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 40+ years. Here’s this week’s chart:

COUNTUP MINISTRIES	FOR THE WEEK ENDING SUNDAY MARCH 14TH 2021	WEEK 213

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	9	Say I Won’t [3RD week @ # 1]	MercyMe
2	4	4	Good God Almighty	Crowder
3	5	8	Fires	Jordan St. Cyr
4	3	8	Less Like Me	Zach Williams
5	2	16	Every Step Of The Way	Cade Thompson
6	10	2	Amen	for King & Country
7	7	23	Truth Be Told	Matthew West
8	6	18	Out Of My Hands	Jeremy Camp
9	8	12	Another In The Fire	Hillsong United
10	–	1	Help Is On The Way (Maybe Midnight)	TobyMac

# 1 This Week In:
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Confidence” – Sanctus Real
2018 – “No One Like Our God” – Lincoln Brewster
2017 – “I Have This Hope” – Tenth Avenue North

MercyMe spend their 3RD week at # 1 with “Say I Won’t”. It’s the band’s 19TH week at # 1 on my chart during this current era (since February 2017), and that surpasses the 18 weeks at # 1 for Casting Crowns.

Both Crowder and Jordan St. Cyr have a chance at # 1 next week. Crowder’s been at # 1 twice before (with “Forgiven” in 2017 and “Red Letters” in 2019).

TobyMac is back with his 8TH hit on my chart since 2017. That’s more than any other artist. He also scored with an additional 3 hits from 2007 to 2009 during the salvation era of my chart. His “Help Is On The Way” is the 200TH chart hit of this era. The 1ST chart hit ? – TobyMac’s “Love Broke Thru”.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again this upcoming weekend – with 5 new entries on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.

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. I’m also on Twitter and Flickr.

Be blessed my friends ! May the 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.

# 1 This Week In:
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Red Letters” – Crowder
2018 – “No One Like Our God” – Lincoln Brewster
2017 – “I Have This Hope” – Tenth Avenue North

for King & Country return to my chart for the first time since the middle of December of 2019. “Amen” is their new radio single, and it’s their 5TH hit on my chart since 2017. It’s actually not such a new single. It’s from their 2018 album “Burn The Ships”, and it’s the 4TH single from that album.

“Amen” is all about that breathtaking and life-changing moment during baptism when the new body rises up from the water, and a new life in Christ has begun publicly.

I’m comin’ alive with You !

Here’s the official music video for “Amen”. You can watch it here, or link here on YouTube.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again this upcoming weekend – with 4 new entries on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.

Be blessed my friends ! May the 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.

COUNTUP MINISTRIES	FOR THE WEEK ENDING SUNDAY FEBRUARY 28TH 2021	WEEK 211

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	3	7	Say I Won’t [1ST week @ # 1]	MercyMe
2	1	14	Every Step Of The Way	Cade Thompson
3	2	16	Out Of My Hands	Jeremy Camp

# 1 This Week In:
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Red Letters” – Crowder
2018 – “Gracefully Broken” – Matt Redman Ft. Tasha C. Leonard
2017 – “Love Broke Thru” – Toby Mac

After 12 consecutive weeks at # 1 Cade Thompson’s “Every Step Of The Way” eases down one notch this week to # 2. It was # 1 all 4 weeks of December, all 5 weeks of January, and the first 3 weeks of February.

Replacing Cade at the top is the last act to spend 12 consecutive weeks at # 1 – MercyMe. They did it last February to May with “Almost Home”. This is their follow-up single – “Say I Won’t”. It’s their 5TH hit on my chart since 2017. 2017 is also the last time they released an album (“Lifer”) which included their first 3 hits. I’m expecting a new album from them this year that will include both “Almost Home” and “Say I Won’t”.

Be blessed my friends ! May the 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.

My Top 10 Hits – Week 210

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back 40+ years. Here it is – this week’s chart:

COUNTUP MINISTRIES	WEEK ENDING SUNDAY FEBRUARY 21ST 2021

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	13	Every Step Of The Way [12TH week @ # 1]	Cade Thompson
2	2	15	Out Of My Hands	Jeremy Camp

# 1 This Week In:
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Maybe It’s OK” – We Are Messengers
2018 – “Gracefully Broken” – Matt Redman Ft. Tasha C. Leonard
2017 – “Love Broke Thru” – Toby Mac

Last Sunday night (February 14TH 2021) I attended TobyMac’s “Hits Deep Tour 2021” at the BB&T Center here in South Florida (Sunrise). It was my first LIVE concert in over 11 months (since just before COVID shut-down America), and it was my first LIVE concert at the BB&T Center in over 15 months. It was also my 3RD TobyMac concert in mid-February over the past 4 years.

The wearing of face masks was mandatory and strictly enforced by staff. The arena had socially-distanced seating. Individuals and groups were more than 6 feet apart from others both in the standard (elevated) seating as well as the floor seating. Arena seating (usable for the concert) was probably no more than about 20% to 25% full. It was one of the best concert experiences I can ever remember for the simple reason that I had plenty of room to stand-up and dance all around my seat on the floor, and I did just that. Everyone had their own personal dancefloor !

I was seated along the right-edge of the floor in the center of the arena. There were two stages – the main stage up-front – and the center stage to the left of me (by about 20 feet or so).

Unspoken kicked-off the show from the main stage, and then Terrian performed from the center stage. We Are Messengers were up next from the main stage, and then Cochren & Co. took over from the center stage. Tauren Wells performed from the main stage. The first 5 artists split (almost evenly) 1 hour and 20 minutes (about 15 minutes apiece). They were all great. We Are Messengers are my personal favorite of the 5, so naturally I was singing and dancing along through all of their hits. I liked when Chad Mattson (lead singer of Unspoken) guest-performed “Echo” (the Elevation Worship song) with Tauren Wells.

After a 35-minute sermon and fundraising push (Food For The Hungry) TobyMac took center stage for “The Elements”. He performed non-stop hits for the next 1 hour and 35 minutes – performing about half of his set from the main stage – and half from the center stage. The guy has so much energy for his age. (He’s 56.) He’s also from one of my childhood hometowns of Fairfax County Virginia.

Terrian was with Toby for many of his hits. (She’s a back-up vocalist with Toby’s Diverse City band.) Michael Cochren assisted Toby with one of his hits.

What a great night to praise and worship my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ with my instant church family for the night.

Be blessed my friends ! May the 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.
