As we reflect on this year’s 50 Days to Your Pentecost challenge, our hearts are full of gratitude for what the Lord has done. Throughout the daily video podcasts, we witnessed a beautiful expression of the Body of Christ coming together from across Canada and the world, seeking His presence with sincerity, hunger, and expectancy.
Each day offered a fresh perspective of God’s heart through the unique voice of each friend of Michael and Ann. The variety of gifts and testimonies revealed more than just who God is—it gave us a glimpse into what He desires to do among His people in this season.
One participant shared these thoughtful words:
“Michael, one of the things that I’ve realized about the 50 Days broadcasts is, YOU show us the Father’s Heart by the way you lead and by the guests you bring to each broadcast. Everyone having their own unique identity brings to the conversation a piece of the Father and His heart. We are all made in His image, and we get a glimpse of who the Father is—and what’s on His heart—with each conversation.”
Another individual, who has walked with us through multiple years of this journey, offered this reflection:
“I’ve been involved with the 50 Days to Your Pentecost Challenge for the last three years. I have loved hearing the God stories from people all over the world who have been faithfully loving Jesus and others. Over the years, this space has become family to me. I look forward to seeing who shows up to share and how God has written more to their story.”
For all of us at Christ For Your City, testimonies like these speak to the heart of what this challenge is all about. It has never simply been a series of livestreams. It has become a gathering place—a relational space where we hear from the Lord and from one another. It is a shared table where the family of God comes together, united by the Holy Spirit, to encourage, equip, and lift one another up.
We are excited to share with you that this faith journey will continue!
In response to the many who have expressed a desire to learn, and share these Kingdom-minded messages with others, we are currently preparing to launch a NEW WEEKLY podcast. Our hope is to make these conversations more easily accessible both as audio and video formatted podcasts, allowing people to participate by listening at their own pace and continue drawing from the rich well of Kingdom focused nurturing, mentoring and encouragement that emerges from each episode.
In addition, the Lord has opened a new door through a growing partnership with a Canadian Juno Award-winning Christian musician. This individual is helping us train young people in audio production and media communication. Through this partnership, we are not only improving the quality of our content but also investing in the next generation—equipping young creatives with the tools and discipleship they need to share the Gospel of the Kingdom through media.
This is a continuation of the original vision and mandate the Lord gave us in July 1995 to “prepare leaders and their cities to be transformed by Jesus Christ!” Our desire is to continue creating spaces where His voice can be heard, His people can be built up, and His purposes can be made known on earth.
Thank you to everyone who joined us during this year’s 50 Days to Your Pentecost Challenge. Your presence, prayers, and faithfulness mean more than we can say. Whether you watched a single broadcast or journeyed with us daily, you are part of this family, and we are grateful.
As we move forward, we invite you to stay connected. Continue to pray with us, tune in to our new weekly series, and share the message as we follow the Spirit into the next season. May the fire of Pentecost continue to stir our hearts, and may we remain ready for all that the Lord desires to do.
With gratitude, love & Kingdom blessings,
The Christ For Your City Team
