Who is this outreach best suited for?

This experience is ideal for churches, festivals, community events, men’s gatherings, youth outreaches, and evangelistic events where leaders want to reach both churched and unchurched people in a memorable way with the gospel.

What makes this outreach effective?

The forge attracts interest and captures attention immediately. It lowers barriers for those who may not typically attend church. You will have people attending that will likely never attend a church service.

What are the space and setup requirements?

Forged by Fire is best hosted outdoors or in a large open indoor space. We do ask that the hosts provide a team that can help move equipment and set up.

Is it safe to host indoors?

Yes. We will go out of our way to ensure safety. Unless the floor is concrete, we will put down a temporary steel covered flooring in the area where the forging takes place. This eliminates the chance of a hot piece of steel damaging the floor. The forge itself is propane burner no different than in a cooking stove or furnace. Grinders will create some dust. We will have air filtration to catch the majority of the dust, but it is possible that some dust may need to be cleaned up afterwards.

What is the cost and role of the host?

The Forged by Fire Outreach is a premier opportunity to reach your community for Jesus. It requires that the church or hosting group be fully invested in partnering with Forge M:28 to make this a successful event. That will include a financial investment, promotion and help with set up and tear down. Each event will be unique and require an established plan to determine specific costs and responsibilities. We want to work together to make an eternal difference.

Is this a gospel-centered experience?

Yes. Every Forged by Fire event is intentionally Christ-centered, grounded in Scripture, and focused on calling people to faith in Jesus.
