Rev Gen Music Fest to Hit New Jersey Farm with Top Christian Artists

Following a fantastic crowd of over 4,000, Revelation Generation is returning this weekend for a second round of popular Christian music, activities and worship.

Revelation Generation (Rev Gen) is an annual outdoor Christian Music festival targeting Christian and non-Christian youths. The all-day event will feature top artists such as Relient K, Newsboys, MXPX, KJ-52, Salvador, The Afters, Plumb, House of Heroes and Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell. Speakers include Duffy Robbins, Kurt Schafer and Stephen Baldwin.

"This year, we feel we have put together a complete entertainment and spiritual experience - from the star-studded lineup of music artists and speakers, to the full-range of family-oriented games and activities," said Robert Grom, co-founder of Rev Gen.

One attendant of last year's inaugural music festival, Micah Jacobus, called it a great way to introduce unsaved people to Christ through music.

"The concert itself was a great way to get unsaved people to hear that Christian music isn't just boring music with a choir; Christian music is the same as secular music except that instead of bringing people down or talking about obscene subjects, they talk about God and all He's done for them," said Jacobus on the Rev Gen website.

On Sept. 2, the equine training and barn facility for horses will become the grounds for thousands of youths and families to celebrate renewal and fellowship and find opportunities to be a part of the Christian community. Attendants will be surrounded not only by music, but also a prayer tent, puppet shows, face painting, rides, and sporting areas.

Rev Gen was founded by Grom and wife Kim Grom who open up their 140-acre farm in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, year-round to host events such as paintball ministry events, youth camps and concerts.
