I am Second

I stumbled across this web site yesterday – I am Second. An I am Second Group “is a gathering of people who want to put Jesus First in their lives.”

Simple yet profound. Being Second means that you have placed yourself under Jesus’ authority in order that He will speak and act through you to touch the lives of others. The goal of an I am Second group is to “impact a person’s sphere of influence so that others will want to know more about Jesus.”

Sounds like just another name for small groups. And I hear you, but this seems from the surface to be something deeper. The website is full of crisp, high-quality videos of people sharing their pasts, including pain and redemption. Pastors, soldiers, rock stars, movie stars, pro ball players, politicians, college students, pageant queens, and housewives all tell their stories. Although they come from very different backgrounds, they all have one thing in common: Jesus and his grace, restoration, and love. They are all stories anyone, anywhere, can relate to. In this way, I am Second is able to use that commonality as a platform. It is this thread that allows people to come together and know that although we may look different, we aren’t so different after all.

Anyone can log onto the site to connect with a live person either by phone, chat or e-mail 24-hours a day. And there are tons of FREE resources to guide someone in starting I am Second groups as well as helps to the most common questions/objections to Christianity.

Are you Second?
