Christian Country Music has been around for generations, originating as a blend of music from the mountains, the world of cowboys, and from southern plantation life.
It was out of this blend of music that Southern Gospel music was birthed and was founded, primarily in the southern states. Today, as Southern Gospel music seems to be waning in popularity, Christian country music has blended with a new brand of music called Positive Christian Country music. The music tends to deal with life's problems and God's answers to those problems, and it doesn't sound like the religious music of years past. It has attracted extraordinary talent and quality in production, thereby making it palatable to the ears of the un-churched who like the sounds of today's country music. It's becoming a tool for evangelism all over the world and through it many churches have sprung up around the country with country gospel as their main musical format. They are known as Cowboy churches. Click on the links below to visit websites with more information on Christian country music.
