in word and song.
The Evangels are a gospel ministry rooted in Houston, carrying forty years of preaching, teaching, and singing into homes and churches everywhere.
Our story
Four decades of ministry, one message
The Evangels began in 1984 in Houston, Texas, as a gospel organization dedicated to lifting up Jesus Christ in word and song. What started as a small circle of believers singing and teaching together has carried on for forty years, reaching congregations and homes through recordings, writing, and fellowship.
The ministry's work has always rested on two pillars: the spoken and written word, and the sung word — articles on faith and character alongside recordings that trace back to 1984. Both are shared here for anyone walking the same road.
The Beatitudes
A reading on Christ's teaching from the Sermon on the Mount — the newest addition to the Evangels' collection of writings.

Quotes
A few words the Evangels return to
"Satan does not care how spiritual your intentions may be, as long as they are focused on tomorrow."
"Which is better — to light one candle, or curse the darkness?"
"I do not need to understand the rules of life. I do need to know what they are and how they affect me. They do not necessarily have to make sense."
