Why Listen?
Worship 24/7 is just different.
While we realize radio is a type of entertainment, we believe a radio station focused on Worship can foster an encounter with God that is so transformative that a listener isn’t satisfied with simply singing along to good music.
Worship 24/7 is designed to facilitate an experience with God that is so personal that He permanently changes one’s priorities and sparks the life-long process of being conformed to the image of Jesus.
Our Vision...
The vision of Worship 24/7 is to see a community of people who worship God passionately and take that experience into a broken world.
Our Mission...
The mission of Worship 24/7 is to ignite a passion for God through worship that results in a life of discipleship, evangelism, generosity and service.
What We Believe
We believe that God, who is Truth itself, has inspired the Bible. It is the only completely trustworthy, divine authority in all matters, including love, truth, redemption, morality, and proper conduct.
We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe we are commanded to love everyone. As a result, we should examine ourselves first to avoid judging others by a standard to which we do not hold ourselves.
We believe we, as Christians, are held to a higher standard of obedience to the Bible than those who do not claim to be Christians. As such, our personal and professional lives should strive to reflect and be consistent with the behaviors expected of Believers as outlined in the Bible, especially the words of Jesus.
We believe we have all sinned and fall short of God’s standard, and as such we are in need of salvation.
We believe salvation is through God’s grace alone, not in doing good deeds. This grace is now available to all people through Jesus, God’s son, who paid the penalty for our sins by dying on the cross and who was raised back to life that we might be redeemed.
We believe that God’s forgiveness extends to all those who believe in Christ’s finished work on the cross as the sole remedy for our sins.
We believe this forgiveness of our past, present, and future sins should result in compassion for others who are enslaved to sin while repenting of our own sins so that we may live lives that glorify God.
We believe that only those who place their faith in Jesus Christ are saved by faith and will spend eternity in heaven. Those who do not will be eternally separated from Him.
We believe Jesus was fully God and fully man, virgin-born, and sinless. He will personally return in power and glory.
We believe all who have trusted in Christ as savior are called to be united in the Holy Spirit.
This Statement of Faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. For purposes of doctrine, practice, policy, and discipline, the board of directors of 247 Media Ministries is the final interpretive authority on the Bible's meaning and application.
