About The Vision
The 6,500-seat Big Jesus Tent is a hub for city transformation where the lost, the curious and the skeptical can gather to hear the Gospel. We are believing for 100+ churches and nonprofit ministries to unite with us this October 2023, mobilizing volunteers, bringing the lost and providing resources for the brokenhearted.
Each night Nick Vujicic will share a Gospel message of hope that touches the themes from our 12 Champions for the Brokenhearted initiatives: the Trafficked, Unborn, Disabled, Prisoner, Orphan (Foster), Widowed, Addicted, Abused, Suicidal, Bullied, Veteran, and the Poor. For every new believer in the Tent, we have a strong discipleship process, and church integration strategy.

Champions for the Brokenhearted seeks to provide hope and healing to the lost, broken and skeptical.

This year we will be highlighting one of our 12 Champions for the Brokenhearted themes each night in the tent
