Lynchburg, VA – C-SPAN plans to record portions of The Awakening 2011, which will be held on the campus of Liberty University April 8-9. This would be the first time C-SPAN has come to Liberty University. More than 60 national speakers will make presentations at The Awakening 2011, which will include plenary sessions, panel discussions, breakout sessions, and live music by SonicFlood and other bands and singers. This year’s theme is Raising our Voices: Equipping and Empowering a New Revolution. Registration is free and open to the public, but tickets must be reserved at www.TheAwakening2011.com.

The first plenary session begins at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, April 8, during Convocation in Liberty University’s Vines Center, with Lila Rose, who exposed Planned Parenthood in undercover videos. Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich will speak at an invitation-only luncheon following convocation. On Friday afternoon, a documentary tracing the history of the conservative movement and the documentary Maafa 21 will be shown, along with an invitation-only premiere of Courageous. Beginning at 6:00 p.m. Friday, the second plenary session will begin with the theme, The Conservative Movement and Its Future. Congressman Tom Price will speak, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann will deliver a special message to the attendees and there will be a panel discussion addressing “The Three Legs of Conservatism.” The third plenary session will begin on Saturday at 8:00 a.m. with the theme, Conservatism and a New Generation. Following that session there will be nearly 20 breakout sessions which will feature presentations on social, economic, and national defense issues. The event will conclude Saturday evening with the New Revolution Celebration and a concert by SonicFlood, a band called “The Fathers of Modern Worship Music.” SonicFlood has sold more than 2 million records and performed around the world.

The Awakening 2011 represents a unique combination of voices that span race, ethnicity, and generations, united by their desire to inspire and mobilize this generation to start a cultural revolution that will lead America back to its founding principles.

Mathew Staver, Founder of Liberty Counsel and Dean of Liberty University School of Law, remarked: “Excitement is building for The Awakening 2011. We are living at a unique time in American and World history. People of all generations are coming together to celebrate faith and freedom. Freedom is not passed on by birth. Each generation must carry the torch.”
