Kidz Blitz Live is coming to F.O.B.

July 29 to August 1:

7:00 PM, Nightly 

EXCITING LIVE GAMES!

Experience this uplifting, high-energy, faith-based program for parents and kids of all ages. With fast-paced action and Super Bowl excitement, Kidz Blitz LIVE targets the elementary age kids while engaging people of all ages. With a message woven into the action, kids learn while playing . Conducting 150 events per year from coast to coast, this is now one of the most sought-after, family events in America. Reach new families in your community while providing a real boost to your children’s ministry.

Kidz Blitz Live Rocks Lakewood Church.

What is Kidz Blitz Live? Kidz Blitz Live is a one hour and 20 minute crowd participation show that we bring to your venue. One thing Kidz Blitz has mastered: turning spectators into participants! The crowd is divided into the blue team and the green team which means that just by virtue of attending this event you are a participating team member.  Kids are chosen to come on stage from both teams where they compete in quirky games and challenges that become an action, object lesson pointing to Bible principles. Meanwhile teams shout phrases that explain what the games illustrate. With a unique blend of music, visual effects, original games and crowd energy, this is the easiest event you will ever host.

What is the message of Kidz Blitz Live?

Kidz Blitz Live communicates a message of God’s grace and power. It emphasizes, not so much about what we do for God, but what He has done for us through Jesus. It has an evangelistic perspective as it focuses on a God who is active in the world.

• Jesus makes me strong on my inside (Ephesians 3:16)
• Anytime I fall down in life my God will help me get back up and keep going (Psalm 37:24)
• God can do things I have never seen before (Ephesians 3:20)
• God gives me courage (Joshua 1:7, Philippians 1:20)

Is there an invitation time during Kidz Blitz Live? There is an opportunity for kids and families to receive the Lord. The invitation for salvation is brief, free from pressure and age appropriate. It includes a confession of faith and a prayer to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. We are extremely sensitive to the beliefs and procedures of the local church. If there are any special instructions pertaining to the invitation, please speak to your event coordinator.

Where does Kidz Blitz Live take place? We bring this program to your church or any venue with an appropriate stage size.

Is my church the right size for Kidz Blitz Live? Churches and venues of all sizes have successfully hosted Kidz Blitz Live. With stage size requirements ranging from 20′x40′ all the way up to mega-church measurements, the Kidz Blitz Live set is adaptable to most church platforms. And crowds varying from 200 to 8,000 all find this kids event engaging.

Who will conduct this program? Kidz Blitz event directors are ordained ministers trained to conduct high-energy events while being attentive/sensitive to the specific objectives of the host church. Kidz Blitz events have been conducted in over 40 denominations across America. One of our event directors will bring the entire Kidz Blitz Live set to your church and will conduct the entire program.

How many volunteers from my church will it take to put on Kidz Blitz Live? You will need 6 stage volunteers, a sound technician and a media technician. We will also set up a product table in the foyer and will need 2 volunteers to run the table.

Once I book an event, what am I responsible for? Once you have scheduled your event you can check out our detailed list of how to begin planning for your Kidz Blitz Live event.

How much does Kidz Blitz Live cost? We have a wish, a dream even, to see Kidz Blitz Live and FX Live in more churches regardless of size or budget. To make this possible, we have thrown away our set fee. Kidz Blitz and FX Live no longer have a price tag. Call Ken at 800-467-1711 and lets work something out to share the message of God’s grace and power with your church families. Check out our Event Cost page for more information on pricing.

Announcing a New Discipleship Training class!!

When: Sundays at 8:45 AM

Where: F.O.B. – Conference Room

Who do you know who isn’t saved?

Where will they go if they die without Christ?

 

Discover how to reach them biblically and confidently in

The Way of the Master Basic Training Course

 

Learn to  overcome your fears by using a simple, powerfully effective way to make the gospel make sense to those you care about. You will be taught how to bypass the intellect (the place of argument) and speak directly to the conscience (the place of the knowledge of right and wrong)— the way Jesus did.

And they don’t just tell you how to witness—they show you. Through fascinating real-life conversations, you can “eavesdrop” as they witness to people from all walks of life—gang members, atheists, cult members, intellectuals,  and others.

You’ll be coaxed to gradually step out of your comfort zone. It couldn’t be more exciting or more effective. Do it for someone you love. All you need to bring is your Bible and something to take notes with.

 

If you have any questions, contact Kevin Bowman or call the church office at 957-3333.
