200 weekly hit music charts and 190 positive and encouraging hits have created this cumulative hit music chart of my Top 20 hits of this current era of my chart ever since it was resurrected on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017 here in the U.S. after a 7-year hiatus. It’s based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay.

What a great chart of glorious music that gives thanks to our God. Matthew West, MercyMe, Micah Tyler, and Chris Tomlin have been quite active over the past 200 weeks placing multiple songs on my cumulative Top 20 chart. They represent 4 out of my Top 6 artists during this era with 10 # 1 hits, 44 weeks at # 1, and 18 hits overall.
Every song on here sounds as fresh today as it did when I first heard it on the radio. You know this era has been extra special for me. It’s lasted 200 weeks, and it’s still going strong. God used Christian music to rescue and save me almost 14½ years ago at the age of 39. In the beginning I solely listened to Christian music on the radio. I did that for about 3½ years. The “Salvation Era” of my chart lasted about 180 weeks, and then I completely stopped producing a weekly hit music chart after 24 years. I was actually turned-off by Christian music on the radio, but my journey with Christ continued moving forward. (I actually went in to church leadership after that.)
After a “revival” of sorts during Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017 in Tallahassee Florida and on-the-road between there and home – this weekly hit music chart was resurrected after a 7-year hiatus into this current era.
If you’re not familiar with one or any of these songs then use Google, Bing, or YouTube to check them out. Enjoy the music, but especially listen to the words. The words of these songs represent God’s Word. Any one of these songs can change your life forever.
He has given me a new song to sing – a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what He has done, and be amazed. They will put their trust in the LORD. (Psalm 40:3 NLT)
