About Us

Horizon to Horizon Evangelistic Association
exists to help all people seeking truth find our Lord, Jesus Christ.
The Horizon to Horizon Evangelistic
Association exists to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ. We are
an outreach ministry focused on strengthening the church throughout the
world in areas where traditional evangelistic efforts have failed. With the
increasing trend in the younger generations to turn away from traditional
styles of worship, our aim is to reach them with an upbeat and youthful
sound and methods of evangelism that meets them where they are and opens a
door for a response. We have found that not only do many of the people
today not only turn away from traditional religions but also do not even
understand who Jesus Christ is and the Good News He brought into the world.
For many, traditional forms of worship – our language, our symbology, and
our concepts of how God works in our lives do not lead them to a personal
relationship with our Lord, Jesus Christ. This lack of common ground
requires us to reach out to them in ways that touch them where they are and
in ways that speaks to them.
The focus of Horizon to Horizon
is on evangelism and training which we will accomplish using a variety of
methods. Our evangelism efforts are designed to reach the lost while our
training efforts are aimed at helping the local church grow and develop an
attitude of evangelism among all Christians. Horizon to Horizon’s
evangelistic outreach is designed around 1 to 3 day festivals at locations
throughout Europe and the United States. Each festival uses a combination
of music tailored to reach the local culture, personal testimony, and
evangelistic preaching designed to create an environment in which the Holy
Spirit can reach out and change lives. The festival is followed up with a
series of steps aimed at incorporating the new Christian into the local
church and helping them mature as they begin a new life in Christ.
Our teaching ministry will have a three-prong approach designed to
offer local churches the training they need no matter of their background,
maturity or size. The first is to train the local church to develop an
attitude of mentorship and formation that will help new members grow and
mature as Christians. This is especially important for churches that work
with us through our festivals and crusades. The second is to train the
local church in the importance and methods of local evangelism. This
includes an understanding of what the environment is like in their
communities today – the views, beliefs, and attitudes of the lost today,
tools and methods of reaching out to the lost in ways that they will respond
to, and developing a welcoming and mentoring environment within our churches
once new Christians begin to arrive. Additionally, our teaching ministry is
aimed at the youth of today – both in reaching out to them, and in showing
them how to reach out to others. The third is to train Horizon to Horizon
teams to better perform their duties – whether as an evangelist, a speaker
in the training ministry, musician, or festival staff. As Horizon to
Horizon grows and expands, our goal is to have teams out and working
throughout all of the United States and Europe. This will require an
extensive training program to ensure that all our teams are equipped to
follow God’s lead and have the tools available to meet this need.
