The "Upstate" region of South Carolina is experiencing a population boom. Located within the heart of the Bible Belt- this increase in population should present the perfect opportunity to grow a Christian witness to the lost.
However, rather than the Church impacting the lost- it seems to be going in the other direction. Since 2011, SC has lost more than 97 protestant evangelical churches! Furthermore, the professing Christian population has gone down by more than 16%. To put that another way, if you picked 5 professing Christians from protestant churches in SC in 2011, then today one of those 5 would identify as having no religion whatsoever!
The Lord's Army prayerfully seeks to change this. The Lord’s Army is a Christian training ministry.
We equip, train and educate Christians for life on the front-lines of battle with the world. We glorify God by teaching historic/ Biblical Christianity and how to live out that faith every day. We are an ecumenical Christian ministry aimed at providing support to both local congregations and individuals with the purpose of helping them grow in knowledge, discipline and evangelistic efforts.
We are making a focus on the Upstate of South Carolina because there is a very real opportunity to do God's work by halting the local rise in secularism and to awaken and empower a strong Church presence.
We are partnering with 50 local churches to lead an evangelistic movement in addition to 24+ events and multiple group meetings. 100% of the funds raised on this site will go to support this effort. This includes:
- Training Materials ($4,300)
- Gospel Tracts/Print Materials ($550)
- Travel/Event Setup Costs ($1,300)
- Permitting Fees and Local Licenses ($1,550)
Please prayerfully consider supporting the Lord’s Army as we seek to present the right and true Gospel of Jesus Christ to the entire population of the Upstate of South Carolina.
