn’t come from us—it was the Holy Spirit working within her. Seeing her response, we prayed even more fervently for an increase in this presence, asking the Lord to heal her body and align the baby in her womb.

Within moments, the woman’s entire demeanor shifted. “The pain is gone!” she cried out, standing up with ease. “The baby—it’s moved back into position!” She was so certain of her healing that she immediately asked, “Can I go home now?”

We were stunned. “Don’t you want to see the doctors first?” we asked.

“No,” she replied confidently. “Jesus has healed me.”

While we stood in awe, I glanced back at the lifeless baby in the mother’s arms—and then, as if breath had been blown back into its tiny lungs, the child stirred to life. I was stunned beyond words. What we had just witnessed was nothing short of a miracle.

The presence of God continued to ripple through the clinic. Everywhere we turned, patients were being healed. People who had walked in crippled by pain were now standing, moving freely. One by one, the clinic emptied as healed patients left in disbelief and joy.

When the doctor finally returned, expecting a room full of patients, he stood speechless. “Where are all my patients?” he asked, baffled.

“They’ve been healed,” we answered. “Jesus healed them.”

The doctor, moved by what he saw, invited us into another treatment room. “Pray for this patient,” he said. “And after that, pray for me too.”

It was unlike anything I’d ever experienced—a clinic entirely emptied because of the healing power of Jesus. What began as a routine visit turned into a divine encounter, and every person present, from patients to doctors, left knowing they had witnessed a miracle."

These stories bring me to tears. I am in awe of how He is moving in and through this generation to reach their generation. From igniting a movement to bringing salvation and performing stunning miracles, Jesus is on the move. 

Our teams are preparing to reach about 400 different university campuses in America and Europe and 70 campuses in East Africa this coming January and February. Pray with us that many more of these testimonies would break out.
