Just A Gimmick?

May 7, 2007, Toledo, Ohio. A couple days ago, 30 volunteers from Toledo First welcomed 830 youth into Whitmer High School auditorium to watch a group of brick breaking body builders talk about the life changing strength and power of Jesus in their lives.

In response, 190 [23% of the crowd] came forward at the conclusion of the event publicly deciding in front of their peers to follow Jesus. Local Links were there to pray with them and take their contact info. Those names will be returned to participating local churches like ours allowing continued discipleship training and mentoring.
Does that sound like just a gimmick to you?
