Chad Steven

**BIO**: Chad Holmes a.k.a. Chad Steven is a Holy Hip-Hop artist from Virginia. Nine years ago two God inspired emcees Chad Holmes a.k.a. Mid-Way and Kevin Holmes a.k.a. Red Storm started a Holy Hip-Hop Ministry called "Bonded By Blood". In 2002 they signed a contract with CMC Records to promote their music. In 2003 they were invited to Nashville, TN where they won the Entertainer's Indi-Association Top Band of 2003 award. Later that same year, Chad was invited to appear and perform on a WHSV TV3 News show. Things were going great for the group when to the surprise of many Kevin decided it wasn't what God wanted him to do any longer. Some 2 years later Chad decided to continue alone with the ministry and released a bootlegs CD with the groups album "Enter Submission" as well as 3 new solo recordings. He dropped the stage name "Mid-Way" and used his real name "Chad Steven". All in all Chad Steven is excited about these accomplishments but would rather gain further opportunities in his music ministry. Serving Christ is my main objective and goal, it's what I strive for because of His excellence.
**MISSION STATEMENT** I believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God and accept by faith it's truth. I also believe in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ (Mt. 1:18-25), that He is God manifest in the flesh (Heb. 1:1-9), by His sinless life (Heb. 9:14), His death on the cross (Lk. 23:33-46), His bodily resurrection from the grave (Lk. 24:1-6), and His ascension to the right hand of God (Lk. 24:49-53). Salvation is a sovereign gift of God whereby, through an immediate miracle of the regeneration of life, He grants faith and repentance to one thus enabling him to believe (Eph. 2:1-5, 8-9, 2 Tim. 2:24-26). Those who reject Christ as Lord and Savior will spend eternity in Hell with Satan and His angels (Matt. 25:41, Rev. 20:11-15). Justification comes by faith alone (Rom. 1:17, Rom. 3:21-31). It's the mission of Chad Steven to simply provide a ministry that will speak life and be grounded on the Word of God. To uplift, praise, and worship Jesus Christ forever and to give others the opportunity to do the same.
