WASHINGTON, June 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Museum of the Bible is thrilled to announce that in partnership with Freedom 250 and in the spirit of "Faith, Values and Inspiration Day" at the Great American State Fair, they will take over the main stage on Wednesday, July 1, from 4 to 9 p.m., in partnership with K-LOVE and Great American Pure Flix. The full program, titled "The Bible and the American Story," will be a celebration of the Bible's enduring impact on U.S. history and how it continues to impact lives today.

"From our nation's founding, the Bible has profoundly shaped the ideals, values and vision of the United States. Its influence can be seen in the lives and writings of many of America's Founding Fathers and in the enduring principles that we find in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution," said Dr. Carlos Campo, president and CEO of Museum of the Bible. "As we commemorate America's 250th anniversary on the National Mall, we are honored to celebrate the book that has shaped our history, inspired our culture and transformed countless lives."

The evening will feature performances by Maverick City Music, Matthew West, Jordan Feliz, Blanca and Ryan Ellis. There will also be a very special sunset concert with a surprise Grammy Award-winning and 28-time Dove Award-winning worship artist.

Special speakers will be included in the program, including Dr. Alveda King, Reverend Samuel Rodriquez, Pastor Ben Stuart and Museum of the Bible founders Steve and Jackie Green. Museum of the Bible will also present information on the importance of biblical archaeology and scholarship. The evening will end with a special projection on the Washington Monument.

The full event will be streamed live on Great American Pure Flix at app.pureflix.com/freedom250.

"At Great American Media, we believe some moments deserve to bring people together, and Freedom 250 is one of them," said president and CEO Bill Abbott. "We're honored to partner with the Museum of the Bible and K-LOVE to share an evening that celebrates faith, freedom and the values that continue to unite our nation. We hope families across America are encouraged and inspired by this special event."
