In Matthew 4:19, Jesus said, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” God has inspired us through that verse to win souls for his Kingdom. When you look at the laws of fishing, you obviously need to have good bait to catch fish.
We have studied the Philippines youth culture for years and realize that young people here LOVE music. I don’t mean they just like it, the whole culture here is obsessed and driven by music. You see and hear the influence of music everywhere from the simplest song of a child the to the unlimited amount of loud karaoke at every gathering.
We realize that the youth here need and want positive music. We recently held an Alternative Rock Concert at the Refuge to bait the youth to come and hear the Gospel. We had a great turnout with several new young people. We also fed everyone for free, and welcomed them with games and free prizes.
During the concert a young man spoke to us and said, “I am a Muslim, but I am enjoying this concert.” In the middle of the concert, I had the honor of preaching the Gospel to this crowd and every person prayed the prayer of salvation with me. These concerts are truly fishing for men.
