God brought 20-year-old Bryan Clem from northern Indiana to Chattanooga, he said.
“We heard that God is here strong — you come here and you’re guaranteed to be rocked,” he said, swaying to the music as the first service of the 11th annual Winter Ramp — a conference that offers three days of Christian worship, teaching and music to young people — kicked off.
Clem made the nine-hour drive with other people from his church and said he didn’t think twice about paying the $50 early registration fee.
“It’s God,” he said, and shrugged. “I’d do anything.”
