Do Hard Things Tour 2009: Registration is Open

There is a quote, the author long since forgotten, that has been used countless times by millions all over the world: “Anything good is worth waiting for”

Over the last few weeks, we’ve received dozens of emails from people asking us when registration for the 2009 conference season will be open. Well, the wait is over. Registration is now open for the Do Hard Things Tour 2009, stopping in five major cities: Louisville, KY, Chicago, IL, Orange County, CA, Birmingham, AL, and Washington, D.C.

Do Hard Things Tour 2009

Last year’s conference tour was incredible! Young, and old people took up the challenge to Do Hard Things and to make an impact on the culture for Christ. Fathers were reconciled to their sons, daughters to their mothers. And most importantly, souls were saved. Even though we’re not about numbers, we like to share these to show what God is doing in our generation:

* 16,200 teens, parents, and youth workers reached in 2008, up from 4,200 in 2007.

* 14-year-olds worked with Convention Centers, 15-year-olds manned $50,000 robotic cameras, 16-year-olds managed grassroots publicity, 9-year-olds ran Audience Response Technology, etc. These were events for teens, by teens.

* 8,800 miles: The farthest distance traveled to attend. Represented were Canada, France, Germany, Great Britain, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and 43 of the 50 states.

* 500 bold professions of faith in Jesus Christ with every head up and every eye open.

* 3,200 attendees at the final conference outside Washington, D.C.

God is really using this movement, and this year, we embark on the next chapter of the journey.

    Oh, I want to go so badly. However, you will be in Chicago on July 11, and we have to be in Montana on the eleventh.

    I have a question though. Even though you are no longer teens, will you still tour next year?

  4. Emily Says:

    Awesome. I wish I could come this year. I wish I could be there to volunteer and help with the conference. But, unfortunately you won’t be coming anywhere near me and I very highly doubt I’ll be able to travel there.

    However, I’m so thankful that I was able to go last year. What a huge blessing it was. It really changed my life. I will be praying that it will radically change lives and that God will use you all amazingly!

    In Christ,
    Emily

    Oh, man, I REALLY wish I could go to the conference! I loved your book and have been visiting your blog regularly, and it’s grown me so much! And I live by Chicago, (I’ve even been to Moody church countless times because 3 of my siblings went/go to Moody Bible Institute,) but I’m going to be on a missions trip during the conference! I’ll be praying for you guys, though! I thank God for all you do!

    I read your book “Do Hard Things” and that’s how I learned about the rebelution. I was wondering, do you cover the same mateiral in the tour as you did in the book? Or is it something completely different? I can’t come to the confrence this year, but if you’re in my area next year I might attend.
