Christian Rock is simply Rock with Christian lyrics.


Strictly speaking about the style and sound aspects, there is no difference because without considering lyrics, everything else is theoretically the same.

I think Christian Rock is usually music marketed for Christians.

That may be cynical, but - I am

Well, when I first heard "Skillet" (a christian rock band) I thought they was just a rock band. It was only a little later did I find out they were in actual fact Christian Rock. On first glance, some of their lyrics could be that of just rock but if you're a Christian then you may see the inner meaning of the song.

A friend of mine isn't a Christian yet loves Skillet.

I suppose what makes the definition of Christian Rock is if the band members are of Christian religion.

Ack, rambling.

Christian Rock in general is a rock band with Christian members, singing about Christian things.

Some of them don't have all-Christian lyrics, though. Like I remember the first time I saw Blindside, I didn't know they were a Christian band until halfway through their set, and they stopped to be like, "Let's all give it up for Jesus Christ!" and I was just like, "What the hell?" cause their songs are not openly religious for the most part.
