New Hope Music began in 1991. Since then, hundreds of our songs have been
translated into 28 languages, touching
millions of people in 230 countries.
Simply stated, our mission is...
"To provide free Scripture-based songs that will encourage, strengthen and equip many people in every nation of the world."
1 Corinthians 3:4-9 is one
of the foundational
Bible passages of New Hope Music.
"I (Paul) planted the seed, Apollos watered it,
but God has been making it grow."
We have been given a small role in the
Kingdom,
to provide free Scripture-based praise and
worship choruses. Others are being
called to share them around the world.
Together, we will watch God bear fruit, for His glory.
To put it another way, the Body of Christ
is strengthened
"as each member does his/her part" (Ephesians 4:15-16)
Let me introduce you to some very special people. There are hundreds of others who have arranged, sung, shared, translated & recorded the songs of New Hope Music over the years...
To each of you, and the many who will follow...
