If you've ever wished your radio played Skillet, Disciple, or Seventh Day Slumber back-to-back without commercial breaks, ChristianRock.Net was built for you. Founded in 1998 by Bryan Whitaker — a programmer who couldn't find the Christian rock he loved on traditional radio — this listener-funded internet station has been streaming 24/7 for over 28 years from Springfield, Missouri.^1
The network now spans six distinct stations: the flagship Christian rock channel, plus ChristianHardRock.Net for metal and heavy rock, ChristianHits.Net for today's top Christian pop-rock, ChristianPowerPraise.Net for worship with an edge, ChristianClassicRock.Net for '70s–'90s classics like Petra and WhiteHeart, and ChristianCountryGospel.Net for country and gospel.^2 All six are accessible through a single free app on iOS and Android, plus Apple CarPlay, Amazon Alexa, Roku, TuneIn, and web browsers.^3
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit, ChristianRock.Net runs entirely on listener donations — no ads, no subscriptions. The station also features weekly Top 30 and annual Top 100 charts based on listener requests, song request functionality, and a curated database of Christian rock artists and singles.^4 In 2005, it won Best Internet Radio Network at the American Christian Music Awards.^5
Why Christians Love It"This is exactly what my spirit needed. You will find here music that moves you and stirs your soul. Led by the Holy Spirit I can praise the Lord any time in the music that I like. You guys were an answer to prayer and are right on time." — iOS listener^3
"Looking for all the great Christian metal bands? Really not going to find it on Slacker or Sirius. But this is the best radio app period. No more looking for Christian artists. They are all on here and you can even request songs. It is amazing." — iOS listener^3
