Does anyone know of a Christian event in the UK that does not require a small fortune to attend?
I am not talking about the church outreach programs but festivals that I can take the family to. It seems that there is a good profit margin in the production of a festival within the UK and I am not sure who actually profits from it. When I compare this to the US market, it seems that all the best events across the pond are either free or nearly free. This then makes the events inclusive rather than the UK mentality of exclusive. That reminds me of Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Life description of a perfect church and the lack o them – well maybe these UK events are the first step towards this mentality. What about us chaps who can’t afford to spend huge amounts to attend events?
I am no expert on this subject matter but the only ‘free’ event that I know about in the UK is in Devon during August but surely there must be others but where is the Christian event calendar which promotes this – in fact why not start one know. If you know of a good Christian festival which does not requires a month’s wages to attend, then please leave a comment below.
A free Christian music event in the UK would be a great idea. It’s no wonder the church is in decline across the northern hemisphere. The problem is I’m not sure if you’ll ever get enough big names to donate their time… Maybe one put together by local churches would be an idea?
