One of my favorite things in the world is worship music. If you’re not a Christian you probably think I’m weird and if you are a Christian chances are you think I probably am boring because it’s pretty much all I listen to.
But I absolutely love it. It’s pretty much rocking my iPod non-stop.
Before I became a Christian I didn’t really have a taste in music. I’d get a CD, enjoy it, and listen to it for about a year straight. It was pretty varied too. I listened to everything from Red Hot Chili Peppers to Linkin Park to 50 Cent, not really latching on to a particular style but more latching on to the songs.
When I began going to church I experienced an amazing thing: songs that expressed my new-found faith in an amazing way. There is really a special connection when a song speaks directly to your heart.
Now, I’ll admit there is a ton of terrible Christian music, just as there is a ton of terrible secular music, but if you find the gems it can truly be some of the most powerful stuff you ever hear.
I’ll probably start talking about this a bit more in future posts, but I wanted to set it up a bit.
Here’s a brief snapshot of who I’ve been listening to a lot recently:
Any recommendations?
it’s the only thing i listen to as well…my brother once said “you’re not one of THOSE christians, are you?” …well I love all kinds of music but when it comes down to it, my usual day is pretty much all worship…it’s so necessary!
