That is a good one, I like her. She sure has some voice. Anew to you? Go look for & listen to her Revelation song. That's verrry good one.

Now you got me ;istening to worship music. I like Kari Jobi _ Revelation Song! Plus I like Awesome God a lot, I can remember all the words!

Hillsong may have it's scandels, who knows, but they did put out some great songs. Jenn Johnson is real good- Bless the Lord Oh my Soul...and Breath, and open the eyes of my heart Lord! Good one.

I wouldn't listen to anything from Jenn Johnson. She's the one who talks about the angels having farting contests in the Throne Room of God, and of the Holy Spirit being like a blue genie. Maybe she does do something that looks OK once in a while, but even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Frankly anything from Bethel is a hard no for me.

I never heard that before! Farting contest, lol. It doesnt really matter to me who they are and what their problem is, it's not really my business. That stuff is between them and God. I wasn't talking the theology they hold to or anything like that, just the music, taken as is.

If I don't like a particular song, I dont get mad at the singer or writer.
So why should I dislike the music because they had a scandel off stage?

The music is a gateway to the teachings. Bethel teaches all sorts of things that don't align with Scripture. If the theology is badly wrong it's hard to see how anything branded as worship that comes from the same place will be sound.

I gotta go with #1 She nails that song so good right there. That 2nd one was cool, they had a lot of different languages singing in there, English, German, Japanese, Finnish and I dunno what else, but it sounded pretty good.

Yes, I must agree. The other version needed to be about 30 min long with every nationality going crazy with revelation song, even round robin and a lot more Kari Jobe.

What's a Christian song you don't like, and why?

When I was a little girl, my mom had a 78 record of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen that was SLOW and it scared me so much!! I'd run to my bed and hide whenever she would put it on the record player.
I don’t like most modern Christian songs.

Not because I’m bitter or hard to please—because I’m hungry for something real, and most of what’s out there is spiritually hollow. It’s polished, emotional, and catchy—but lacks the weight of holiness, truth, and fire.

Too many modern worship songs talk about God like He’s a vague feeling, a romantic partner, or an emotional mood. They rarely name Jesus, rarely mention the Cross, and almost never call out sin, repentance, spiritual war, or the fear of the Lord.

> “Having a form of godliness, but denying its power…” —2 Timothy 3:5



A lot of it is written to be safe, marketable, and non-offensive. But the gospel is offensive. The Cross is bloody. Holiness is not optional. And worship is not a concert—it’s war.

I don’t want feel-good lyrics that could be sung to a boyfriend or slapped on a Hallmark card. I want songs that tremble before the throne, that make demons flee, that strip me bare before a holy God.

So no—I don’t like most modern Christian music.

Give me a psalm soaked in agony. Give me hymns that preach doctrine with fire. Give me songs that exalt Christ crucified, risen, and returning—not songs that help me “feel seen.”

If the Church is going to wake up, its songs have to carry the weight of truth again.

Until then, I’ll write the kind of music I can’t find—songs that burn, songs that confront, songs that glorify Jesus without compromise.

It seems much of the contemporary music has gone for the catch-y licks. There are a few I enjoy (Mercy Me, Newsboys) but my enjoyment of contemporary ends about there.
I enjoy secular progressive rock, and have discovered many Christian prog bands that aren't going to get the airplay for that reason. It's a shame because they truly do address sin and the hope we have in Christ
