Best Answer

Christian rock bands are usually offered the chance to tour to open for secular bands. They are paid more to do this. However, most Christian bands refuse the offer to open for secular bands. However, Skillet did not. Skillet was also signed by a secular label called Lava, that also allows them to tour with secular bands.
