Acquire the Fire - Let your voice be heard

Hi, my name is Brian Ellison. I am 13 years old and one of the youth members in the youth group at Harvestland Minisitries in Clarkston, Michigan.

I went to Acquire the Fire at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan on March 7th 2008 at 7pm til 10pm & March 8th, 9am til 10pm. Acquire the Fire is where thousands of teenagers come together to worship Jesus, fellowship and listen to speakers and Christian bands. The two speakers were Ron Luce and Mike Guzzardo. There were four Christian bands and the Detroit Choir also came.

Friday night was all about worship. The second day when I arrived was again worship, a message, the bands and dinner. More worship followed and a play about Judgement Day. This was very good and stood out in my mind and made me think of how you should be more serious about being a better Christian by worshipping more and how you should leaner more about the bible and prayer.

This was a great experience for me and I know it touched a lot of people just by being able to talk to other teenager that were there.

I'm already talking to others about the next Acquire the Fire, in February 2009. This is a good message for any teenager.
