Christian Music Growth
No doubt you've noticed the growth of Christian music yourself, with profiles of Christian music artists in media such at the New York Times, Forbes, Time Magazine and The Wall Street Journal becoming commonplace.  Plus the music has further been pushed into the general marketplace with the presence of national companies like EMI, Zomba, and Warner Bros. operating Christian music record labels.

The Christian music genre continues to be a strong performer, being one of the few genres to actually show a 2006 calendar year sales increase, climbing 3.5% to almost 45 million units sold.  This comes after a skyrocket increase of 50% in the last half of the last decade (1/13/00 USA Today).  And it's music that's no longer hidden in the confines of the church.  In fact, in 2006, 64% of all Christian music sales were made through general market retailers like Target and Walmart, up from 34% in 1999.

HUGE AUDIENCE

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE LOYALTY

Howard Stern, Rush Limbaugh, Laura Schlesinger, and Sean Hannity are known to have large radio audiences.  But Christian radio programming reaches millions more listeners than any of those highly rated shows.  According to survey results from Barna Research Group, 46 out of every 100 adults listen to some Christian radio programming during the course of a typical month and 16 out of every 100 listen at least daily.

And just who are these listeners?
- Nearly 1/3 of those claiming not to be "born again Christians" tune in at least monthly and nearly 1/4 of all "unchurched" Americans listen in any given month.

- Among all of the born again adults in the U.S., three-fourths (75%) listen in a typical month.  (Barna Research Online 3/14/05)
  

Christian-formatted stations find their listeners to be perhaps the most loyal in all of radio.  Christian music programming reflects the lifestyle and core values held dear by its listening audience.  The format isn't just about entertainment.  It goes deeper than that.  It's about a Lifestyle.  This gives Christian formats something that cannot be obtained through any advertisement on any other radio format - CREDIBILITY!
