The two artists who headlined one of the biggest Christian concert tours of the last two years say they aim to entertain, but more importantly, to transform lives with the gospel. Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham traveled the country in 2023 and 2024 as part of their Summer Worship Nights Tour, featuring their award-winning music and their testimonies about Christ's power. Fans who missed the tour or want to relive it can do so in theaters from Oct. 27-29 with the tour documentary For the One, featuring highlights and the stories behind the music.
"I often say it's more than entertainment," Lake told Crosswalk Headlines. "[Of course,] we want people to be entertained if they're sacrificing a lot for a ticket and taking time off, maybe from work, or going to work the next day, maybe tired -- but we really want people to have an encounter. That's what it's all about."
The tour's message is "for the one who's far from God, or who needs a breakthrough, who needs to encounter this living God that loves them so much."
"That's really what this is all about," Lake said. "Yes, we want them to be entertained, but we want them to walk out better than they came in."
