From the Comcast Arena web site, "For over 20 years Acquire The Fire has been more than a conference with great teaching, more than a concert with the top Christian bands, and more than you’ve ever experienced! Acquire The Fire is tens of thousands of youth coming together over 27 hours to be set apart from the distractions and influences of the world, long enough to encounter God in a total revolution of the heart. Many teens today are spending their time, money, and passion on pursuing “things” in order to bring them happiness. However, the best “things” in life…are not things at all; true lasting joy is found in pursuing that which is eternal."
