hubbarddebra99 View Profile History	Christian music only? Posted : 20 Oct, 2010 10:41 AM I like EVRYTHING in music: from Areosmith to Zydeco!!!

View Profile History	Christian music only? Posted : 29 Oct, 2010 08:43 PM I put only Christian music on my iPod. (With the exception of "Sweet Home ALabama") Not because I think only heathens listen to secular music, but because it's what I like. Don't get me wrong. I think when it comes to music, everyone is entitled to their own taste. As for me, I just don't like the lyrics of a lot of secular artists, and that's what I enjoy most of a song. Post Reply

I think it's important to listen to music that doesn't cause you to stumble, but after a while the same couple Christian CDs get old. Post Reply

View Profile History	Christian music only? Posted : 19 Nov, 2010 06:03 PM I like the Christian Rock, but many times I just want something...harder and the Christian music tends to be softer and more sappy. Which there's nothing wrong with that it just doesn't fit all my moods. Post Reply
Thatoneguy1983 View Profile History	Christian music only? Posted : 28 Nov, 2010 08:41 PM I grew up listening to classic rock and Metallica. I gave my life to Christ when I was 14 and immediately got rid of all my secular music. DC Talk had just put out "Jesus Freak" and that was just about all I listened to for a few months. Thankfully, I discovered Skillet, P.O.D., Audio Adrenaline, etc. before long and was rockin' out with Jesus pretty soon. I continued to listen only to Christian music for probably 4 or 5 years. As I've grown in my walk, I have become less legalistic and I broadened my musical collection to include anything that isn't vulgar or degrading. I think it's one of those things where you have to follow your convictions. If you feel guilty listening to secular music, then don't. If you listen to music that has a negative effect on you--fills your mind with obscenities or keeps you more focused on things of this world than Christ--then you should probably clean out your music library.

song0joy View Profile History	Christian music only? Posted : 13 Dec, 2010 11:07 PM I listen to any style of music, but most of the time, the words really kill it for me. That is why I usually listen to Christian and soundtrack/classical/jazz/instrumental/choral/techno music. But I find that even some of the Christian songs disappoint, in lyrics and in sound. My only thing with music is that it has to be good. I'm a singer, so I have a picky ear. Post Reply

View Profile History	Christian music only? Posted : 9 Aug, 2011 11:16 PM I do the same as song0joy. Honestly, much of the Christian music out there doesn't really appeal to me musically. But lyrically, their influence is superior to what you bring in when you listen to a lot of the junk that's out there... Post Reply
