Christian Music?
At our church we have a Christian Rock Band, which is AWESOME!
We sing loads of different things, and can do traditional hymns as well as more modernistic songs :-)
We take a lot of inspiration (or you could actually say we "copy") Delirious.. their music is just awesome :-)
What music do you guys listen to?? Do you find it helps when you're going through stressful times, etc?

Apparently As I Lay Dying are considered Christian Metalcore...
Interestingly, I never knew they were. Used to listen to them semi-occasionally but then discovered grindcore
NB: I'm not actually a christian, AILD just make me feel almost nostalgic.

I really like a lot of the American bands at the moment - Jesus culture and Israel Houghton for worship music, relient k, kutless, Tobymac and group 1 crew for other genres. Although that might be more to do with all my favourite British bands splitting up over the last year or two (yfriday, thebandwithnoname, delirious? etc).
I find listening to a soul survivor/spring harvest album really helps before an exam though

I listen to Underoath, that's about it. I'm not a Christian myself but I like the honesty and positivity in their lyrics.

I agree Christian rock music is awesome. I don't like the normal rock music /heavy metal though.
The Church I go to has a black African pastor and a lot of black people attend it so we have a lot of dancing,role-playing and loads of gospel music. its great. I have been a member of this church for about 10 years now.
I also like the UK top 40 hits, Rap, some soul music, Michael Jackson, Anything really except heavy metal trash
Yes it does help to relieve stress

One of the best songs ever.
Despite my beliefs, this song always gets me going.
Especially with the bass turned up.
Is Christian rock, rap, pop etc simply not taken from the "worldly" - that is, influenced by "Satan".
Could many of you be in danger of hypocrisy and falling under the influence of "Satan" in "Christian" music??
P.S. I am not Christian, but it does amuse me how many "Christians" are so of the world.

By that reasoning, could we be in danger of hypocrisy and falling under the influence of "Satan" by eating out of a TV dinner? Sure, why not.

I swear your post makes no sense?
If the only reason that you listen to a band is due to that they're christian then you like them for the wrong reasons. Anyway, I think Skillet comes into this category? They're pretty good.

By watching television itself, you are already under the influence of "Satan", as "Satan" is the "current ruler of this world", no?
I love the usual artists, like Matt Redman, Tim Hughes, Hillsong... think my favourite Christian song has got to be The Stand. Also love Delirious, saw them a few years ago before they broke up, and they were incredible!

Who cares about watching television, when your reasoning tells us that merely eating out of a TV dinner is enough to corrupt us under his influence.

It makes perfect sense.
When rock first began to rear its head, the Christian church were so against it and called it evil and devilish - something not hard to believe then.
Now, it is incorporated into the Christian tradition too - hence Christian rock, pop etc - just because the lyrics speak of "God", does not necessarily mean it is "good"...
