The Wacky Adventures of Josh and Chad: Agape Festival

 Well everybody! Myself and my twin brother Chad had just gotten back from another interesting event in the form of the Agape Festival. For those who didn't see my previous post about it, here is a quick reminder. The Agape Festival is a Christian music festival that has come and replaced the recently canceled Creation Festival. 

When me and Chad first heard about it a while back, we decided to see what it is all about. Now in fairness to the event, I did not expect it to be as big as Creation was right away. This is an upstart festival that is trying to build back up.

The festival was led by the Jesus Ministries who are looking to bring people closer to Christ and help inspire many others who are struggling with whatever ails them.

One of the first things me and Chad did was walk through the woods and I got to show him around some of things I saw when Creation was still around. We were giving a life by some volunteers to the top of the hill where we got to see the lookout post and what view it was.

There were several new artists who are looking to spread their love of God through their music which was one of the reasons Chad and I decided to go see. One of those new artists was a friend of ours named Hayden Snook who performed with his band including his famous song Temples Fall. 

I must say I really enjoyed hearing Hayden and his band play, it really was amazing! There was another amazing performer at the event as well that we really loved was a man named Matt Sassano. He certainly "rocked" the house! 😏 See what did there? I know bad puns lol.

The only bad part of the day was it was HOT!!!!! Thankfully there was plenty of places to go and cool off as they had a few areas what they call Mist areas and get sprayed by a very refreshing mist. 

Another place you can go to is in the center of the farm where we got some Shaved Ice, which was awesome by the way. Also there was some funnel cake, grilled cheese sandwiches, and several other foods. 

Now remember there is only two more days left of the Agape Festival with more bands performing on Saturday and everything will finish up on Sunday with a Sunday service at 10 a.m. inside the Longbarn.

Can again, it is a smaller festival than it has been in years past. But, only takes a seed right? Hopefully this is the start of something beautiful.

If you want your tickets you can get them online https://www.agapefarm.com/agapefest and present them to the people at the gate.

Me and Chad had an amazing time and we both thank everybody at the festival for their kindness and hospitality. 

Check out the Agape Festival!

Until next time! God Bless and Be Safe! 🙏🙏🙏

Lewistown Area High School Class of 2009

 I can't believe it has been 15 years since me and Chad have graduated from Lewistown Area High School back in 2009. High school was a very interesting time for not just myself, but for many of us who had attended, mainly because usually times at high school is the time of getting to know ones self and discover who they are and what there place is in this world. Being a teenage to becoming a young adult can be very challenging to a lot of people during this time in life. Especially with dealing with all sorts of different emotions that we didn't understand before. Sadly, there are also a lot of young people who struggled to figure things out during their time in high school and I was certainly one of those people.  I mention this because recently I found and looked back through my yearbook when I graduated from Lewistown and it was pretty cool to see some old faces especially now that I am older and learned so much about myself. The only problem about this is I wish I knew what

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting

Is It Worth It To Keep Fighting?

 You know the thing I hate the most about dealing with depression and just mental health in general is the simple fact that I know that there are so many people in this world you is dealing with struggles in their lives. And I keep telling myself to stay humble and be grateful for everything I have in this world and that things can always be worse, but, I ultimately just end up hating myself. I wish I was stronger, I really do because I feel embarrassed about feeling this way. I hate it! I really, really hate dealing with this crap in my head! I mean, there are people dealing with cancer and other diseases, people who are struggling with addiction, you know we all got problems. So I do apologize I am honestly not trying to make this about me because I ain't anything special and most likely never will be. I'm just so frustrated about life and just trying to find meaning in anything really. My whole life I have tried my best to prove that I can do something with myself and overco
