I thought I was the only one who had ever choreographed to Amy Grant in middle school.
Thanks for your post, Lindsay. Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith (I used to ship them before I was old enough to know better) were my gateway to CCM and Christian Rock. Like many of you in this thread, my faith and musical tastes have both grown, although somewhat divergently. I look back on CCM with a lot of fond nostalgia, although I'm still a fan of Jars of Clay -- their musicianship has evolved over time and they remain awesome.
It's interesting that Lindsay noted the importance of talking about doubt in faith, which is something I feel Jars have always done, and which Derek Webb in particular has done to tremendous effect in his latest album (which everyone should definitely check out).
