It was in 2006 when a worker from Steiger International made a connection with me at the Freakstock Music Festival in Germany and prayed with me. Two years later David Pierce was preaching in my church in Brazil. After he spoke he came to me and said: “I think God wants you and your band to come to our Steiger Radical Missions School.” Download pdf

We arrived at the Ukrainian/Polish border only to be told that we had to drive to another border. Robert, our polish promoter, thought that the police may have been looking for a bribe. So after an all-night drive on crazy roads we arrived at another border where we carried, by hand, all of our personal gear and band equipment in the pouring rain from the Ukrainian border to the Polish border.

Last summer, our ministry No Longer Music played a concert in a large amphitheater in "Park Praski" near the center of Warsaw, Poland. After the concert, I invited people interested in a real relationship with Jesus to come to the torch next to the stage. Around 75 people knelt on the grass and asked Jesus into their lives, while hundreds more watched. Many wept and embraced us because they were so moved by God's presence. Download pdf

My first trip to Sumy, Ukraine was nine months ago. Sumy is not easy to get to because there is no airport in the city and your only option is a crazy 5 hour drive from Kiev. Since the fall of communism the country is almost totally controlled by organized crime. Download pdf

On Saturday November 20th in Beirut, Lebanon, I did a live interview on a popular program on MTV Lebanon and millions of people saw it all over Lebanon and the Arab world. The program director told me that it reaches the educated young and trendy 15-30 year old demographic. Many I talked to in Lebanon said that war could break out again any day, which I think made it even more significant. Download pdf
