3 Reasons Why You Should Ignore Upbeat Christian Music

Why listen to upbeat Christian music? We are living in a world where white supremacists march in public, chanting “Jews will never replace us,” and a man shoots Latino shoppers at an El Paso Wal-Mart. School shootings are almost as common as proms. President Trump demonizes immigrants and tweets racist remarks. And we have a president who is intolerant of all religions and people of color. These are all good reasons to ignore praise and worship music, but how do you know what to avoid?

Thomas Dorsey

Some people say upbeat Christian music is not good for their spiritual well-being. That may be true for some Christian music. But the lyrics aren’t always the problem. There are good Christian songs for all moods. Some of them even have deep spiritual meaning. You can hear them on radio stations such as Pandora. Others are just a bit creepy. Regardless of your taste, there are reasons why you should ignore upbeat Christian music.

Some people say CCM has become too politically correct and is insensitive to the times. For example, Christian hip-hop artist Lecrae recently responded to criticism that it isn’t good enough and should stick to the gospel. Another gospel star, Kirk Franklin, has been critical of evangelicals’ support for Trump. But CCM stars don’t have to tell their listeners to become Democrats. They can pin their message on the example of Jesus’ life. If you’re in doubt, check out some U2 songs.

Mahalia Jackson

If you’ve ever heard the music of Mahalia Jackson, you know that she’s no ordinary singer. Her soulful voice was a revelation to many, and she became an icon in the process. Sadly, her death isn’t the only reason she was so admired. Despite her success, there’s also some controversy surrounding her life and legacy. Here are some reasons to ignore upbeat Christian music in general.

First of all, the gospel singer Mahalia Jackson had an incredible voice that shaped the genre. Her incredible talent, despite her incredibly diverse range, was largely unmatched. Her live performances were so moving, that it was impossible not to be moved by her power. Her songs were so powerful that they touched the hearts of millions of people worldwide. And her gospel songs have inspired even mainstream white listeners to appreciate their music.

As an aside, Jackson was a strong advocate of social justice. She was an ally of King and Coretta Scott King, and she helped raise their voices. Her songs helped bring a movement to life and broke down barriers. In addition to the powerful voice that she had, she also contributed financial support and inspiration to those who struggled for civil rights. Her contribution to society made her a champion in the eyes of Coretta Scott King.

Chris Howland

If you want to listen to compelling Christian music, you shouldn’t ignore the latest track from rising star Chris Howland. His new track Keep Me is a soulful, danceable number that you will love. The musician is also a former worship pastor and Rising Star finalist. While his music may not be mainstream, it does have a powerful message. If you don’t believe in God, you can still enjoy this track and feel encouraged by it.

Josh Turner

If you are looking for an album that will appeal to both conservatives and liberals alike, Josh Turner may be your guy. The singer/songwriter, whose first book was entitled Man Stuff, is known for his conservative values. The book is equal parts autobiography and a modern conservative manifesto. In addition to exploring the singer’s religious and social beliefs, Josh Turner also offers advice on how to live a better life. Listen to the audiobook below to find out what makes him different from the other country singers.

If you listen to country songs, many of them are written by other people, aimed at the radio, and presented in a style the producers dictate, without any creative input from the artists. Country singers often have little control over the material, but Josh Turner reflects his passion for praise music in his latest release. The album’s name is self-explanatory. Josh Turner is married with four sons, and the singer travels the country with his family.

One of the album’s best moments is the title track, “The River of Happiness.” The title track was written by Turner’s son, Hampton when he was just eight years old. Hampton’s mother asked him what he saw when he played the mandolin. The result is a song that will make you sing along to it again. In addition, Josh Turner’s “Mele Kalikimaka My ‘Ohana” is one of the albums that feature the singer’s wife, Jennifer.

Josh Turner’s “Me and God”

A classic country song, “Me and God” was written by country singer Josh Turner. It was released in 2006 as the third single from his album Your Man. The song featured bluegrass guitarist Ralph Stanley. It was nominated for the 2007 Academy of Country Music Award for Vocal Event of the Year. It was a hit in the Christian market, and it also reached No. 2 on the country charts. Its nostalgic lyrics and infectious melody made it a country music classic.

The song was inspired by Josh Turner’s childhood experience singing in church choirs. He later formed a gospel group called Thankful Hearts, which led him to study music at Nashville’s Belmont University. He made his first appearance on the Grand Ole Opry in 2001 and received a standing ovation for the song. He’s been performing around the world since and continues to make history.

While Josh Turner’s song’s lyrics and video are inspired by his personal experience, they are still universal. The song “Me and God” is a powerful statement about faith. Its message of love and freedom is universal, which will resonate with millions. It also speaks to the human desire to feel close to God. The song is a perfect example of how a Christian should view faith and the role it plays in our lives.
