LIGHT FOR THE LOST

Light for the Lost (LFTL) serves to “empower the church to provide God’s Word for every person on the planet.” Providing a variety of resources such as audio, visual, and printed materials, LFTL has one guiding principle: all Light For The Lost assistance must be to provide resources directly related to evangelism.

John 4:35 says, “Look at the fields...they are ripe for harvest.” LFTL provided resources are multiplying and empowering the efforts of missionaries in communicating the story of Jesus to a ‘ripe field of people.’

In April of each year, we host LFTL events throughout the Network.

2019 SPEAKERS

DUANE GRYDER - NATIONAL HONORBOUND MOTORCYCLE CHAPLAIN

Duane and Janet Gryder are AG US Missionaries who serve in the same way that foreign missionaries serve. Before our appointment, many AG Motorcycle Chaplains primarily went from rally to rally doing evangelistic outreaches. Instead we went into their world, built relationships, did evangelism, trained bikers for ministry, and either plugged bikers into existing churches or planted new churches. Plus, we are training others to do the same.

We are reaching out to the ten million bikers and motorcyclist in America. Over half of these are part of a culture that is completely foreign to what they call “citizens.” They have their own nations, territories, laws and enforcement. Their code requires that a man be what he says he is, whether he is good or bad. Bikers reject most Christians because of those they have seen who do not live like Christians. When they respond to the gospel it is usually to a holiness message. We set out to immerse ourselves into their culture, learn the language, attempt to establish contact with leadership, and to equip others to minister within the culture.

RICK ALLEN - NATIONAL MEN'S DIRECTOR

Rick Allen was appointed as the National Men’s Ministry and Light for the Lost Director in January 2013. Along with this position, he serves as a national facilitator of the Church Transformation Initiative and an AGTrust Development Team member.

In his role as National LFTL Director, Rick travels throughout the world working with missionaries and ministry partners to ensure they are fully equipped with the evangelism resources necessary to spread the gospel. He also speaks nationwide at various events to accomplish the vision of LFTL – One Message, Many Languages.
