I have been on the road speaking ever since this whole Ted Haggard thing broke. I did two debates with Ron Jeremy on secular college campuses and got hit pretty hard with some questions about this whole incident. Here are my thoughts.

The world thinks we (Christians) are hypocrites. We are great at saying one thing and doing another. This whole situation is another great example of...

From PA TO Canada to Califonia, we will be hitting three campuses this month. Come on out if you are nearby. More recaps to come as the events happen.

I have never seen a flag that big before. This morning I was speaking at William Jessup University in Rocklin, CA. Turns out Laura Bush, the first lady, is speaking tonight at a rally for the republican party at the university. I walked on the stage, told the crowd that Laura is doing well and is really excited about the rally and I heard it was going to be a little rowdy. Turns...

Okay, just to let you all know. We don't take Wally anywhere really. He has made a few appearances at porn shows and has his own website www.wallythewiener.com but we have taken all pictures and info about Wally off our site. There is a place for Wally and there are places Wally should not go. We have never taken Wally to church. Just so everyone knows, Wally was invited to come to North...

We just got back from an amazing trip to the Dominican Republic. It was part of the Starving Jesus Tour. On the tour we worked with Compassion International and got over 625 kids sponsored. Basically, these kids who have very little now will receive education, clothing, bible teaching, food and so much more. We had about 12 of us on the trip and it was truly life changing. More info. on...

A few weeks ago we were made aware of a girl named Crissy who had accepted Jesus and wanted to leave the porn industry. I emailed back and forth with Crissy and then got on the phone. Immediately, I could tell this girl was serious. Here is what she said to me in an email

These are the steps I have taken so far in my walk with God:

1.  I haven't done any shoots in about a month (since the day...

Changes Ahead

It is with great sadness that I announce the departure of Mike Foster from the ministry of XXXchurch.com. In January of 2007 XXXchurch.com will celebrate 5 years of ministry. We could not have dreamed X3church would have had the impact it has on the world. It has been awesome to watch as millions of people have come to get help through XXXchurch.

Change is good and sometimes necessary for...

These past few days, I was at Central Assembly Church in Springfield, MO, Baylor University in Waco, TX, and Asbury Seminary in Kentucky. My friend Jamie from www.twloha.com has been hanging out with me for the past week or so. He is written an amazing story based on his experience with a girl named Renee and now is in the process of starting a ministry. Anyways, the trip was good, lots...

The debate tonight at James Madison University was pretty amazing. If you did not know today, September 13th was the last day of the Starving Jesus tour. We wrapped up this morning in NYC and everyone went their different directions. I jumped on a plane and headed to Virginia. Ron overslept or missed his flight so he was running about 3 hours late. I had rented a car and stayed back to...
