Same here.

Some music I consider worship music because it exalts God.

The rest of it, the focus on self part, I consider more generically *Christian music*.

FWIW, the much older Hillsong was good. The focus was much more on God. Now, however, forget it. It’s been going downhill for a long time now.

They don’t call it “Christian country”, because the two are often not that different anyway. Unlike “Christian rock”, which they have to specify so that you know it’s that, and otherwise might have missed. But the modern urban country stuff, however, is not the same. It’s all going downhill as you say. To the ducks. Down to the fishies in the deep blue sea. Give me that old time Gospel music.

Our church has a wonderful balance. No “production”, no smoke and lights, but our music guy sets Psalms to music. Simple, guitar and piano. Absolutely beautiful.
