Matthew 9:36-38
"When Jesus saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
ABOUT GROUNDWIRE
And so, the strategy behind Groundwire was born. Creating compelling and well-produced video content, purchasing ad space on popular social media platforms, and interrupting the noise of today with the hope of Jesus. Groundwire brings a message of God’s loving kindness, his grace and compassion, to teens and young adults.
While preaching and teaching the younger generations in churches, Sean felt another call from God, to go to the lost rather than waiting for the lost to come. Looking across his church community, he realized the lost were found outside of these walls and it was time for him to bring the gospel to them. So, where were they?
The answer to that question quickly became clear, they are everywhere and yet connected through social media channels. That was it. That was the place where Sean could bring the gospel to the lost.
SEAN DUNN AND HIS WIFE, JENE
Sean's Story
A yes to be a part of God’s vision and mission for the youth of America. A heart for the lost and a deeply rooted faith in Jesus sustained him.
When Groundwire founder and President, Sean Dunn first heard a call toward ministry, he responded with a resounding “Yes.”
Today, Groundwire operates multiple campaigns including JesusCares.com and WhenLifeHurts.com, as well as running campaigns in Spanish as AJesusleImporta.com and CuandolaVidaDuele.com. Each campaign invites viewers to chat with someone who cares through the 24/7 chat feature. Connecting people with coaches who are trained to listen, encourage, and ultimately point chatter to Jesus.
Just like Sean said “yes” to God’s calling for his life, our hope is to lead the lost and broken to saying their own “yes” to a life with Jesus Christ.

We are convinced that Jesus Christ gave His life on the cross to redeem mankind from the sin nature we are born into and give eternal life; no one comes to the Father except through His Son, Jesus Christ. Salvation is a free gift for all who confess to the Lord Jesus with their mouth, believe in the resurrection of Christ, and repent from their sin.

We are convinced that God created human beings–male and female–in his image. “Gender” is an intentional and good part of God’s creation, and human sexuality is a precious gift designed to be shared exclusively in a monogamous marriage between one man born male and one woman born female. The Bible also regards singleness as sacred, teaching that some glorify God with their sexuality by living a life of celibacy.

Groundwire brings the hope of the Gospel to the younger generations by placing well-produced, relevant video content on the most popular social media platforms.
