About 2026 THEME
Across many parts of Northern Nigeria, Christian communities have endured enormous hardship. Many families have experienced violence, displacement, the destruction of churches and communities, and the painful loss of loved ones. Yet, in the midst of these challenges, one thing has remained constant: the Gospel has not been silenced.
Our churches continue to worship. Our choirs continue to sing. Our pastors continue to preach. Our filmmakers continue to tell stories of redemption. Our spoken word artists continue to proclaim hope. Our dancers continue to minister. Our creative community continues to lift the name of Jesus.
It is from this reality that the theme for the 2026 JOGAMA–GREEN AWARDS is born.
“A Sound That Cannot Be Silenced:
Rooted in Faith, Rising in Influence.”
This is not merely a slogan. It is a declaration. It is a declaration that no amount of persecution can silence the message of Jesus Christ. It is a declaration that while circumstances may seek to discourage us, our faith remains firmly rooted in Christ. It is a declaration that the Gospel will continue to rise above fear, above hatred, above violence, and above every force that seeks to suppress it.
As gospel creatives, our assignment is greater than producing good music or beautiful performances. We are custodians of a message that transforms lives. Every song, every film, every dance, every design, every spoken word piece, and every creative expression should point people to Christ and strengthen His Church.
This year’s theme also challenges us to rise in influence, not for personal fame, but for Kingdom impact. The world needs authentic Christian voices now more than ever, voices that speak truth with love, excellence with humility, and creativity with purpose.
