  • Bio

    ........ ..Our motto:.. ...."Good News Through Good Music!"...... ..Backing it up:...... PSALMS 150........ ....Background...... ..24/7.. came about in 2005 when the new Senior Minister of Fairview Christian Church, Dr. Don Wilson, wanted to add a new musical dimension to the worship services. Don started the band, then un-named, with himself on guitar, and a rotating roster of guest vocalists and instrumentalists. The plan was to start the band, and then have it "staffed" with church members who felt the call to a music ministry. Once the band was established, Don would be able to go back to preaching "100%", and let the band find it's own course...The band is currently made up of church members who feel The Lord has called them to use their gifts for Him... ....Mission...... We feel that a mixture the best contemporary songs of praise and worship, Chrisitian rock and classic hymns with an updated feel would be the most effective vehicle to deliver the Good News about Jesus Christ. Recently, the band has begun to produce and perform original material, and is putting the finishing touches on our first CD... ....Where We Can Be Found...... We are affiliated with Fairview Christian Church (Disciples Of Christ), and perform there each Sunday at the 11:00 am worship service. .. ..Fairview Christian Church.. ..2701 Campbell Avenue.. ..Lynchburg, Virginia 24501.. ..434.845.6031.... .... ....Or We Can Find You!...... We are capable and eager to take our ministry on the road, to other churches, colleges, coffee houses, festivals, gospel sings, fairs, you name it. We are fully equipped to perform for indoor and outdoor venues. .. Since praise and worship events also actively involve the "audience" in the worship experience, we have a PC-based Power-Point system with all song lyrics that can be projected through either your projection equipment or ours. This allows the folks in attendance to sing along, out loud and have a great worshipful experience. Please e-mail or call for details and availability information... ....What's In A Name?...... The band got it's name from Don Wilson's daughter Christy. It simply means, .."Live Your Life For Christ 24/7"... Cool concept... ....Help Support Our Ministry...... Below are links to two companies that produce and sell ..24/7.. merchandise. ....All proceeds from sales of this merchandise goes directly to fund the band's ministry. We receive no funding from the church and rely on sales of merchandise, sponsorships and donations.....Please feel free to browse!.. ........ .. .. .. .. .. .. ........make custom gifts.. at ..Zazzle.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

  • Sounds Like

    When covering other artist's tunes, we generally keep it fairly true to their version, but we tend to put our own "sound" to it, as most bands do when covering other folks... As for our original material - you can check our .."Influences".. section out, and see the rather wide range of musical style preferences we all draw upon when writing music.

  • D.O.c. Jesus lives n

    A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you that every idle word men may speak,they will give account of it in the day of judgment For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned. Mathew 12:35-37



    please think of every thing you do or say before you do it to see if its worth your soul burning in the pit of fire in the end or will it bring youthe happiness n joy your looking fore God bless you all in Jesus name
