We Will Tell
The “We Will Tell” Podcast is a resource designed to help the local churches of Mississippi with Next Generation Ministries.
Through this podcast we will focus on:
- Resourcing.
Our heart is to provide you with everything you need from teaching, training, and curriculum to help you better serve your church, ministries, and families.
2. Events.
Events are a big part of what we do throughout the year to help reinforce what you are instilling in the lives of your students. Everything we do has a purpose with a goal of helping bring momentum to your church.
3. Serving.
Jesus came to serve - not to be served. Our heart is that we would follow this model and serve you to help you see the visions and dreams Jesus has placed in your heart for your community.
We exist to help you achieve the visions and dreams Jesus has given you for your community!
We will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord. (Psalm 78:4)

Episode 5: Why STL & BGMC?
Show Notes:
Speed The Light and BGMC are one of the most important components to discipleship for our kids, youth, and young adults!
Missions Is A GREAT Discipleship Tool
When we teach missions generosity and missions support to our students we are helping develop a passion for the Great Commission while at the same time helping them see that the world doesn’t revolve around them. Many students who learn generosity in kids church, are generous students, who become generous adults. No just with their treasure, but their time and skills, too!
Speed The Light
STL is the missions arm of the Student Ministries of the Assemblies of God. This is our way to help with Creative Communication and Transportation within our fellowship to support missionaries and missions organizations.
Traditionally, this was seen as vehicles, donkeys, bikes, mopeds, or any form of travel that helps our U.S. & World Missionaries reach their community! It’s not just a means of getting from “Point A to Point B”… it’s a means of delivering medical supplies that could be life-saving to a community. It’s a means of helping transport bibles to a people that have never seen one before. It’s a means of serving the community around them that ultimately points back to Jesus.
Speed The Light helps organizations like:
F.R.E.E. International - helping with units to meet the physical needs of those being recovered from Human Trafficking.
Convoy of Hope - suppling 18 wheelers that will cary much needed supplies and food into disaster areas.
World Serve - meeting the needs of major water crisis’ in countries that don’t have access to clean water.
STL also helps with Global University and helping church plants, education, and various other projects in sensitive countries that are finding creative ways to communicate the gospel. We supply many needs for church plants and higher learning to help them practically share the good news of Jesus.
Of course, we also help our Mississippi Missionaries with any needs they have as they are trying to reach their community… whether here in the U.S. or around the world!
It is often said that the first vehicle an Assemblies of God student buys is one for a missionary.
BGMC
Boys & Girls Missionary Challenge can be simply defined as “Kids Helping Kids”! The famous Buddy Barrel is a unique tool that kids can use to help collect “Coins for Change” and raising support to help meet the critical needs of missionaries all around the world.
Right now we have an incredible project to help pastors in sensitive countries go through school, get a degree, AND plant a church, for only $100!
Teaching missions generosity is one of the greatest discipleship tools we can use to help children see the world as Jesus sees it and provides an opportunity for us to meet those needs and help instill principles that will truly be life changing.
Final Thoughts
Missions is not just something we do - it’s who we are. It is the foundation of our movement in the Assemblies of God! We will always prioritize meeting the needs of others and helping support our heroes of the faith - our U.S. & World Missionaries… especially our missionaries from Mississippi!
