Let's encourage people around the world
by sharing Scripture song videos.

The challenge is for you to make videos of 28 New Hope Music songs.
You can either use our suggested songs or
substitute one or more of the alternate choices.

Because there are 4 sides of a solid foundation,
we include 7 songs in each section.


Be creative !!

- use solos, large and small groups.
- include people of all ages and backgrounds.
- highlight your beautiful country, wildlife and culture.
-add harmonies, hand motions, dance movements, costumes...
- in each video, sing in your local language(s), English or both !
- sing a cappella, along with our recordings or play various instruments.
- use various locations (classrooms, churches, mountains, villages, beaches, traveling...)
 

What to do...

** Learn the songs by watching our videos 
** Work hard to use our original melody & lyrics (all verses)
** Make videos for 7 of the songs in Section 1 (Come)
** Post them together on our Foundations Of Faith" Facebook page

When you are ready, move on
to the next challenge until all 4 sides are completed.

Each time you submit 7 videos,
we'll move you up to the next level
on our "Foundations of Faith" web page.
 

Together, we can encourage many people around the world !!

 

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but
you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,
built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure,
being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.
In Him you also are being built together into a
dwelling place for God by the Spirit.  (Ephesians 2:19-22, ESV)

Everyone who comes to me and hears my words and does them,
I will show you what he is like:
he is like a man building a house,
who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock
.
And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house
and could not shake it, because it had been well built.  (Luke 6:47-48)
