Newsboys Earn First Platinum Single with God's Not Dead

Newsboys’ anthem, “God’s Not Dead (Like A Lion),” has been certified Platinum by the RIAA. Signifying single sales in excess of 1 million units, the award marks a career milestone for the Grammy-nominated group and is one of the first Platinum single certifications in Christian music this year.  

Written by Daniel Bashta, “God’s Not Dead”  helped inspire the blockbuster Pure Flix film of the same name. Both the God’s Not Dead album and single earned RIAA Gold certifications last year.

Newsboys have sold more than 8 million units, amassing eight Gold certifications, 33 #1 radio hits, four Grammy nominations.
