Thanks from Koiné

Great thanks are in order to everyone who attended Concert in the Quad and helped to make this event possible. Koiné would like to extend their gratitude to Wisconsin Lutheran College for hosting and helping us to promote this event.

While we are truly blessed to see an outpouring of support for our ministry and thankful to have open hearts and ears ready to listen to God's word as we tour around the country, it's a great feeling to experience that love and support right in your own backyard.

Once again, thanks to all who attended, and be sure to let us know your thoughts and opinions so we can be sure to make the next event even better!

Common language. Common people.
Extraordinary message.


That's what Koiné was in the 4th and 5th century in then Macedonia, the common language of the people. It's a Greek term, and was the language the New Testament was written in.

Today, Koiné is again a voice for the common people, and again with extraordinary message. Koiné - the church band, is a Christian band, bringing a new vibrant sound and feel to traditional Lutheran and Christian songs.

Founded on the banks of the Milwaukee River on Milwaukee's near North Side, Koiné brings a new and needed voice to the arena of Christian music.

Thanks for stopping by. Check out the rest of the site, and we welcome you to our upcoming shows, to hear a common message for all people: Jesus Christ is Savior.

God Bless - Koiné
