Our mission is to share the Good News and love of Jesus Christ. It may seem
to you that there are So Many Roads to ease your soul but there's
truly only one way that will take you home. Jesus said "I am the way,
the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through
me." (John 14:6).

We've been traveling to shows & festivals off and on for almost 20 years.
We've come across many people seeking truth, seeking peace, seeking love,
seeking worship, seeking freedom, seeking community, seeking adventure,
and seeking something higher. The Bible tells us to seek God and His kingdom
first and He'll take care of meeting all of our other needs. "...and He will give
you all you need from day to day if you live for Him and make the Kingdom of
God your primary concern." (Matthew 6:33).

Once in a while you get shown the light
In the strangest of places if you look at it right
-Scarlet Begonias

Ask Jesus to open your eyes, your ears, your mind, and your heart, and reveal
Himself to you.

Greatest Story Ever Told

There is salvation in no one
else! There is no other name
in all of heaven for people to
call on to save them.

The Greatest Story
Ever Told

"For God so loved the world that he
gave his only Son, so that everyone
who believes in him will not perish but
have eternal life."
John 3:16

The Gospel,
it means Good News.
Check it out

Our greatest desire is for people to come to
know God personally. The simple truth is
that there is a God who created you and
loves you very much. (Genesis 1:1) He gave
us life and deserves our gratitude and love.

We, however, have chosen to disobey Him
and sin against Him; all of us have done
wrong and failed to do what is right.
(Romans 3:23) We may not be more sinful
than our neighbor, or we may be far worse
than anyone we know, it does not matter.
Either way, we are guilty before God.
(1 John 1:8)

God is perfect, completely good, always
right and fair. He cannot tolerate sin. He
cannot simply overlook the fact that we
have chosen to disobey Him. The Bible says
"the wages of sin is death." (Romans 6:23)
This means that the fair payment for our
rebellion against God is death. It is the
punishment that we deserve.

Jesus, the one and only Son of God, came to
earth and lived a perfect sinless life. He
was crucified even though He was completely
innocent. He received the punishment that
we deserved. He was the perfect sacrifice,
He was put into our place and took on
Himself the sentence of death that should
have been ours. (Romans 5:8)

Jesus did not, however, remain dead. After
three days, He rose from the grave and
later ascended into heaven. He will return
for all those who are trusting in Him as
their Savior.

Jesus died for you. You can be saved by
asking Him for forgiveness from your sins.
If you are willing to repent of your sin, He
is waiting to forgive you. It doesn't matter
what you have done in the past, if you cry
out to Jesus for forgiveness, He will not
reject you. The word "repent" literally
means "to turn away from." You need to look
at your life, admit that you are a sinner,
genuinely desire to turn your back on that
sin, and ask Him to forgive you. If you do
this, He promises to forgive you.

True Christianity is not about attending a
particular church, or how your parents
raised you, or what country you were born
in. Being a Christian means that you have a
personal relationship with Jesus Christ, that
He is your Savior. It's not good enough that
your priest, pastor, mother, or aunt knows
Jesus, you must know Him for yourself.
They cannot believe in Him for you, you
must believe for yourself. They cannot
repent for you, you must repent for
yourself.

Jesus is everywhere all the time. He can
hear you now if you ask Him for forgiveness.
Please turn your life over to Him now. Time
slips by so quickly, don't miss this
opportunity. If you want to pray and ask
Jesus to be your Savior, you can say a
prayer something like this:

"Jesus, I know that I have sinned against
you. I know the truth is that I have sinned
by my own choice, and I am the one
responsible for it. I know that I have
earned punishment from You, and that the
fair punishment would be death. Jesus, I
believe that You died in my place. Forgive
me for my sin. I cannot cover or take my
sin away, I am relying totally and only on
You. You are the only one who can save me.
I reject my sin, I turn away from it, I
repent. Come into my life, take away my
sin, and show me how to live my life in a way
that is right and pleasing to You."

I asked Jesus to forgive me.
NOW WHAT DO I DO?

If you have just prayed this prayer, please
contact us we'd love to hear from you, pray
for you, and answer any questions you may
have.
