MUNTINLUPA CITY, PHILIPPINES (Catholic Online) - War Room, a faith-based film that made waves in the box office this past weekend, inspired a group of Christian leaders in Charlotte, North Carolina to perform Christian music inside the local mall.
Several people present at the mall during the performance were both inspired and impressed by the happy performance, claiming they had "never seen anything like it."
Jim Quick, President and CEO of redFONT Marketing was fortunately in the theater during the performance and managed to capture a few minutes of the performance with his phone and post it on his Facebook page.
"I was in the lobby when the singing started. It originally started with the group out in the atrium of Concord Mills Mall. There was a small group that started singing and then others joined in. They then moved into the lobby of the movie theater to sing their second song," he explained.
Quick said the group purchased movie tickets through Cooperative Christian Ministries, an organization that helps homeless people in their community. They wanted to sing in an effort to draw attention to War Room.
"They wanted to encourage those attending 'War Room' and perhaps encourage others to buy a ticket," Quick further explained. "Strangers were coming up to the group and saying 'thank you.' I heard a woman say 'That was so inspiring, I felt the power of the Holy Spirit in the theater.'"
The group was composed of ministry leaders from the churches in Charlotte and was also joined by at least 30 people who sang, "How Great is Our God," a popular Christian song, while dancing to the music.
