Sam Stewart, a multifaceted leader with a heart devoted to Christian ministry and community outreach, has seamlessly navigated various roles over the past decade. His unique ability to guide youth through daily struggles while simultaneously combating challenges as a Christian community outreach leader, radio owner, and venue proprietor sets him apart.
In 2012, Stewart initiated "His Hop," a movement that started as a community outreach effort in a 5,000-square-foot warehouse. Over six and a half years, he organized concerts, stage plays, and Bible studies, elevating the name of Jesus Christ within the community. His Hop became a platform to host events with renowned artists in the Gospel and Christian Hip Hop (CHH) industry.
Beginning as a podcast, His Hop Radio aimed to introduce the community to artists and their music before live performances. It evolved into a BDS-reporting internet radio station and eventually became a full-fledged podcast network accessible through the His Hop Radio app and website.
Through these platforms, Stewart played a crucial role in leading many kids and young adults to discover Jesus Christ, recognize their talents, and steer clear of street troubles. His commitment to positively impacting the community culminated in 2022 with establishing the His Hop Television Network, podcast, and app. Stewart expanded its reach globally as the CEO of a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization named His Hop Nation.
Throughout his journey, Stewart's humble goal has remained constant to fulfill the vision given to him by God. His mission is to reach the youth masses through creative avenues, offering an alternative lifestyle that is more beneficial than worldly alternatives and significantly impacting the community.
Stewart's unwavering commitment includes sharing the love of the Lord and mentoring and developing artists, some of whom he encountered during his days teaching Bible studies at a rescue mission. One individual, initially homeless, experienced a positive transformation in his life through the ministry and Sam's guidance and is now happily married with a child.
His Hop Radio has received recognition on KCEP 88.1 and has been a recurring participant in Henderson and Las Vegas Metro's Safe Night Out, high schools, and other notable events. Looking ahead, His Hop Nation's mission is to collaborate with people of faith worldwide to reach every nation, spreading the message of hope and faith through creative and impactful means.
