Near the center of the United States, several youth groups in North Platte, Nebraska are doing something a little different with their upcoming Dare 2 Share LIVE event. With limited options available on September 23rd for a venue large enough to host Dare 2 Share LIVE<\/a>, this group of groups found room at the inn\u2014the Quality Inn. They’ll be hosting this big event at a local hotel’s convention center. <\/span><\/p>\n I interviewed Jim Strecker, one of the drivers behind the North Platte event, and asked him how and why this church network linked arms for LIVE. “Our area network was a collection of youth workers that had little focus as a group,” Jim acknowledged.” Dare 2 Share LIVE offered a larger picture for our group to be involved in.” <\/span><\/p>\n So when he pitched the idea of Dare 2 Share LIVE to the network, everybody was in. Here’s their story… <\/span><\/p>\n Here in North Platte we have a diverse group of churches and para-church organizations. Right now our group represents over seven different churches as well as YFC<\/a>, and high school and middle school FCA<\/a> groups. <\/span><\/p>\n Many individuals in leadership with these groups have experienced Dare 2 Share conferences firsthand in the past. There was immediate excitement at the opportunity to have Dare 2 Share in our community. But running deeper and stronger is our shared vision to see students and families transformed by the gospel of Jesus Christ. <\/span><\/p>\nNorth Platte Network’s Story [The Interview]: <\/span><\/h3>\n
