Ok, so people can only post Christian testimony and people can only make positive comments on it....
Sorry, that fails to be inclusive.

Not by me.
You and I have talked privately and on the boards several times Shaky.
If you've something to share, go ahead.
I won't criticize it.
You may or may not show me the same courtesy, but it won't matter.
I've tons of testimonies to share, and worship songs that have inspired me. 🙂

Don't have either, just atheism.
A great song:
This sounds like a service.Mass or whatever it is called.My sister when she was about four took a bottle of pills and we rush to her to the hospital and the doctor said she died for a few mins.
When she came back she said she been to heaven and that God told her that it was not her time yet and that she has to take care of the two youngest.
It was just me and her at the time and my youngest brother and sister was not born yet.Pretty cool.Thought I would share that.jm

That was a low blow. 🙁 I only protest when I believe that things are not fair, or to prove a point.

As I alluded to earlier, all of you CAN do what you want...the above is just what was hoped for. So from there on in, it's your choice to either quash that hope or not.

Did you like the South Park Episode on Christian Rock?
Most Christian rock seems pretty forced. You don't have to say the words "God I praise, worship, love you" to ACTUALLY praise, worship, and love God through music....but a good chunk of the songs do.
Cookie cutter
The only Christian band I've ever liked is Switchfoot (and U2 I guess who are %75 Christian), and it's becasue their songs worship God without being overtly "YOU ARE THE ALMIGHTY GOD!!!" in every second song. People who do that, you gotta kinda ask..."are they overcompensating for something?" Just a thought.

Well then that sounds great. And I didn't mean it to be insulting, just to say that your voice (or any other) is welcome even if mine isn't.(to some posters) 🙂

What I'm posting isn't quite the same though, if you were trying to make a comparison.
Hill Song United is part of the worship team for Hillsong church in Australia, which has like 10,000 members.
They play all over the world and have albums, but that's just part of how they can reach people now. They've been blessed.... they're not some music industry fad, they actually grew out of one local church.

As far as I'm concerned, you are always welcome. I'm just a little bruised because of some "Christians" who could do nothing but Troll my Buddhist thread. So, I do understand how you feel, I just want to make a point about it. 😉

Well, it seems similar....but anyways, they sure seem to take the audience in..

Anyways, on Christian rock, Stryper is probably one of the most talented and definitely the best Christian heavy metal band ever.

They are kinda preachy, but Michael Sweet is a great guitarist.
Originally posted by Bardock42Sufjan Stevens is good and apparently Christian, that kinda slipped my mind. He's pretty sweet.
Like, we shouldn't argue about this...me being an actual, true Christian (Catholic) of course have the last word in the matter you heretics (protestants of any sort)...but the best Christian Artist...without a doubt...is Sufjan Stevens.
