Posted 4 months ago - Jul 15, 2024

HOUSTON, TX – July 15, 2024 – Hope Media Group (HMG) and Worship 24/7 are pleased to announce the expansion of their strategic partnership. The Portland, OR-based radio and digital ministry dedicated to worship music will begin airing Worship 24/7 on Houston’s KSBJ-HD2 and the HMG-owned local translator at 91.3, as well as WJWA-HD4 in Evansville, IN and HMG’s translator there at 100.1, effective immediately.

The partnership began in October 2023 when Hope Media Group began airing Worship 24/7’s format via a Local Marketing Agreement on 96.3FM (KKWA) in Portland.  The initial collaboration revealed a shared commitment to glorifying God and expanding His Kingdom, leading both organizations to explore further opportunities to work together. The result allows Worship 24/7 to also provide its programming to select Hope Media Group HD channels and available translators.

Joe Paulo, CEO and President of Hope Media Group, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: “We have the technology and capability to further pursue our mission of engaging people to love Jesus, serve others, and spread Hope. Our strategic relationship with Worship 24/7 allows us to serve more people today and prepare for the future as HD radios become more prevalent.”

 Worship 24/7 President and General Manager, David Harms added, “We love collaborating with Hope Media Group, and it’s exciting to see how quickly God is expanding the reach of Worship 24/7 through this partnership.  We will continue to seek any and every opportunity that will serve to ignite a listener’s passion for God through worship.”
