The Relational Tangible Object



In ministry some have found that its hard to measure effectiveness because relationships are viewed as intangible objects. I however disagree! I believe a relationship is a tangible object. Its who you turn to and lean on when things get tough.

Its our relationship with Jesus that has saved us. We needed saving and Jesus, in relationship, put skin on and came to our rescue. A guy named Thomas once put his hands in His nail holes - that's tangible.

We have been sent to be the tangible Jesus. Help us make that possible. Your donations and support help us to train up and send out college and young adults that are committed to walking students through their toughest years. We want to train up and send you out as well. Lets begin our relationship. Times are tough. Let's lean on each other.

From the mouth of our mentors:

Davey and I have been sailing for a few months now at Lake Mission Viejo. God has given me a catch twenty-two circumstance in our sailing outings. The wind at LMV isn't the greatest, not to mention the most reliable. But as it turns out, that's not a bad thing. Sometimes we have a hoot, hiking out (that's when the boat is tipping, and you lean out over the water to keep from capsizing) - those are the times we come for the adrenalin rush.

Others times the water is dead calm. Times like these are when the deep spiritual conversations spark and I really get him. God has blessed me by using me in Davey's life, and he is slowly becoming more comfortable with our conversations.

This Is What They Are Saying About PH...


Former Young Life Area Director Of South Coast, Ken Clark, had this to say about Project Hangout, "I love the simplicity of Project Hangout. Adults being trained to use their gifts and interests to connect with lost and hurting kids. No program, no camps... just a quick and efficient deployment of adults to catch the kids that slip through the cracks of other ministries."

Project Hangout Quote


"Project Hangout captures the essence of Jesus' ministry: life-on-life mentoring and discipleship that happens naturally out of close friendships. It ought to make even a lot of pastors rethink how they do ministry." - Brent Dedmon, College Pastor, Calvary Church of Santa Ana

BIOLA UNIVERSITY PRESS


BIOLA's Campus newspaper the Chimes recently did an article on Project Hangout. Please check out the full article at: HERE

"Some might consider Project Hangout a type of haven or Christian utopia, but to Director of Operations Ryan Zeulner, it is a place where kids can find answers.
Project Hangout has two main goals: to train leaders within the church and to “reach the unreached.” Through rigorous training, the leaders of Project Hangout hope to create strong, godly leaders in the church, who will use relationships in the church to reach non-Christians. Project Hangout currently has its focus in Orange County, but they are looking to spread their ministry to other nearby locations..."
