    Welcome to the results of the 11th JesusFreakHideout.com Awards! We restructured the awards for 2015, throwing out the huge ballots to offer a ballot that was picked by the JFH staff (we did our own little voting process) and we gave the readers THEIR chance to weigh in. (If it was released in 2014, it was eligible.)

Congratulations to all of the winners and the runner-ups! Thank you to all who voted!
