BENTON, Ark. - Amplify, one of the country’s largest Christian Music Festivals, is happening in Saline County this weekend.
To put on an event like this, people are flying in to help out, but locals are also pitching in.
A group of guys from the Saline County area volunteer in the community and at Amplify, earning them the name of the A-Team. They all have different day jobs, but Brian Nivens says they love serving and spreading the message of Christ.

The event is Amplify, held every year in Saline County.
