16 Undeniable Truths About Christian Concerts

Last night I just got back from an NF concert and I realized there are just some inevitable truths about Christian concerts. As a self-proclaimed Winter Jam Veteran (13 years in a row baby), Passion-goer, and having practically memorized Skillet's entire act (yes, including the things they say in between songs) for their Comatose tour, I thought it would be fun to share some truths about Christian concerts you've probably experienced as well.

1. You see people with Passion or 116 shirts at every turn.

2. You'll definitely run into someone you know.


3. You'll probably need to ask the Lord for forgiveness after remembering all of the people you pushed over for good seats.

4. "I saw them when they were the opening act of Winter Jam."

5. That one youth group who bought matching shirts and takes up an entire section.

6. You'll definitely see Tim Hawkin's different phases of hand raising:

7. Pro ad-libbing.

8. Trying to one up people on how many times you've seen Skillet or TobyMac.

9. Everyone dresses super hipster.

10. "We're going to take a love offering."

11. Testimonies.

12. You don't feel so bad because everyone else in the audience is awful dancers.

13. The faces of people who came for Tenth Avenue North but have to sit through RED or TFK beforehand.

14. Moms on Christian rappers: "I can't understand him when he talks so fast. Are you sure this music is appropriate?"

15. Girls in the audience will swoon over Colton Dixon and Joel and Luke from For King & Country.

16. It's lit and everyone goes crazy for some awesome Jesus music.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
