Christian Independent Alliance
The CIAlliance is an organization dedicated to Christian musicians, singers, bands, songwriters and others, who are impacting people with their music and message worldwide. We believe as the Christian music industry changes, more and more Christian musicians will remain independent, accomplishing their missions without the existing music industry. We believe the time is right to provide an organization whose purpose is to provide resources independents need to fulfill their unique callings. Go to the CIAlliance website for more info.

Harvest Sound
The word of God tells us “When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of the LORD will lift up a standard against him.” (Isa. 59:19) For decades now the demonic realm has used the popular arts and the media to flood the earth with insidious messages. The results … billions of souls worldwide have been deceived and polluted and are held in great bondage due to the relentless media onslaught that our society is currently staggering under. A landslide of accelerated moral decline has been fueled by the music and the media of our day. But right in the midst of this media madness God is raising up His pure standard. God desires to use the gifts of music and creativity that he has invested in His people to fill the nations with the greatest creative miracles of all…the salvation and sanctification of mankind… the Harvest!
