So Who is the Evangelism Linebacker?

We've all heard about the Evangelism Linebacker and we've laughed with the videos, but who is this passionate Christ follower?

Derwin Gray is a man of great passion. For six seasons in the NFL he played with a contagious passion that led to two Pro Bowl nominations. For the last nine years, he has communicated the Gospel of Grace around America and abroad with an intense passion that is both contagious and inspiring. Dewey is a 2004 graduate of the Billy Graham Institute of Emerging Evangelists and a graduate (with honors) of Southern Evangelical Seminary in Charlotte, North Carolina, where he is being mentored by world-renowned theologian, philosopher, and apologist Norman L. Geisler.
Derwin Gray and his wife Vicki founded One Heart at a Time Ministries in September of 1999. The vision of the ministry is to see people transformed--one heart at a time--through the love, grace, and truth of Jesus Christ. Derwin is also on the Pastoral Leadership Team of theGathering, a young, vibrant multi-ethnic church plant in Charlotte, NC .

What An Adventure!

The past two weekends have been an adventure for the Linebacker. This weekend I was at the kaleo Conference in Wake Forest, North Carolina, teaching high school and college students. I met some incredible young people with great passion for Jesus and His Kingdom; I got to connect with some old friends like Clayton King and J.D. Greer.

Last weekend, I had the honor of preaching at the Chapel service for the Chicago Bears football team. Seven player and coaches received Jesus as God, Savior and Friend. What an adventure.

On Tuesday, I will be in Nashville teaching/preaching at the Lifeway National Youth Worker's Conference: http://www.lifeway.com/ev/events_detail_mainpage/0%2C2232%2CE%25253D185%252526M%25253D201001%2C00.html

Friends of the Linebacker, please pray for me. This is a huge opportunity to impact leaders who will in turn impact students. Later this week, I will be in Denver with Greg Steir and the crew preparing for the up coming Dare 2 Share tour:http://www.dare2share.org/invincible/

God is also doing some great things at the church where I am pastor preaching & discipleship.

What an awesome adventure!
