New Church Video Release "A True Story"
Pastor {{ contact.firstname }},
Over the course of our 12 year ministry we have helped to create millions of church invitations with the TrueLife.org church invitation card.
As a result, thousands of lives have been changed, including Matt Charles'. He wrote us his story not too long ago.
True Life,
Thank you so much for what you do. Someone handed me a card as I was sitting on a bench in the mall. I was a pretty hardcore atheist for a long time.
Recently, a really good friend of mine died in a car crash and it got me thinking about how brief life is and how meaningless it all is. As an atheist, there is just no hope. When you realize it is pointless, you start to sort of spin out of control. Nothing makes any sense anymore. In a moment of frustration, I began to think about my friends who were Christians and internally I sort of cried out “God, if you are there, give me some sort of sign to prove it.” I was fully expecting silence.
Well, someone came up to me as I was sitting on that bench and handed me a card, and just said, “I’d like to invite you to my church, and please know that God loves you.” I was dumbfounded. It didn’t feel like just some random person telling me that. It felt different.
In a way, it sort of scared me. The foundation that I built my whole life upon may have just been upended. I didn’t know what to do. I threw the card in the trash. I wanted to leave.
What happened next blew my mind. When I got to my car, wedged into the weather stripping of my driver side front window was another card. My mind was racing and continued to do that all the way home.
When I got home I reluctantly got on the website and began watching videos. I don’t even know the number of hours I sat through watching videos; it was a lot. In one of those videos the guy on the video said, “You can be sure right now that you will spend eternity in heaven with God if you want. All you have to do is pray along with me.” Well y’all, I did. At that moment, I invited Jesus into my life as my Lord and Savior.
I have gotten hooked up with a church that is only like a few miles away, and I honestly cannot thank you enough for what you do. Thank you.
Your brother,
Matt Charles
We made a short two minute video for you to show your church that reenacts Matt’s story.
Show it at the end of your sermon and then ask, “How many of you can help us reach more people like Matt this week by handing out five cards?” Almost everyone should raise their hands. Then say, “I’ll be sure to ask you next week whether or not you did.” Then close in prayer asking for the Lord to help your church in sowing their seeds during the upcoming week.
My friend, We are all going to be held accountable by God, so hope this helps you and encourages you to mobilize the people God gave you.
Because of Jesus,
