About The Fire Shaq (IS NOW CLOSED! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!)
IT HAS BEEN AN AMAZING FOUR YEARS! SORRY TO LET YOU ALL KNOW, BUT WE ARE NOW CLOSED! THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SUPPORT YOU SHOWED! WE WILL MISS THE GREAT TIMES WE HAD! IT WAS A TRUE BLESSING! GOD BLESS!
ATTENTION BANDS: We only book Christian artists at this venue! We don't think Christian bands are any better, but to fulfill our mission, we rely on them! To help others out, we do have a contact list for other venues - it is under our blogs under "Other Venues List" - check it out for the most updated list!!! If you are a venue and want added to the list (Indiana and Midwest only PLEASE) shoot us an email with all your info! Bands that HAVE NOT played here before need to check out our guidelines BEFORE contacting us. PLEASE mention that you read them and can meet them when contacting us. It will save both of us time. Check out our guidelines under our BLOG section!! Thanks!
WHAT WE ARE: A non-profit COMMUNITY organization whose main focus is to share Jesus with others in a way that is unique & is a blast! We BELIEVE and we KNOW that being a Christian is supposed to be challenging but FUN! We want all persons to feel welcome - whether a Christian or not. 1 John 3:18 says "...let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth". We want ALL persons to feel welcome and enjoy our facility!
FREE NO COVERCHARGE WEEKENDS
We are open the first and third full weekends of every month.
FRIDAYS are "chill" night where youth (or youth minded) can come and listen to rockin' Christian music, play board games, pool, ping pong, card games or just come and talk. We also have a "theme" that night (ie open mic, pool tournaments, acoustic night, etc.). Usually a youth volunteer will give a short testimony, share scripture, express where they are at in their relationship with God, etc. Usually this will last anywhere from one to fifteen minutes. We feel that youth will listen to youth - so don't expect a bunch of long-winded adults to be IN-YOUR-FACE, we're not like that. Do YOU feel led to share something in your heart? Contact us via myspace & we'll set up a time YOU can share!
SATURDAYS those weekends are as follows starting January 2008: 1st Saturday will be Karaoke Night. 3rd Saturday of the month will be worship night. We'll have some local worship bands come and play contemporary worship music. Pool tables, air hockey, and other games will still be available as well. This is a night of worship and fun! Interested in playing one of the worship nights? Contact Zak by emailing him at cristianbassist@aol.com (YES, we know the spelling is wrong, but the correct spelling was not available when he signed up!) Hours of operation: 8pm-11ishpm.
SPECIAL EVENT NIGHTS
On other nights (currently once a month) we have special concerts with a small cover charge - check out our event listing! Usually we'll have 6 Christian hardrock to hardcore bands here tearing it up! Come join in for the fun! Usual covercharge is only 5 bucks! Cheap entertainment for as many as 4 hours!!!

Pleas pray for Mike ( my son ), I feel he's got pneumonia..
He's got the same symptoms as you would have pneumonia. Feelin very hot, then cold, sharp pains in his chest, his head is on fire, etc...
And his dad won't do anythin about it and im doin the best that I can to come up to Michigan asap... And nobody else will take him to the hospital / doctors neither...cuz Mike has no insurance, and his dad doesn't wanna pay for a high bill...
I do have somethin that'll cover some of the bills ( when he sees a doctor ), but I gotta make some phone calls and take care of some business ( about it ) tomarrow.... So in the mean time, please pray for him to get better really soon
