Team Xtreme

The Versatility of Team Xtreme

First of all, Team Xtreme is a cutting edge, evangelistic out-reach ministry of The Harvest Church International. Team Xtreme has been around the world performing awesome feats of strength and sharing the love of God for over 9 years.  The guys that make up this exciting team do incredible feats of strength like smashing stacks of concrete bricks, snapping baseball bats, tearing phone books, bending steel bars in their teeth, and coupling that with a powerful message of hope, purpose, and new life through Christ.  The unique aspect of Team Xtreme is that it is made up of men from The Harvest Church International itself, and is led by the Sr. Pastor, Brad Tuttle, who has been involved in strength team ministry, and world evangelism for over 23 years. What that means is that Team Xtreme has a heart for the local communities, schools, and families. Because Brad Tuttle and Team Xtreme are planted in a local community they have a great passion for reaching out to those surrounding communities through sharing the message of Christ's love in word and deed, and by reaching into the local schools with a non-religious message that challenges the kids and youth to make the right decisions in life. Team Xtreme also plays a part in helping those in need through clothing and food drives.  

If you are interested in bringing Team Xtreme to your church or school please contact Jana Tuttle, Team Xtreme Events Coordinator, at 972.804.9424 or jtuttle@theharvestchurchinternational.com.

Secondly, Team Xtreme partners with Elementary and Middle School Principals in their efforts in helping to unlock the great potential that lies in each one of their students. As a father, and Senior Pastor/Teacher, who has had over twenty three years experience speaking into youth’s lives, Brad understands the importance of education and the impact a teacher, and a school can have on a child.

Team Xtreme has over 40 collective years of experience speaking in public and private school assembly settings. We combine unique feats of strength with a powerful message of destiny and purpose. The feats of strength are used as a tool to draw and maintain the attention of the students ensuring that our message is not lost. Permit me to alleviate any concern that you may have about our message, it is non-religious and is relevant in subject matter to the age group that we are addressing.

Team Xtreme has been a valuable tool in the hands of principals and school administrators around the world. Those principals and administrators have commented that the content and presentation of our “Xtreme Talk” assemblies has been life changing for their students and faculty. After holding hundreds of school assemblies and talking to countless principals and administrators a common need surfaced, a need to bring a message of hope to our children in these Xtreme times. Today, our children are faced with a wide-range of distractions and pitfalls in achieving their destiny. Students at all grade levels are facing intense peer pressure, unique social, physical, and emotional complexities. The “Xtreme Talk” provides students with the means to prevent them from becoming a statistic while reinforcing the positive growth areas that include scholarship and citizenship emphasized by your school staff.  

Team Xtreme would like to partner with your efforts by bringing excitement and enthusiasm to your school by seeing students, school administrators, and their families impacted by strong, practical, and fun-filled messages of character education, motivation, inspiration and hope.  The “Xtreme Talk” assembly lasts approx. 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the time that you allocate. I am confident it will be life changing for all involved!  

To schedule a school assembly for this school year or for additional information please contact Jana Tuttle, School Events Coordinator, at 972.804.9424 or jtuttle@theharvestchurchinternational.com
