Ohio Christian University will be hosting The Silver Ring Thing's UNALTERED Tour, an event for teens and their parents, in the Ministry and Performing Arts Center on Saturday, April 13th. The mission of the tour is to lead students into the fullness of life and their goal is to empower a generation to know the truth and experience freedom and flourishing through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Acknowledging the reality that today’s students are anxious, broken, and confused, and that they are shaping their identities in likes, comments, affirmation, gender, sexuality and more, UNALTERED is an event proclaiming God’s design for love, sex and life, and inspiring teens to live with integrity and influence.
The event presents inspired, honest testimonies and live performances in a concert-style environment. They endeavor to show how God’s unaltered design can bring fulfillment to every aspect of life – from realizing your purpose, to love, and relationships.
The event is from 7:00pm to 9:00pm on Saturday, April 13th. The doors open at 6:30pm. There is a special parent session at 7:00pm. Tickets are $6.00 online and $8.00 at the door (groups of 25 or more can purchase tickets for $5.00 per person).
