Welcome to Joe Hubbard Ministries

About JHM

I strive through God’s strength to present Christian music concerts, which are designed to encourage personal and corporate Biblical worship, and share the truth of scripture through music, which focuses on the holiness of God, and His Son, Jesus Christ.

My concerts are certainly intended to be enjoyable, but my purpose is not to be an entertainer and simply “tickle” your ears (2 Timothy 4: 3 – 4). My music has a much greater eternal purpose (2 Timothy 4: 5; John 14: 1 – 10). No smoke machines, no light show, no dancing bears, just beautiful music focusing on the One who paid a debt He didn’t owe.

Musical styles range from classical congregational sing-alongs to smooth jazz original arrangements.

So, how does JHM view what Biblical worship is you might ask? It’s a great question, and a very important one. A brief answer I like is summarized by Noah Webster in his 1828 Dictionary of the American Language: “To adore; to pay divine honors to; to reverence with supreme respect and veneration.” I might also add that worship is the greatest privilege of our Christian lives. Worship is also something Christians should reserve for God alone. We as people all treasure or “worship” something, but God desires that we as Christians should worship Him alone! (Matthew 6:21). I love this topic, and I’d welcome the opportunity to discuss it much more with you personally!

My concerts are multi-generational in nature, and are purposely designed to give God glory and honor. Concerts are grounded in the three-fold pyramid of (1) scripture, (2) prayer, and (3) music.

By God’s grace, Joe was blessed to grow up in a Christian home, where he personally trusted Christ as his Savior as a young teenager. I believe that the Word of God created faith in my soul (“faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” – Romans 10:17). Since becoming a Christian, my life has probably been much like yours, if you are a Christian. Days of walking closely and sensing God’s presence, but also days of walking contrary to God’s revealed will. When I sin, the Holy Spirit convicts me of my sin, and reminds me of the all-sufficient grace of Christ! To quote John Piper, “I am desperately dependent on grace and happy about it.”

Following high school, Joe attended Central Methodist University, Fayette, Missouri where he received a Bachelor of Music Education degree. Joe also received his Master of Arts degree in music from The Conservatory of Music and Dance at the University of Missouri – Kansas City. Joe is a former member of “THE PRESIDENT’S OWN” United States Marine Band in Washington, D.C., which is responsible for musical support of the White House and affairs dictated via the President of the United States and the Commandant of the Marine Corps. Joe has taught music in Kansas, Missouri, Louisiana, and Virginia. He maintains professional memberships in the International Clarinet Society, the North American Saxophone Alliance, and the National Association for Music Education.

The Lord led Joe to begin this concert music ministry in February, 1998. Since then, Joe has shared with audiences across the United States his musical versatility ranging from classical to inspirational jazz… all done to communicate the message of Jesus Christ. Joe plays the alto, soprano, tenor saxophone, and the clarinet. Click here for JHM Beliefs.
