So we arrived at the Colonial Life building and joined Tina & friends, who had held an awesome spot in line for us, right up front at the doors. We stood there for a half hour or so until they began admittance to the concert.
Tom S. had scoped the scene and knew exactly what seats we should try to get, so he was designated Line Leader. And as you can see here in this MOB, it was a good thing we had a line leader so nobody got lost. As you can also see, 1) nobody is following our line leader and 2) our line leader is zealous about his job.
We found the seats and they were definitely great seats.The crew is happy.
Happy pappy.
As if things couldn't get any better. . . Jimmy Steen made an appearance!
Then the music began.Stephanie Smith, followed by Pure NRG warmed us up.
Brandon Heath.

Brandon Heath was followed by the last act of the night --
Toby Mac was awesome, as usual.
He is "a creative force, an artistic maverick and a prophetic voice for racial reconciliation, social justice and a fierce devotion to faith & family." I can't say it any better than this quote from his website.
The artists & administrators involved in Winter Jam give selflessly & tirelessly to reach our youth for Christ. The admittance fee is low enough for kids to afford and is far below what these artists could charge for their performances. They performed 35 times in 2 months this year. That's a lot of travel and very little sleep & "a handful of dreams and heart full of God."
