Hope Media Group Expands with the Addition of Worship 24/7

Hope Media Group (HMG), a Christian organization passionate about  impacting lives through uplifting content and experiences, and Worship 24/7, a Christian radio network  dedicated to worship music, have announced a plan to legally unite in a transaction that is expected to  close in early Fall 2025 following FCC approval. 

Based in Portland, Oregon, Worship 24/7 has built a global audience through a unique format of around the-clock worship music that inspires spiritual intimacy. This move aligns with HMG’s mission to  connect people more deeply to God through media and will expand its portfolio of audio content and  digital offerings. 

The two ministries began partnering in 2023 with Hope Media Group leasing it’s Portland station to  Worship 24/7, and expanded last year with Worship 24/7 also airing on additional HMG HD channels and  translators in Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, West Palm Beach, and Evansville, IN. These outlets expanded  on Worship 24/7’s existing stations in Tacoma, Spokane, Central Oregon, Amarillo, Texas, and smaller  markets in Iowa and Georgia. 

Hope Media Group CEO Joe Paulo commented, “We’ve seen firsthand how Worship 24/7 fills a hunger  for authentic worship in so many people, igniting a deeper passion for God. Combining our ministry  efforts makes perfect sense and is an exciting step forward for our Hope Media Group mission. With the  powerful atmosphere Worship 24/7 creates daily for its audiences, I know that together we’ll amplify our  impact and expand in ways that wouldn’t be possible alone. When we began our partnership, we hoped  this is where God would lead it. Now He has, and I could not be more enthusiastic about it.” 

David Harms, founder and President of Worship 24/7, added, “Six years ago, Worship 24/7 was an idea  in a PowerPoint presentation, and by God’s grace it has grown to 15 FM signals and online listenership  in more than 215 countries and territories. Our partnership with Hope Media Group over the last two  years has been strong already, and now by coming into the HMG family, Worship 24/7 can keep pace with  the rapidly changing media landscape and more effectively spread the hope of Jesus to a world  desperately in need of a Savior.” 

Under Hope Media Group, Worship 24/7’s terrestrial coverage will expand to additional HMG HD  channels in New York, Miami, Denver, and Nashville. It will also complement a growing portfolio of  streaming channels HMG offers via KSBJ and WayFM mobile apps. You can learn more about Worship 24/7 right HERE.
