We are now 123 weeks into this 3RD era (I call it the K-LOVE era) of my personal hit music chart, and it’s the continuation of a hobby that began over 40 years ago when I – as a kid – listened to “American Top 40 With Casey Kasem” – and wrote down the songs as Casey counted them down from coast to coast.

I never imagined that a childhood hobby that became an adult hobby would eventually become part of my online ministry, but here we are.

This is the music that I enjoy listening to on the radio. I mostly listen to K-LOVE (over the airwaves), but every so often I listen to The Message on SiriusXM (online or via satellite). The Message tends to play newer music, as K-LOVE plays about 75% recurrent hits (of the past few years) and 25% current hits. K-LOVE actually reminds me a lot of a late-1970s / early-1980s Top 40 radio station – the type of radio station that inspired this hobby in the beginning.

If you’re not familiar with this music then Google or YouTube any song, and listen to it. Listen to the words. Hear God’s Good News for you. Open your heart. May it encourage you. May it inspire you. May it change your life forever. That’s what it did for me almost 13 years ago.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again next weekend – 4 new entries on 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. Enjoy this week my friends. I’m on Twitter @ChrisMDay, and I’m also the man behind the tweets for my church @LivingWatersHFL. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him. AMEN.

My Top 10 Hits – Week 122

Every Monday night I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday June 16TH 2019:

“Church (Take Me Back)” – Cochren & Co. [# 2 last week / 17TH week]
“Born Again” – Austin French [1 / 16TH]
“Is He Worthy ?” – Chris Tomlin [5 / 11TH]
“Resurrecting” – Elevation Worship [3 / 10TH]
“Prize Worth Fighting For” – Jamie Kimmett [4 / 10TH]
“Greater Things” – Mack Brock [6 / 5TH]
“Raise A Hallelujah” – Bethel Music [7 / 2ND]
“Till I Found You” – Phil Wickham [9 / 2ND]
“Symphony” – Switch [10 / 2ND]
”Build My Life” – Pat Barrett [8 / 7TH]

# 1 One Year Ago This Week:
“Do It Again” – Elevation Worship

# 1 Two Years Ago This Week:
“Home” – Chris Tomlin

The oldest song on my chart replaces the 2ND-oldest song on my chart at # 1. After 8 non-consecutive weeks at # 2 Michael Cochren and his friends from South Indiana finally reach the pinnacle with a song that sounds just as fresh today as the day I first heard it on the radio back in February. It’s a song about going to church – something I’ve done nearly every Sunday morning since the first time I went to church as an adult at age 39 on Sunday January 21ST 2007.

This track was nominated for the K-LOVE Fan Award of Breakout Single Of The Year – and deservedly so. I voted for it. It lost the award to “Maybe It’s OK” – another great track – from We Are Messengers.

Here’s the official lyric video of “Church (Take Me Back)”. I can’t stop singing along to it when I hear it – and for hours afterwards:

God has given me the responsibility of serving His church by proclaiming His entire message to you. (Colossians 1:25)

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

Last night was a fun night of multitasking – watching the K-LOVE Fan Awards on TBN – and live-tweeting from start to finish. If you missed it – or if you want to watch it again (or DVR it) – then TBN will be re-airing it this upcoming Saturday night at 9 PM PDT / 12 AM (Midnight) EDT.

I cranked-out 27 tweets @ChrisMDay during the 2-hour telecast, and those 27 tweets generated over 3,300 impressions. The tweet with the most impressions (by far – not even close) was the one I did on “The Breakup Song” from Francesca Battistelli as she performed it on the show. The tweet in 2ND place was the one I did on Coach Joe Gibbs. (He won the Sports Impact Award.)

As tweeted last night only 1 of my 8 votes cast actually won. Lauren Daigle won Female Artist Of The Year, and I voted for her for that award. She also won Artist Of The Year. (I voted for MercyMe.)

I wonder if K-LOVE would give me a 3-night package for next year’s Fan Awards in Nashville if I offered my blogging and tweeting services for the duration of the weekend extravaganza ? I shall ponder on that for awhile.

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

Austin French remains at # 1 for a 2ND week with the adopted theme song of the past (nearly) 13 years of my life. I am “Born Again” !

♫ I was down on my luck. I was stuck. I was running ’round broken-hearted. I was sinking so fast. I couldn’t last. Falling apart. And You could’ve ran away. Leaving me there in my shame. Leaving me fighting my pain. But You made a better way. ♫

This upcoming Sunday night starting at 9 PM EDT (U.S. East Coast time) I’ll be watching the K-LOVE Fan Awards on TBN, and I’ll be live-tweeting during the show @ChrisMDay.

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