About Kingdom Bound
About Us
Does Kingdom Bound Ministries operate one of the nation's leading family Christian Music Festivals? Yes! But we're also much, much more!
For over two decades through much prayer and with the help of people like you we've reached into our community, caring for our audiences in a variety of innovative ways.
Kingdom Bound Ministries has reached over one million people with The
Gospel through the Arts.
With a focus on Biblical truth and a reputation for excellence in ministry, we've tackled relevant subject matter such as abstinence, purity, youth, parenting, self-esteem, our mission's influences on modern media, and a host of other contemporary topics. Through the years, words like "genuine" and "friendly" have been used to describe our dedicated staff, and we trust in God's grace to continue in that tradition.
In 2006, Kingdom Bound Ministries became one of the founding members of the Christian Festival Association. The goal of the CFA is to provide and facilitate an open communications environment that links Christian festival organizers together for encouragement, shared information and resources, and addressing common business circumstances and goals. The purpose is for increased success and professionalism of participating festivals so that the Gospel of Jesus Christ may be advanced and glory brought to Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Music
Kingdom Bound Ministries has presented over one hundred musical events - inspiring our audience and changing lives with exhilarating, cutting-edge Christian music, groups and speakers such as
Newsboys,
Michael W. Smith, Casting Crowns, Steven Curtis Chapman, Skillet, Mercy Me, TobyMac,
Dr. Kevin Leman, Pam Stenzel, Bob Lenz and many more.
Training, teaching, equipping
As part of our expanding vision we've recently partnered with Christian Music Summit (CMS). The Kingdom Bound sponsored
CMS
at The Chapel at Crosspoint in Getzville, NY is a leading conference for worship leaders, musicians, technicians, pastors, songwriters, and independent artists to improve skill and inspire talent. CMS provides instruction and workshops in: Leadership (Worship/Pastoral), Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Bass, Drums/Percussion, Keyboards, Songwriting, Audio and Video. Over 30 presenters representing the best of the Christian Music Industry share in these teaching workshops and seminars. Our second year of the Kingdom Bound CMS conference saw
20%
growth in registered attendees despite the worst economic recession in recent history! The future of CMS means unity, strength and growth for your church or ministry.
Local Church Advocate
Kingdom Bound has also been blessed to invest in others as well. Through the years we've been strong advocates for your church family as we've cared about and worked closely with local churches and pastors providing well over a quarter of a million dollars in more than 300 local, regional, national and international churches and ministries to help bring the living Word to the needs of people.
We are currently seeking the Lord about expanding our resources, specifically to bless local churches throughout the world.
Encouraging Your Gifts and Callings
Our ministry has also picked up the baton to conduct annual Talent Competitions since the early 90's. More than a contest, the Kingdom Bound Talent Competition continues to be a launching pad for young Christian artists to fulfill their God-given calling.
Our beloved Founder Fred Caserta established Kingdom Bound Ministries on a foundation
of
prayer. It is our hearts desire to see God's presence and His will be done
at Kingdom Bound Ministries. Prayer is and always will be a primary and guiding
value of "KBM".
