Why a Toolkit
With a nudge from the Holy Spirit, Matthew West’s non-profit ministry, popwe, informally shared the UNTOLD video and story with youth ministers, ministry directors, and life-affirming organizations. The feedback was unbelievable. Motivated by the powerful lyrics and music, they went a step further and engaged others in courageous conversations about life, choices, compassion, and forgiveness. They asked for help in creating resources to equip them to facilitate not just one great conversation, but ongoing dialogue, awareness, and action.
In short, the nudge caught momentum…now it’s time to turn momentum into a movement.
