Jesus and his disciples very likely would have sung psalms from
their time which by the very nature makes them Christian music.
Early Christians continued to sing the psalms much as they were
sung then. The gospels of Matthew (26:30) and Mark (14:26) state
that Jesus sang a hymn with his disciples immediately before his
betrayal. The apostle Paul in the book of Ephesians (5:19)
exhorted the church at Ephesus to speak to each other "in psalms
and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your
heart to the Lord". Recent Christian Music
The most recent common form of Christian music is contemporary
Christian music. This draws some of its influence from secular
music of the last century and is the most popular kind of
Christian music in the Western world today. Although there are
many Christian music artists in the mainstream music industry,
the term contemporary Christian music usually refers
specifically to artists within the Christian music industry that
are played on Christian music radio. Christian Music Touches
You Where You Are. But through it all, Christian music, with
or without lyrics, has been used by Christian music singers
and musicians to honor God, inspire his people, challenge the
wayward and brighten a stormy day for thousands of years.
Most of us especially within the past several years have read
about the politically correct rantings of secularists that
want to do away with anything dealing with Christianity and
also as it applies to Christian music. There are many people
who are against all forms of contemporary Christian music and
Christian Rock. They have tried to judge its source and
determine it is just another form of rock n roll. That there
is no Christian message to it that matters spiritually so it
should just be grouped into the rock n roll or contemporary
music categories.
So the question has been asked is there ministry to Christian
music? Does the message within this Christian music mean
anything more than any other average rock song or contemporary
listening music today? The current Christian music business has
the obligation to prove that giving Christian music the title
of ministry is deserved.
One Christian music artist that is doing just that is Tim
Kaufman. He brings praise to the Lord in his songs. He
rejoices to the fact that his Christian music has helped
minister to listeners that were unaware that it would bring
the Lord into their life, sometimes at unknown and
unsuspecting times that has caused joyous victory for The
Lord.
One such time that drives Tim's direction for his ministry
comes from letters like this one were his Christian music
has touched lives:
"Tim...My wife and I drove our van out to the woods and
were planning our suicide. We noticed one of your tapes
on the floor, put it in and began to weep as the Lord brought
a renewed hope to our hurting hearts. We thank you and our
kids thank you. Keep the Christian music coming." J. & K. D.,
Florida
