November 9, 2026

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 November 08TH 2026 – the 508TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

CAIN – Taylor, Madison, and Logan Cain reach # 1 on my chart for the 4TH time – and first time in 27 months when they were featured on Caleb & John’s # 1 smash “Somebody Like Me”. “Living Water” is their first # 1 smash by themselves since “Yes He Can” in July 2021.

We’re up to my # 24 hit from my Salvation Era, and it’s from the Chicago-based band The Fold. “Medicine” was the lead-off track from their 2ND studio album – “Secrets Keep You Sick”. The Tooth & Nail Records album was released in May 2007. “New Skeptic” was the first radio song off that album, and “Medicine” followed at the end of 2007. It built momentum during the first quarter of 2008, as it peaked at # 2 for 4 non-consecutive weeks on my chart.

Next week I’ll shine a light on my # 25 hit.

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.
