What is Be Different?



Many questions have been raised about what exactly Be Different is so here you go!:
What is Be Different?
- Be Different is a movement of passionate individuals that want to live out what Jesus taught. So often we go to church and become passionate for the night and that's it. Be Different is all about taking that passion and doing something with it and allowing what we hear to actually change us! Jesus always bound his teachings, his word, and his life to action and Be Different is committed to living out that action: to serve and love.
Where does the money from the Tshirt sales go?
- 50% of every tshirt sold is taken and used toward feeding and clothing the homeless and less fortunate in the community and across Southern California. Each Tshirt is 15$ so every purchase in turn buys a meal for someone. The other 50% of profits goes back into making more tshirts, new designs, new ideas, etc so that we can continue our ministry.
Why "Be Different"?
- To be honest the term "Be Different" came from a random lady inside Morongo Casino while we were waiting in a room for the show "Minute to Win It" ha. However, since that day the simple phrase has become so much more to us all. It has become a way of life! John 8 tells a story of an adulteress woman being caught in the act and Jesus' reaction is the reason for Be Different. John 8:11 "Neither do I condemn you; go and from now on sin no more", Jesus is saying It's not ok for you to experinence my love, my grace, my forgiveness and you to stay the same! Be Different is all about encountering that love,grace, and forgiveness and allowing it to move us!
