International Newsletter April 2014
I first met Cocke in 2005 while we were on tour in Santiago, Chile. He was in a secular Chilean metal band. After one of our meetings, Cocke fell on his knees and gave his life to Jesus because he saw that Jesus was not just a bunch of words, but that he was powerful! Since then his life has been totally transformed.
It is so exciting to see the vision of No Longer Music being multiplied. I believe that there are not enough bands today who exist solely to reach the lost.
That is why Steiger's ministry "Platform" exists to identify, train, equip and send Christian artists as missionaries to proclaim the Gospel outside the church culture. The Platform program is based on the 10 biblical principles laid out in my new book "Revolutionary!" (www.steiger.org/revolutionary).
This year, we will be sending 4 different versions of No Longer Music to up to 15 countries all over Europe, the Middle East and South America. By God's power, we expect that thousands will respond to the Gospel at NLM concerts this year.
We are also praying about developing a Russian-speaking NLM team and an Asian NLM team in the future.
Please continue to pray for Platform. Pray that God would raise up a new generation of evangelists who would boldly use their God-given creativity to proclaim the Gospel outside the church!
For the lost,
David Pierce

Support NLM!
In order to meet these critical opportunities to bring the Gospel to the lost, we need those who stand with us through finances and prayer. The tour budget this year is $175,000. A contribution of any size can be made online at www.steiger.org/donate (be sure to include "NLM Tour" in the comment box) or by check.
Sponsor a No Longer Music Concert!
Please prayerfully consider "sponsoring" a concert. A sponsorship gift of US$2,500 will enable No Longer Music to conduct a concert reaching lost secular youth for Jesus. This is also a great way for a church, small group or family to come together to "adopt" a concert. As a "Concert Sponsor", you can choose a concert in a particular country and will receive a description of the concert, venue, type of people in attendance before the concert and a report and short video (1-3 minutes) summarizing the concert.
