History

Originally founded as a direct-to-consumer music club in 1987, in 2002 Integrity changed its corporate identity from Integrity Music to Integrity Media to better reflect its growth and development. That same year, Integrity purchased the Nashville-based label INO Records, home to artists MercyMe, SONICFLOOd, Darlene Zschech, Sara Groves and The Afters among others. This added greatly to Integrity’s artist roster which already included notables Don Moen, Hillsong Music, Paul Baloche and the GRAMMY Award-winning Israel and New Breed.

Together, Integrity Music and INO Records are the top independent labels in the Christian music marketplace. Their strong retail presence is due to distribution into both the Christian (Provident-Integrity Distribution) and mainstream (Columbia/Sony-BMG Distribution) marketplaces.[citation needed]

In addition to a retail focus, Integrity maintains its Direct Response division that provides the same music, film and digital products via direct mail and Internet sales. Integrity also offers a direct mail club that provides greeting cards created in partnership with DaySpring/HallMark.
