using social media to reach younger generations with the love of jesus
"I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest." John 4:35
"There was an urgency in Jesus' words regarding the harvest and we believe that urgency remains. People are more open to considering and responding to the claims of Christ right now than they have ever been in the past. As young people try to process pain, confusion, shame, and misery, they are open to conversations about who Jesus is and all that He offers. And, not only does he answer the felt needs of peace, joy, love, and purpose, but He also is the only doorway through which they can experience eternal life.
Our promise is that we will do everything we possibly can to be Spirit-led, culturally relevant, and intelligently innovative to reach as many people as we can with the message that Jesus offers them everything they are truly searching for. "
–Sean Dunn, Founder and President of Groundwire.
Our StrategY
Many people wonder, “How does Groundwire reach a generation that is so lost, so distracted, and surrounded by so much darkness?” The answer is simple. We bring the light of Christ to them, exactly where they are.
​​​These young people are flooding platforms like TikTok and Instagram seeking an outlet from the chaos that surrounds them. We recognize this, and so we pay to have our Gospel-focused ads show up on their phones in the hopes of helping them find freedom in Christ.

Our IMPACT
​​By saturating the digital media landscape with the message of God's love, we are seeing hearts open to the offer of Jesus and lives transformed. Since 2017, Groundwire has seen over 2 million people place their trust in Christ! But we don't want to stop there! The harvest is ripe (John 4:35) and He wants all to come to a knowledge of the truth and be saved (I Timothy 2:4).
As you consider how you can be a part of introducing young people to the life-changing truth of Jesus Christ, please know your prayer and financial investment makes all the difference.

"She had loaded syringes ready to take her life when our commercial caught her attention....something drew her to the website and she talked with an online coach. She not only chose life, but experienced New Life in Jesus. She is a New Creation and embracing the fact that God will walk with her even through challenges." (Testimony from a Groundwire Coach)
