As America drifts further away from the God-created institutions which defined her greatness, every once in a while a gem comes out of the coal mine of post-modernism which just warms the heart, puts a smile on your face and inspire you to go have a group hug with your wife and kids! Such a gem is “QUEEN AND HER TROUBLE” – the first ever book written and published by a preacher from Shiloh, Alabama who is now pastoring a church about 530 miles northwest of his hometown, in Atteberry, Illinois.

Based on some of his true life experiences as a young boy growing up in rural Alabama in the 1970’s, Danny Heath Yielding’s  179 page book is fact-based story telling at its finest, simplest and full of authenticity.

When we started what is now JesusFest in Auburn, Illinois exactly four years ago, it was a long 6 hour concert with one band after another way past dark, at the East Park. It has since evolved into a more compact and fast moving showcase of local and regional talent, presented to our fellow citizens for FREE! JESUSFEST 4 kicks off this coming Saturday September 20 at the Bandshell of Rock and Roll Hardees, 2501 Stevenson Drive in Springfield at 4pm!

First up will be the Chosen Generation ministry Band led by Don Hunt. A lively combination of gospel singers, Christian Rappers and for the first time, a group from Taylorville, Illinois. The main attraction this year is the first Power Team we ever had at a Business Men In Christ event. The Mighty Crush 3 Power Team is officially from Litchfield, Illinois and is led by pastor and body-builder Kevin Simsberger! You won’t want to miss this. The Power Team comes on around 6:30pm at the Rock and Roll Hardees Bandshell and their message is powerful, as well as their various feats of strength.

JesusFest is timed annually to fall close to the month of October, where we recognize and honor Breast Cancer Month.  A rep from the American Cancer Society will be present.

BRING YOUR LAWN CHAIRS AND BE PREPARED TO BE BLESSED AND ENTERTAINED!
