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.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
