See if you can find the KROQ Christmas album. They make on every year and being that they are a rock/alternative radio station, I'm sure there will be some songs you can find from that. Good luck!!

Have parishioners volunteer to play their drum set, bass guitar, etc in the church band.  You can meet an hour before mass each Sunday to go over the music, and just jam it.  Pick music that is upbeat, modern, and interesting.  A lot of churches are doing this, including mine, where I'm a pianist at one of the masses.

I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord... we say YES Lord Yes Lord Yes yes Lord! haha Trading my Sorrows! \n\nlike the people above said those cds are a good choice. I would recommend buying individual tracks as well like Trading my Sorrows, Blessed be Your name, I want to See You, deeper, and much more. Artists that sing more of the praise and worship music are artists like Sonicflood and Delirious. Sonicflood's gold cd and stuff are good and Delirious's older cds are good. Hillsong also has a lot of praise and worship songs. you can check out their old CDs and their CD "Look To You". \nif you need more suggestions on songs and stuff feel free to email me at singingseamonkey@yahoo.com

If you want just the music without anyone singing it go to:\n\nhttp://resources.christianity.com/details.aspx?showcode=hofc&xml=hofc_20051115_1c540589-9232-4835-b50b-9d7c63a841ae&play=true\n\nThere will be a link in the middle of the page that says "listen now", click it and a new window will pop up and it will play in that new window.  If you want to hear people singing it go to:\n\nhttp://www.rhapsody.com/sacredchoirs\nthere is a link you click on, and it too should pop up in a new window. We LOVE this song!!!  If you don't like that version of it, you can do a search on rhapsody for it and it pops up like 200 plus versions of it

Very simple answer. And it has nothing to do with it being a Christian band.  Well... Almost nothing.\n\nSee, the whole point of Christian music is to spread a message.  The message is the foremost thing they work on.  \n\nThe music itself is secondary.  And whenever you create a song with an agenda, your sound is never going to live up to that agenda.

If you like Barlow Girl, you may like the almost rock-folk of Sara Groves.  I listen to more Christian hip-hop than rock, but I do also like the artists that you mentioned.  In rock, I also like Audio Adrenaline, Superchic[k], Out of Eden, Peace of Mind, Toby Mac, and Thousand Foot Krutch.  I also like the sound of Family Force Five, but to put a small disclaimer, I haven't checked their lyrics yet.  ( I know, they sell them in the Christian stores, but I still check lyrics.....)  If you like it a little punky sometimes, then there is also the O.C. Supertones and Reliant K.  Those are pretty mainstream punkers.  Good stuff.  \n\nThere are also a lot of Christian garage bands out there, who God is using to reach their cities, and you might be able to get a good cd from them.  If you don't know of a Christian Club that lets groups play, try calling a larger non-denomination church (they are usually into music like that) and see if the youth pastor knows of any. I'm so encouraged that you like to fill your mind with Christian music!

Being a Christian myself I don't think in my own personal mind I don't think that the kind of music you like should interfear with your religion. To me, they're totally diff worlds. My personal life, which consits of my culture, my school, what I like to do in my spare time, and what music I like, and then another world which is my relgion, Christianity, which still consits of me, and my personal out look on my Christianity so, I don't think trhat the music you like interfears with your Christianity
