Making Your Music

When you get in the car, most of you turn on your radio almost immediately. I know I do! However, a lot of the radio stations we turn to don't usually play music with the best themes, though they are certainly catchy. Rising charts right now is "Can't Remember to Forget You" by Shakira feat. Rihanna. Now this one, isn't too bad…just a little hint to sex…

"Eh no biggie, thats pretty normal to hear about in my environment (*cough* school *cough*)."  

Sadly, that's pretty much the same thought we have about songs like that. or even if we even thought about it at all. Now what about "Talk Dirty to Me" by Jason Miller is definitely not what we should be feeding our heads and souls. I am guilty of knowing the song, knowing the words, and even knowing what it all hints to. Just because I think something is wrong doesn't mean I don't unwittingly do it too. Now, on a more positive note, there are some pretty decent songs played on the radio. For example, "Demons" by Imagine Dragons (my favorite song to run to) is a pretty darn legit song. Certainly one to roll down your windows and rock out to. But for all y'all who have decided to lean away from the secular music, or even just explore some good Christian music, it can be very hard if you don't know where to look. Here are a few songs/artists if you would like to check them out!

1. "You Alone" by Kutless
2. "Be Somebody" by Thousand Foot Krutch
3. "Broken Hallelujah" by The Afters
4. "Jesus in Disguise" by Brandon Heath
5. "The Struggle" by Tenth Avenue North
6. "Yours Will Be (The Only Name)" by Big Daddy Weave
7. "Changed" by Rascal Flats
8. "After All (Holy)" by David Crowder Band
9. "East to West" by Casting Crowns
10.  "Forever" by Kari Jobe

  1. I LOVE this! I really like how you added in some songs for girls to look up and find some encouragement. Our minds really CAN be shaped by either the wrong kind of music or the right kind. Gotta be careful what we listen to.

    Love what you're doing! Keep it up! (:
