"The fact that there are Christian themes now emerging in rock

It has been really satisfying to notice this. I recall walking into a mall in the late 1990's and hearing DC Talk on the music system.

And to think the lame stuff that was circulating on cassettes in the late '80s. Yikes!

Here's hoping artists who record this type of music don't get fat and sassy.

During one of our prison concerts, the boys commented that one of the songs we played was on the radio. I was surprised by that. I never listen to music on the radio and depend on my guitarist (he used to be a manager at Mhyr records) to select music. I had never heard of Switchfoot until we started practicing "Meant to Live" a few months ago...

2nd chapter of acts comes to mind, but the guy had awesome pipes. I understand he finally made a solo attempt but it may have been too late.
