MUSIC & WORSHIP 2025
Shine was founded in 2014 by School of Music Dean Dr. Stephen Müller and is a contemporary a cappella group of 13 students who inspire and encourage listeners with their beautiful harmony and powerful lyrics. With unique and fresh vocal arrangements, this team utilizes Christian music, old and new, to present the Gospel.
In 2018, Shine was invited to sing as part of The 8th Annual Christmas in New York at Carnegie Hall with Travis Cottrell and Denver and the Mile High Orchestra. In addition to on campus performances, Shine has been featured at Brooklyn Tabernacle in Brooklyn, NY and has participated in National Day of Prayer events in Washington, D.C.
Shine made their debut appearance for the 2024 CMDA National Convention at Ridgecrest in North Carolina and they are coming back by popular demand.
