The Rock and Worship Road Show has betrayed us

Alright, so most of you may have heard of The Rock and Worship Road Show. It's a really cheap series of concerts featuring MercyMe and many other big bands in Christian music. I've been twice, and it's really awesome, especially when your dad doesn't believe in spending money to see a band in concert. it's just about the only concert I'm guaranteed to go to every year.

Long story short, I thought they would always come to my neigbor city of Fresno, because MercyMe loved us, and for good reason too. WE ROCKED THEM! They didn't rock us. I bet we are the best crowd in the whole tour. Bart Millard of MercyMe said so himself the first year I went . . .



You with me so far? In a sentence, the Road Show owes us for being the awesomest crowd on the tour. Why should I care you ask? Well, I just found out that the Road Show WILL NOT me coming to Fresno this year!!!!!! And right when I was getting super worked up about seeing Thousand foot Krutch in concert for the first time.

Honestly, I'm sad. Almost as sad as I was when I thought that I wasn't going to go to my first Skillet concert (I went after all in case you were wondering). How could they do this to us? How could they completely bypass the city that made the tour?

I'm sad, very sad. I hope that all the rest of the people of Fresno are just as upset as I am, and I hope they let the bands know. Who knows? Maybe we can change their minds through some crazy internet thing. It has happened before.


The band I won't be seeing ='(
Thousand Foot Krutch

What my life would look like without Jesus

My mom and I were talking last night, and I posed a question that we both shuddered at. Where would we be without Jesus? We dropped the subject pretty fast (for obvious reasons), but later that night and the next day, I couldn’t help thinking about it. Where would I be? How different would I be?

I would never have met most of my closest friends, since I met most of them in church. I would have never even tried to play the piano, and even if I had I wouldn’t have stuck with it. I would have never heard about Skillet (that alone makes me shudder). In the absence of these things there would most likely be violence. I don’t like to admit it sometimes, but I’m a violent person. I would probably be a pregnant teenager in jail for multiple accounts of murder without Jesus. That is, if I was even still alive at all.

Think about it. Where would you be right now if God hadn’t saved you from yourself?
