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 almost 50 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday October 12TH 2025 – the 452ND week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

2018 – “Only Jesus” – Casting Crowns
2017 – “The Gospel” – Ryan Stevenson

CAN’T STEAL MY JOY – Josiah Queen’s 3RD hit on my chart is his 1ST # 1 smash, as his collaboration with Brandon Lake spends its 2ND week at the pinnacle. (Brandon is credited with his 2ND # 1 smash.) It’s from Josiah’s 2ND studio album – “Mt. Zion” – which was released a little over 7 weeks ago. His follow-up single – “Dusty Bibles” – enters my chart this week at # 10.

ONE-HIT WONDER – Last week Lincoln Brewster was featured with his one hit that was a # 1 smash for 4 weeks and the # 8 hit of 2018 – “No One Like Our God”. This week it’s another man with one hit that was a # 1 smash, and in fact it was the # 1 smash right before the aforementioned. Matt Redman spent 6 weeks at the top of my chart with his duet with Tasha Cobbs Leonard – “Gracefully Broken”. It’s a song that I sang many times with the Praise & Worship band of my previous home church. It too was one of the biggest hits of 2018. It was the # 6 hit of the entire year.

SPOTIFY – You can hear “My Top 10 Hits” anytime by accessing my CountUp playlist on Spotify. All 10 hits are there from top to bottom. You can hear them in order from # 1 to # 10, or you can shuffle them. My playlist will be updated every weekend (usually before the actual chart is presented here on Mondays). You can link to it here.

Your likes, follows, and comments are always appreciated. Thank You for being part of my online ministry to share God’s Good News and win souls for Christ through His music. God used loud music on the radio in South Florida to reach me in August of 2006. I’ve been testifying about Him ever since.

Be blessed my friends ! May our God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
