About The Thorn
In 1996, while working as youth pastors in Colorado, John and Sarah Bolin and their team created The Thorn to communicate to students their unconditional value to God. Designed as an interactive, relevant retelling of the Story of God, The Thorn was initially performed to a small audience of high school students. Today, The Thorn tours across the country and features professional dancers, actors, martial artists, and aerialists from around the world.
The team behind The Thorn is also planning several new live shows and feature film projects.
