"We are very excited about the I Am Not For Sale Tour. It combines two things we're passionate about; sharing music with others that speaks to our desperate need for Christ, and engaging in the abolition of slaves around the world. With an estimated 30 million slaves around the world, we believe the tour is a very tangible way to get involved. This is a fight we must win."
- Doug Elder, Vocals/Guitar

"This is a defining time in our culture and in history in general. As followers of Christ, or even just as human beings who are awake, we have to ask ourselves, 'Where do we stand in the fight against modern day slavery, and what are we willing to do?' What would we do if a member of our own family were being exploited? When we are confronted with the stark reality of this issue in these terms, it can be sickening, horrifying, and enraging. The empowering logic, brilliance, and will of Not For Sale gives great focus and resolve to all of us in the band that we can see the end of human trafficking in our generation. What could be better?"
- Darren Elder, Drums

The band is also thrilled to present their latest video, "View From the Top", which showcases their unique rock sound and a fresh message of grace for their listeners. Please take a moment to watch and enjoy the creative design elements that complement this terrific song. You can view and share the video by clicking here.
