When I listen to contemporary Christian music I can sing along and feel a bit closer to God throughout my day.
I enjoy making it a part of my day, but it wasn't always this way.
Several years ago, I was driving along with my radio playing, mindlessly singing the words to the song coming through the speakers. The song had a catchy beat and I had sung the words many times but lately it was starting to bother me. Some of the words did not align with my morals and belief system. I wish I could say it was just that particular song, but it wasn't. There were several which caused me to question my choice in music. I began thinking about how I would feel if God were sitting next to me in the car. Would I still be singing that song? I knew the answer.
I started searching for a new station, but nothing felt right. Nothing left me feeling the way I wanted to feel. I was looking for something upbeat and positive. I wanted the kind of music that would encourage me on days when I needed encouragement and offer me something more than just mind-numbing lyrics with no real meaning. I wanted to listen to contemporary Christian music.
I had no idea if there was anything in our area that fit the description. I turned to Facebook and within just a few minutes of asking my friends, I had the answer.
