Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay from the previous week. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back over 45 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday July 30TH 2023 – the 337TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

RETRO – You know I kind of miss compiling and presenting #RetroFriday here on my blog. It’s been 3 months since “My Top 5 Hits RETRO” ended after over 5 years. That was a natural continuation of the “Saturday Night Retro” era of my blog from the 1990s and 2000s. This past Friday I would’ve looked back at 35 years ago at the end of July 1988. That’s when Rod Stewart was at # 1 on my chart with “Lost In You”. That was a good song !
JOSH WILSON – But let’s look back at 5 years ago this weekend. That’s when Josh Wilson hit # 1 on my chart with his cool-sounding “Dream Small” song. It had a weird title for a positive and encouraging Christian song, but the song was uplifting, and so were its lyrics. I never hear it on the radio these days, but I can still sing along to it when I play it on YouTube.
This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 3 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #SundayScripture, and #MusicMonday.
