If you want Christian rock without commercial breaks, ChristianRock.Net is the listener-funded internet station Bryan Whitaker built in 1998 from Springfield, Missouri, after local radio would not play Petra, Stryper, and the rest of the catalog he loved.^1 He still runs the ministry today and serves as a drummer and audio engineer at his local church.^1
The network is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 43-1986825) whose mission is to glorify God by sharing His love through music with lyrics you can trust.^1 Six stations stream around the clock: Rock, Hits, Power Praise, Classic Rock, Country Gospel (added in 2024), and Hard Rock.^1 You can listen in a browser, in the free iOS and Android apps — including CarPlay and Android Auto — and on Alexa, Roku, and TuneIn.^2 Apple TV is still listed as coming.^1
There are no ads and no subscription; the station stays on the air through donations.^1 Listeners can request songs, and the site keeps weekly Top 30 and annual Top 100 charts plus an artist and singles database.^3 In 2005 it was named Best Internet Radio Network at the American Christian Music Awards.^3
