    Welcome to the results of the 12th JesusFreakHideout.com Awards! We restructured the awards last year, 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 2015, it was eligible.)

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

Also be sure to check out the JFH Staff Picks for 2015 to see what the JFH staff chose for their favorite songs and albums of 2015. Click here...
