Winners Revealed: 14th Annual We Love Christian Music Awards Announcement Special Streams March 22
The 14th Annual We Love Christian Music Awards announced its winners across 13 categories, celebrating the songs and artists that defined the past year in Christian music through fan-driven voting.
The fans have spoken, and it's time to reveal the winners in the 14th Annual We Love Christian Music Awards. NewReleaseToday.com premiered a special winner announcement broadcast on Sunday, March 22, 2026, at 9PM EST / 8PM CST, streaming exclusively on YouTube.
Hosted by Rhett Walker - returning as the first repeat host in the history of the awards - the special celebrated the songs and artists that defined the past year in Christian music while unveiling the fan-voted winners across all 13 award categories.
The We Love Christian Music Awards continues to lead as one of the industry's only fan-driven awards shows across all categories of Christian music. Rather than being decided by a small panel, the winners are chosen directly by Christian music listeners around the world who stream the songs, attend the concerts, and champion their favorite artists every day.
Public voting opened earlier this year through WeLoveAwards.com, where fans were also able to explore nominee videos for each category and listen to the official awards playlist available on Spotify and Apple Music before casting their votes.
Throughout the broadcast, viewers discovered the winners in all 13 categories including Song of the Year, Country/Roots Song of the Year, Mainstream Impact Award, and more. The Mainstream Impact Award once again recognizes artists of faith, both inside Christian music and in the broader mainstream, who boldly proclaim God's message and influence culture beyond the traditional boundaries of the genre.
The announcement special featured exclusive performances from many of this year's nominees and celebrated artists, including Colton Dixon, Britt Nicole, Band Reeves, Caleb Hyles, Clark Beckham of NCS Collective, Mary-Clair, and Johnny B of Nineties Worship Night.
Highlighting the future of Christian music, the broadcast also showcased performances from several nominees in the fan-favorite Next Big Thing category, including SAPHIRE, Psalms Of David, Presence Music, and Josh Bissell.
The main sponsors for the 14th Annual We Love Christian Music Awards include Advancing Native Missions, WieRok Entertainment, and Nashville Christian Songwriters.
