Houston, TX – October 1, 2025 – Hope Media Group (HMG) is pleased to announce it has closed on Worship 24/7, which combines two ministries united by a shared mission to love Jesus, serve others, and spread hope. In a related move, Worship 24/7 President and General Manager David Harms has joined Hope Media Group as Pastor of Discipleship, further strengthening the organization’s commitment to spiritual growth and engagement.

In this new role, Harms will focus on fostering discipleship opportunities across Hope Media Group’s platforms and expanding reach and deeper connections with audiences through biblical content and prayer initiatives.

“We are grateful for David’s heart for ministry and his deep passion to see people grow as followers of Jesus. His leadership, humility, and vision make this transition a natural fit, and we are eager to see how God will work through his role as Pastor of Discipleship. David’s presence strengthens Hope Media Group’s commitment to intentionally guiding audiences on their spiritual journey.” — Joe Paulo, CEO, Hope Media Group

David Harms added, “For the last few years, I have been desiring to lead people to a deeper relationship with God. That desire was one of the driving motivations behind launching Worship 24/7 just over 6 years ago. Hope Media Group’s mission is to Love Jesus, Serve Others and Spread Hope … living out that mission is discipleship, and this position seems like a natural next step to doing what the Lord has put on my heart.”
