  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Does anyone like Christian Jazz?

I haven't either, but rok is my speed. Some contemorary jazz is okay sometimes, but it depends more on the song since I am not too crazy about the style. But start a jazz worship band, you'd be original and find a niche market! :) Even though your old folk will tell you that jazz music is the devil's! :)

ROCK ON

I love jazz. The only thing that would make jazz christian is if there is someone singing about christian stuff. I used to go to a jazz bar quite often and watch and listen and pick up tips and grooves that I could encorporate in my own stuff. I just love how jazz can go anywhere pretty much. I am more of a rocker myself anyway but really appreciate the musicianship. Do you have any links to some christian jazz sites?

cheers ;)

I think if enough people got together, there might be a couple of Christian Jazz groups possible. I have tried my hand at both Jazz and Blues on the harmonica. Thus, I think its possible, the only problem is that of putting together a band and getting the word out about them.

i have grown in the direction of leaning towards jazz Christmas music.....

and although this is not jazz, it rocks...it's called the Trans-Siberian Orchestra...i got their CD and it's the only Christmas music i could lisdten to this past christmas....i think i wore the CD and the CD player out i played it so much....

there's some guy that lives around here who i have not met yet...i can hear him and his saxophone soaring melodiously some mornings....it stops me dead in my tracks....love it
