The Millennial Tour 2015 is connecting with Christian audiences as it features several artists with high-energy performances. At the same time, select artists with The Millennial Tour 2015 are filming featured roles for the "God's Not Dead 2" movie.
At the Alive Festival in Ohio last month, the set was so well-received that the festival has invited the tour back again in 2016. At Creation East in Pennsylvania, an after party performance energized a crowd of 700 youth immediately following TobyMac's performance. Music fans can experience the festival performances as footage is available at themillennialtour.com under the video tab.
Select artists for the tour are filming featured roles for the "God's Not Dead 2" movie. Abigail Duhon plays the role of Jessica, an on-screen friend of Sadie Robertson (Dancing with the Stars, Duck Dynasty), while Spencer Kane, Jor'Dan Armstrong, and Lauren and Brooke DeLeary (Love Collide) all play students involved in the story's central theme of Jesus being discussed in a public school classroom. Fans who attend The Millennial Tour 2015 will get a first look at the trailer for the upcoming movie that will release in spring 2016. The film centers around a group of high school students, and explores the historical debate of Jesus' existence in human form on earth after a teacher is fired from the school for mentioning His name in class.
"We were thrilled to have the opportunity to partner with the millennial tour kids," states Brittany Lefebvre, Producer/Director of Production, Pure Flix Entertainment. "'God's Not Dead 2' is a film for all ages and we believe that the next generation is the future of our faith and country."
