ABOUT US:
L.I.O.N Players is an outreach ministry based out of Akron, Ohio. The purpose of L.I.O.N Players is two-fold: to encourage teens and college students to live lives of sexual purity and to introduce people to the person of Jesus Christ. Abstinence and sexual purity cannot be presented without explaining why God created us and why He designed marriage between a man and a woman. It is through Christ that people can be made whole and have the strength to remain sexually pure in a world that has twisted sexual relations.
To achieve these goals, L.I.O.N. uses the performing arts (drama, mime, dance, testimonies, and music). The program L.I.O.N. presents is merely a vehicle to connect with the audience, to pray with people, and to introduce them to Jesus. The majority of ministry done by the L.I.O.N. Players is done after the performance, during times of personal interaction with attendees.
L.I.O.N. is an acronym that stands for Life Isn't Only Now, and encourages young people to consider the eternal consequences of their actions here on earth, and to develop spiritually, and live lives of moral integrity in accordance to God's Word, the Bible. The name L.I.O.N. also represents Jesus Christ, the Lion of Judah, who according to Revelations 5:5 has triumphed!
