See these guys? They are on the road with us every show. They are the ones that set up stuff and make things work. They are also the guys that you are going to be looking for once you are in the building. Why are you going to look for them? Because each day they are going to have two coupons for free CD’s from the merch table. All you have to do is know the ‘code word’ to get a coupon from them. Each day we will Tweet a code word before the show. The Tweet will look something like this: MM Crew Hunt: ”Guitar”. Then you’d go up to one of these guys and say “Guitar” and they’d give you a coupon. Seems easy right? Now, these guys only have two coupons each so once they are out, they are gone, so you need to hurry and find them.
There is also a “mystery” crew guy out there named Dustin. He was too shy to get his picture taken so you don’t get to know what he looks like. Here’s a hint. He’s running sound. So there it is. Come to the show and Follow Us On Twitter for a chance to say hi to our crew boys and pick up a free CD.

It’s that time again, and you know what that means. Tomorrow marks the first day of of our Fall tour cleverly titled “An Evening With MercyMe”. Joining us out on the road for the first half are the boys from Fee and Mr. Jonny Diaz. Then later Tenth Avenue North will be joining us.
We’ve got some great things planned for the tour for both the folks in the cities we are visiting and also for you people in Internet land. If we’re coming to your town you want to make sure you are following us on Twitter for giveaways, Official Tweet&Greets, and even some hidden tickets. It’s going to be awesome…. we promise.
Let’s start with a roll call here in the comments. Who’s coming out to the shows and in what city?
Stay tuned for more.

So we just spent the last hour or so with a sweet little girl named Kate Mcrae. Kate is 5 1/2 and is has just finished her 2nd roi d of Chemo to fight a brain tumor that she and her family were shocked to find out about in July. This little girl was smiling and telling us how to sing Pop it Lock it Poke a dot it, which is apparently a Hannah Montana ditty, even though she felt miserable.
We’re asking again for you guys to pray and pray hard for God to be shown off through Kate and her family. Her dad is a pastor here in Phoenix and both of her parents, Aaron and Holly have already been showing Jesus to those around them in the hospital. Pray for continued strength for them as they trust God in this trial.

August 26, 2009Most of you may remember a few months back us asking for you guys to pray and help out our friend James Christopher, well, we need you again.
Today James Christopher is in NYC having yet another VERY painful bone marrow biopsy done. Pray that this procedure is as painless as possible and he’s back on his feet in no time. More than that, pray that it comes back with a PERFECT report of God’s healing on his body.
Ultimately, we and James Christopher would all want you to pray that God’s will be done in and through him in this struggle he faces on a daily basis. This kid would blow everyone f you away if you knew him….his faith and even his knowledge of the Word at the age of 12 is astounding. i know God has prepared James Christopher for great things and we all get the privilege of praying for him now!!!
Thanks MM S.L.O.B.s!!!!
