The Passion Band: For the University Moment.

With sounds recorded at live arena-scale venues, Passion Band's flexible line up of the best Christian musicians, song writers and worship leaders works to inspire the spiritual awakening of 16 million university and college students around the world.

Formed in 1997 in response to Louie Giglio’s passion for the ‘student moment’ the band’s line-up includes some of the most influential Christian artists and musicians of the present day. From its HQ at Passion Church, Atlanta, the Passion Band and its memebers write, record and perform the Christian message for those critical college and university years when lives are changed and changing.

"Our heart’s desire is to glorify your name." - Isaiah 26: 8

Passion for the university moment

Louie Giglio’s dynamic Christian movement with its vibrant, influential music began in 1997 at Austin Texas. With fellow visionary, Jeff Lewis, Louie Gigilo's direct and creative ministry used live modern music and musicians to support conference scale worship events shared with thousands of college and university students. Ever growing numbers responded to the movement's call to the university moment. The huge gatherings travelled to Fort Worth, and then Memphis before putting down roots in Altanta, Georgia, going international in 2008.

Reaching out with the 268 Declaration

The Atlanta based movement isn’t just about arena-scale worship events. It’s about reaching out to the student generation and empowering them to reach out to the world with the love and power of God. Central to the Passion Band’s role and purpose is their part in bringing to reality their home church’s Bible based 268 Declaration. Right at the start of The Passion Movement’s story, the 268 Declaration was founded and built and on five statements of intent:To know God above all things.

• To want to know God above all things.
• To insire a love for local expressions of church.
• To build and work for unity among all believers.
• To celebrate Christ in the place where you live.
• To radiate the gospel fo Christ to the world.

Originally named Choice Ministries, The 268 declaration is based in Isaiah 26:8 and aims to build and inspire a 268-based generation committed to: “…show our trust in you by obeying your laws; our heart’s desire is to glorify your name.” (NLT)

sixstepsrecords - The Passion Band label

The Passion Band's record label, sixstepsrecords (yes, it’s all one word and all lowercase) gets its name from actions recorded in 2 Samuel 6:13. With David and the Israelites reained possession of the Ark of The Covenant – the physical representation of God’s presence and glory, they had to relearn its power and how to carry, honour and use it as God intended. Home to established Christian artists including Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, David Crowder*Band, Christy Nockels, Kristian Stanfill and Charlie Hall, sixsteps also nurtures new and emerging musical talent. The spiral of diminishing dots that make up the sixsteps logo represents the journey from human smallness to God’s greatness.
