Kids in Christian Music - Youth Leading Youth
Wednesday May 7, 2008
In our culture there are plenty of young stars saturating the airwaves. Some of them do a great job of setting a good example for kids. Others behave like train wrecks and their antics and mistakes are prominently featured everywhere. Kids, being young and impressionable, want to be popular like their favorite entertainers. They want to dress like them, act like them and are frequently in awe of them.
When those they admire are bands like Jump5 or BarlowGirl or artists like Robert Pierre or Krystal Meyers, we, as parents can feel safe. When they look up to pregnant teens or rehab repeaters, safe isn't the word.

The kids are alright! I must expand my iPod listening to Christian music.
I wish today’s Christian music had been available when I was a kid. My children and I travel to every Christian concert we can, we’ve even managed to get my wife involved. This Saturday, we will see Skillet, Thousand Foot Krutch and Decyfer Down in Huntington, WV. We rock out, worship and enjoy nights out as a family. Sometimes they even mange to keep up with their old man… hee, hee, hee…
