do you think christian rock is demeaning to the religion? i think it is a great way to reach out to the youth today by relating to them in their world. it also gives the punkers an insight that u can dress like a rebell but still be christian. the groups also show the world that they are not ashamed of their religion.

AMEN. I am waaaaaay int all the Christian goth, metal, hardcore [etc] music. Ask anyone. I think it's totally awesome. Not just b/c the tunes...but the out reach and the lyrics. It's amazing.

I'm all for Christian rock. actually some hymns were secular songs that they made religious. I believe that it's all about speaking to the dominant culture in a way in which they will understand.
UnveiledShadow
You said it.

Music is a talent that God gave to man, and I think whatever way we express that talent from Gospel to Rock, as long as it pleases God, then it is great. smile.gif

I like Christian Rock, my favorite band is Third Day. smile.gif

Now, if a person wanted to nitpick
(and I always do)
they might be compelled to mention Third Day is more
"worship music" than "Christian rock". rolleyes.gif

... if a person wanted to nitpick. wink.gif


Anyway, I've always been a big Skillet fan
and a big Switchfoot fan, myself. I've tried the
heavy stuff like Beanbag and all that, but I
can't really get into that. Call me an old fuddyduddy,
but I can't make out a word they're screamn'.

Third Day is not "worship music". rolleyes.gif They have a couple of worship albums out and some worship songs on each of their cds but they are definately rock! Ex. Their song Rock Star on their new album??

I am going to their concert next weekend!

Hi Andrew. Which contemporary christian groups do you like in particular?

I like Third Day and I'm sorry but as far as I have heard they are definitely a rock band - maybe not heavy rock but still rock. I like delirious too. And I like listening to Jars of Clay, although I'm going to have to wait a while for their new CD to come out over here!

I like Rich Mullins, Steve Green, Trading My Sorrows (don't know the artist), Shne Jesus Shine (don't know the artist either), Breathe (may know the artist), stuff like that. biggrin.gif
