A Revolution at Ball State

As a college student, Neil Kring flaunted a mullet and devoted his energies to staying out of rehab. Today, he’s on staff with GCM at Ball State University and pastors a campus church called “The Revolution.” Learn how God used GCM to influence change in his life.

Notice how they draw the glory unto themselves: "learn how God used [US]"...rather than recognizing as does scripture that we're just heralds and that God does all the real work. I could argue with someone all day about immorality or worldliness, or false doctrine, or whatever, reasonably from scripture--searching it with them and informing them of literary devices and hermeneutical principles (provided I knew all that stuff well enough) and it might make no difference without them being softened and convicted by God's Holy Spirit.
