History

Andy Chrisman, Mark Harris, Marty Magehee, and Kirk Sullivan originally met when they sang together in Truth, a Contemporary Christian vocal group founded in the late 1960's and directed by Roger Breland until the group disbanded in 2001. Truth had a rotating roster of four male and four female vocalists, many who went on to form singing groups of their own or record solo albums, such as Alicia Williams-Garcia, Newsong, Russ Lee, Point of Grace, and Jason Breland, Roger's middle son. After a representative from Benson Records attended several Truth concerts in which Andy, Mark, Marty, and Kirk performed, Benson approached the quartet saying that they wanted to use the guys to create a new male 4-member vocal group under the Benson label. "Where There is Faith", their first single, stayed at #1 on the charts for eight weeks, two months before 4Him left Truth. Releasing their self-titled debut in 1990, they blended the traditions of Christian music’s past, with modern pop production and practical lyrics.

In 1996, with the release of The Message, 4Him changed their overall sound in an effort to keep pushing the creative limits of the group. The guys replaced the over-the-top orchestrations and choral vocal arrangements with a stripped down, acoustic band approach where one of the guys would sing lead and the other three would sing backing vocals. On 1998’s Obvious, each member took more ownership of their music – becoming more involved in the production and songwriting aspects.

By 2004, all four reevaluated the future of the ministry of 4Him. After close to fifteen years of ministry, the members of 4Him decided to embark on solo careers.^[1] On September 23, 2006, 4Him performed their final concert at Cottage Hill Baptist Church in Mobile, AL, the city where 4Him’s 16 year journey first started. At that concert, various individuals (including family members, record producers, management, and Truth founder Roger Breland) were recognized for their contributions to 4Him’s ministry. is the 266th day of the year (267th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
