I would like to see a place for Christian Music. A place where people can discuss music they like , introduce new music to people, share guitar chords, tell about any bands they are in and what they are doing and how God is blessing them. A music thread would be really cool.

What is Christian music? I know what Christian lyrics are, but what is Christian music?

You must be Church of Christ?

It sounds like the kind of thing that would fit into either Anything Goes or the Praise forum.

A single music thread would be hard to follow with so many different musical instruments, but if there's anything you want to discuss in terms of music you can always start a thread in Anything Goes.

A social group for musicians or music lovers would be cool.

http://oldchristianradio.com/ <-- this is probably the biggest old christian music website you could possibly come accross. They have a "web radio player" which plays music from their website, you can also order hundreds of good Christian music (not the devil's stuff).

I bought two discs from there, it's also good to listen to when I write bible articles, sometimes secular music just doesn't cut it! But I also like orchestral arrangements.

Hmmm....why can't I rep you for this?

Anyway, completely agree with this post.

That isn't so clear. Any kind of music that glorifies God could be Christian music, but nearly any kind could, at least theoretically. A lot depends on the audience: some music will inspire a given audience to love God and to appreciate His love for them, and other music won't. It may be glorious and godly as the artist intended it, and as God hears it, but the audience's cultural background may not allow them to appreciate it.

What is deemed as Christian music by record labels and what actually is Christian music very...different.

I would say that Christian music is any music that is made to glorify God and His word.
