About Me

THIS SITE IS FUN BY A TRULY DEDICATED FAN. NOT BY 4HIM. THANKS FOR SUPPORTING 4HIM. this layout is from whateverlife.com!THIS PAGE IS NOT RUN BY 4HIM! BUT BY A TRULY DEDICATED FAN! THIS PAGE IS TO DEDICATE TO 4HIM FOR THEIR COMMITMENT OF 16 YEARS TOGETHER.In the business of music, 15 years might as well be a lifetime; however, for four ordinary guys who couldnt imagine anything better than singing about Jesus, the past 15 years have been more like a dream come to life. 4HIM has been about sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ through the powerful, incomparable medium of music since their beginnings singing with the well-known ensemble group, Truth.From the four ordinary guys who formed while sitting down at McDonalds to explore the idea of forming a four-man pop-gospel group, 4HIM presents ENCOREFOR FUTURE GENERATIONS, their final project as 4HIM, a collection of career favorites, as well as a solo song from each member.We couldnt think of a better way to write the closing chapter to our story than to sing our way out, 4HIM states, We hope you hear our hearts in ENCORE and know how blessed weve been to be a part of your lives.Since their formation in 1989, their harmonic convergencethe likes of which hadnt been heard in Christian music since the Imperials took audiences by storm in the late 1970sblended the best of tradition from past decades in Christian music with modern pop sensibilities and no-holds-barred, real life lyrics. Christian radio got it right of the box with the groups first No. 1 single, Where There Is Faith, and audiences began to sit up and take notice of the fresh-faced foursome from down south.4HIM managed to transcend any of those potential pratfalls, continuing to make music that not only met the needs of listeners but pushed the creative envelope as the mainstream pop music scene evolved into something a little less slick, less produced.By the time 4HIMs best of album released in 2004, all four men were contemplating where do we go from here? Not because they were drifting apart or because the opportunities were few and far between. No, call it sixth sense, the sense of discovery, of beginning to understand that there could be life beyond the ministry theyd devoted the biggest part of their adult lives to.After much prayer, Andy Chrisman decided to pursue a lifelong passion as worship leader at a local church in Celebration, Florida. Mark Harris had begun writing new songs for a solo project. Marty and Kirk were also busy writing and doing production work on their own.Each one, in his own time, began to feel the excitement of seeing new roads winding out before them. They began, one by one, to sense God saying I am doing a new thing in you. And so, with gratitude for all God has done over the past 15 years, they began to write the closing chapter in the story of 4HIM.Taking a walk down memory lane, 4HIM recorded new versions of their biggest hits on the farewell project. Once again their longtime producer Michael Omartian produced the project, which features nine favorite 4HIM songs, in addition to a medley and one new track, Unity (We Stand), featuring guest vocalists Point of Grace and Jeromy Deibler of FFH. Four bonus solo songs from each band member will also be included.This project will hopefully capture the spirit of the songs and where we are now in 2005 musically, spiritually and thematically it will be a trip down memory lane with a new twist, Mark Harris explains. We wanted to do this last project as a gift to our loyal fansto commemorate all the years of faithful support we have received from them.Throughout their time together, 4HIM has received much acclaim for their 11 hit albums including an RIAA Gold certified album (The Basics of Life), 24 No. 1 radio singles, eight Dove Awards including three Group of the Year, and a Grammy Award nomination as well as Alabamas Music Hall of Fame for The Governors Achievement Award. In addition to their numerous tours across the nation, the group has also been featured performers with the Billy Graham and Louis Palau crusades.AWARDS AND NOMINATIONS 2003 Dove Award nomination Inspirational Recorded Song of the Year 1998 Dove Award - Group of the Year Dove Award - Inspirational Song of the Year for Center of the Mark 1998 WOW!
