Between vacations, cable television, and everything else under the sun, there are so many activities to fill your time. With summer around the corner, you’ve probably already started planning some fun family activities that will be lasting memories for years to come. There’s one more item that you might want to add to your list this summer. You may have heard recently that, for the first time ever, the K-LOVE Fan Awards will be broadcast in theaters across the country on Tuesday, June 13th. Here are a few reasons why you should consider taking your family to go see this one-night event.
Now in its fifth year, the K-LOVE Fan Awards is a one of its kind celebration that brings together the biggest names in Christian entertainment for a night full of laughs, spectacular performances, and an encouraging message of faith. Given the number of Christians in America versus how many can make it to the K-LOVE Fan Awards, this amazing weekend has long been an exclusive event for those who love Christian music and films. Despite the Grand Ole Opry House being able to seat several thousand people, there are limitations on how many people can make it.
When attending the K-LOVE Fan Awards, you also have to take into account travel expenses, taking time off of work, etc. It can be inconvenient for many to travel to Nashville, TN. That’s why we’re so excited to have a highlighted portion of the event being screened at local theaters around the country. We still think that the best way to experience the K-LOVE Fan Awards is to be here with us in person, but the convenience of a short drive ensures that many Christian listeners can enjoy this special event for the first time ever.
We’ve made it simpler than ever to take part in the K-LOVE Fan Awards. For an affordable price, little travel, and two hours of your time, there’s never been a simpler way to enjoy the ultimate fan experience.
As you can imagine, it can be tough to work in the entertainment industry while upholding Christian values in your work. Getting connections, having the means to create the work you’re proud of, and finding an audience for that art is not always easy. There’s a decent chance that no one will ever see your work outside of family and friends. It would be so much easier to get things done if you were willing to compromise your values and shoot for a larger mainstream audience. That’s a struggle faced by many Christian filmmakers and musicians. If no one is supporting you, the pressure of finding a way to maximize your creative potential can be smothering.
That’s why it is so important to support Christian entertainment. We should be willing to invest in the Christian market so that it can grow and all believers can enjoy the work that is produced. This doesn’t mean you have to blow your whole bank account to produce a Christian film, but maybe you could buy a ticket to a show or just purchase a few songs online. You don’t have to financially support an artist or film that you don’t find particularly good, but reward those who have spoken something powerful into your life. On top of simply supporting the artists who deserve compensation for their work, you are putting your money where your mouth is and showing the world that there is a real market for Christian music, movies, and more.
When you see the K-LOVE Fan Awards in theaters on June 13th, you are supporting a growing industry and providing new pathways for future Christian artists.
It would be one thing if we were just spouting off random features that are included in a trip to see the K-LOVE Fan Awards at your local theater, but the show itself is phenomenal. This isn’t some weekend outing that a friend guilt-tripped you into attending. This is the only fan-voted award show in Christian entertainment and it brings together the biggest names in the business.
One of the best things about the event is that you get to see many of your favorite artists performing live. There’s another great thing about putting all of these popular artists together, though. You get to see and hear artists who you may have heard in passing but never been able to see perform. With Christian music exploding the way it has over the last two or three decades, there has been a recent unfolding of many great new musicians. As technology improves and the culture diversifies, we’re getting so many new voices who are eager to make music that brings glory to the name of the Lord. The K-LOVE Fan Awards allows you to see some of these newer acts as well as your established favorites.
Although there are always Christian artists touring around the country, it can be hard to find your favorite singer within a driveable distance. When you come and watch the K-LOVE Fan Awards from your local theater, you’re getting to see many of these great artists together for a cheaper price than you’d usually pay for a single ticket.
Life can be so busy. Between school, sports, work, and church, your family has probably experienced what it’s like to be burned out. That’s why it’s so important to make time for family outings that are fun and easy to plan. What could be easier than spending two hours at your local theater?
Everyone loves the movies, but it can be hard sometimes to find good Christian films that are suitable for the whole family. Sometimes it seems like Hollywood is only interested in superhero movies and raunchy comedies. Fortunately you can find good wholesome options if you know where to look. With the K-LOVE Fan Awards, you don’t have to worry about something inappropriate popping up. This allows you and your family to relax and fully enjoy an evening of great music and faith-filled messages.
Speaking of the movies, we all know one of the best parts of visiting your local theater is making a trip to the concession stand. Whether you go to one of the fancy new theaters serving full meals that you can eat in a recliner or a more classic experience of a simple Coke and popcorn combo, snacks make the moviegoing adventure all the better. Even if you eat a meal at home before attending, a box of candy and/or a tub of popcorn can be the perfect way to cap off an evening.
As you can see, there are a number of great reasons why you and your family can have a wonderful time at your local theater watching the K-LOVE Fan Awards. We always hope to see K-LOVE listeners in Nashville for the full experience, but are thrilled to finally have an option for families who can’t make it to the show. Come and join us at one of the participating theaters in your area and see what all the fuss is about!
