Over 1,000 Followers On Twitter
Today we have reached over 1,000 followers on Twitter. Which is pretty remarkable, seeming we started using twitter a month or two ago to it’s full potential. We believe Twitter is just another tool we can use to make it that much easier and more convenient for you get the latest news on Artists/Bands, The Website, Podcast’s, Album Reviews and more. So the tweets shall continue, and you should follow if you haven’t yet already.
Habitat For Humanity Benefit Concert Recap
Almost a month ago we hosted a benefit concert for Habitat For Humanity. We’d first like to start out by thanking all of you who attended. We had a very successful night with raising over $200 for Habitat For Humanity and having around 80 people show up for the event. The money raised is going to help the local Evergreen Habitat For Humanity, so it is making a difference in the community where NW Christian Music is based and where the concert was hosted at. Below you will find a highlight video from the event. Enjoy…
Happy Easter
Today is Easter Sunday, the celebration of the Resurrection of Christ from the dead. We’d like to express the real meaning of this day. Jesus Christ died on The Cross for our sins, and on the third day He rose again. This is why we celebrate Easter. He did this out of sacrifice so that we may enter into a relationship with Him and be forgiven for our sins.
“Then he said to them all: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it.”- Luke 9:23-24
If any of you have any questions about having a relationship with God, I challenge and pray that you would contact me at justen@nwchristianmusic.com I would love to link faith with you, and help answer your questions.
Have a blessed Easter with family and friends. Another blog post with a recap from the Habitat For Humanity concert, is on its way soon.
Redesigned Music Video Section
We have given the Music Video section of Northwest Christian Music a new look and feel to it. We felt like the old one didn’t leave us with much room to expand.
The new section is broken up by Artists so you don’t have to scroll through a whole list of videos to find what you are looking for. Now you can simply just click on an Artist’s name and go right to their videos. This will be much easier on us as we start adding more and more music videos, as well as be less confusing for you.
You’ll also find the “Latest Music Video” on the side of the page, much like the front of the site. So every time we add a video, it’ll show up their first, as well as on the Artist’s Music Video pages.
Soon we’ll also be re-doing our navigation bar, so you can find the Music Video’s easier rather than clicking on Media.
Hope you like this feature…
Have a great day,
Justen Martian

No More Delay On Artist News & Updates On Frontpage
As of a couple of weeks ago, we have fixed the glitch that was not showing the latest News Item on the main page. It was caching an older post for an hour after a new one was posted. We moved to a new method of delivering the latest post. This new method has no delay and shows the post the second it goes live. Thought I’d fill you in on that.
As always you can get the latest news on the front page or visitng the News Page directly. You can also subscirbe via an RSS Feed. We also deliver the latest news if you are following us on Twitter.
Thanks for browsing the website,

Officially A Non-Profit Organization
Opened the mail today, and found the letter we have been waiting for awhile. It was the letter from the Washington Secretary of State Office saying that “Northwest Christian Music” is now Officially A Non-Profit Organization. Just thought we’d update you on that.
More new things are on their way!
New Way To Submit Artist News & Updates
Submitting news has never been easier for artists. We have narrowed it down to a single form you have to fill out and submit. Very few people were emailing us news, so we had to find a better way to get it submitted.
