MUSIC WITH A MISSION
USING MUSIC AS A TOOL TO UNITE
Heart of the City, since 1996, has been bringing a message, model and experience of multi-ethnic worship and Biblical unity to thousands of people through the live performances and many recordings of the multi-ethnic, multi-denominational and multi-generational Heart of the City Worship Band.
In a time when divisions are increasing and becoming more entrenched, the need is great in both large and small ways to build bridges in the name of Jesus. Their Mission is “To bring a message, model and experience of multi-ethnic worship and Biblical unity to Christians, and the Gospel to those who are not Christians yet.”
Through the 11 different ethnicities represented in the Heart of the City Worship Band, along with the generational and denominational diversity amongst them, they seek to model that unity in their music, incorporating styles such as Native American, East Indian, Gospel, Urban Contemporary, Reggae, Salsa, Bossa Nova and others.
Now, since 2018, they are continuing this mission through hosting stylistically and ethnically diverse concerts at the Heart of the City Music Factory in Anoka, Minnesota.

New Album Released!
We're so excited that finally, after working on it for about a year and a half, we have a new Native American outreach album just released entitled “A New Kind of Warrior”! This project features 14 new original songs and one classic ("We Are One in the Spirit") as well as the stories of 7 Native Americans and how they came to be followers of Jesus. The full band songs are exciting and intense, the instrumental songs featuring Native American flute are beautiful and moving, and these 7 stories are very honest and powerful! Like our "We Speak Life" CD, we will be selling this CD, but we mostly plan to give away thousands of these to Native Americans throughout the U.S. and Canada through our network of Native American friends and ministries.
You can now hear clips of the songs, order the CD or download it at the link below! We will have the album on streaming platforms within about a month too. To watch the 7 Native Americans' stories on YouTube click here or the link below.
