Millions of people around the world still live with little or no access to the Gospel. Many have never heard the message of Jesus Christ in a way they can understand or respond to personally.

Scripture reminds us that salvation begins with hearing the Word of God:

“How can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?”
Romans 10:14

Crusade evangelism allows us to bring the Gospel directly to cities, villages, and regions where access is limited. By creating open, public gatherings, we are able to reach large numbers of people at once and give every person the opportunity to hear the Good News and respond for themselves.

The Gospel was never meant to be hidden or shared quietly with only a few. Throughout Scripture, we see God move powerfully when His Word is proclaimed openly and boldly.

Jesus Himself modeled public proclamation and commanded His followers to do the same:

“Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to all creation.”
Mark 16:15

Crusades, including our Jesus Festivals, create space for the Gospel to be preached clearly to multitudes. In these gatherings, people encounter Jesus, make personal decisions for Christ, and experience the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. Crusade evangelism also supports local churches by connecting new believers to pastors and leaders who can disciple them and help their faith grow.

Crusade evangelism does not stand alone. It works in unity with prayer, leadership development, and discipleship, reflecting the biblical truth that the body of Christ is made up of many parts, each with a unique and essential role (1 Corinthians 12:14).

Crusades are designed to partner with the local church, not replace it. Local pastors and church leaders are involved from the very beginning through prayer, preparation, follow-up, and ongoing discipleship. While crusades provide a public opportunity for the Gospel to be proclaimed, the local church provides long-term spiritual care, teaching, and community for those who respond.

Together, crusade evangelism and the local church allow the Gospel to take deep and lasting root, strengthening believers, reaching the lost, and advancing God’s Kingdom.
