Been listenin to Canton Jones's music on this song My Day I Won't Stop on his myspace page coz it's really uplifting and his music be  preachin the words of God when i feelin down and lost. my friend and i even planned to go to his Hope Nation concert in 2 days. anyone herd his music? maybe we can talk about Canton's music or maybe we can talk about other Christian music artists that you like.

Serina,

I am sorry for your loss.  Take heart though that your friend is really kicking up some jams right now with a perfect melody.  It does make things easier knowing that you will see your friend again.  I do not know who Canton Jones is at this moment, but you can bet as soon as I get done writing this I am going to go out and look.  If it is music and it speaks about Jesus I am in there with my headphones on :)  Can't sing a lick but my shower is the Hollywood Bowl :)

Hello MusicLuv2,

I see that you are new, so WELCOME!

I'm sorry about your recent loss and I will be praying for you and your friends.

I sincerely hope that you enjoy Christians Unite. We do have people of all ages who visit the forum, but I'm one of the local grandpas. I don't know much about the music of today, and I would probably be viewed as an "Old SQUARE" in my tastes for Christian music. I'm sorry that I'm not familiar with the artist you mentioned. If it's comforting and uplifting, I'm simply glad that you found some Christian music you enjoy. I doubt you will recognize some of my favorite artists, but I'll mention a few anyway:  The Gaither Family, The Blackwood Brothers, The Cathedral Quartet.

In the meantime:

Love In Christ,
Tom

Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable GIFT, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour Forever!

I haven't posted herein quite a while...but I often come to places where I can't move on...for different reasons...lesser reasons than having a friend die from violence.  I am so sorry to read this today...I know that if you can wait, He will strengthen you and help you face this situation with grace and wisdom...He can also be there for you if you need a good cry.  Yes, Godly music can be very comforting...I just don't listen to it much anymore for some reason...but that is where I am right now...

hey yall, Serina here.hanging in there at umgd. thanks for all your comments. i was real depressed and sad for the past week coz it came as a shocker that he was gone just like that. i became real angry at those people that just took him away like that. listening to Canton Jones's music made me think back to the times when I was with him and the times we spent together. it's been real hard for me to let go....and it made me really question why He took my friend away like that. it was like just yesterday that we were discussin bout going to the Hope Nation tour together....lately been goin threw lots of emotions--sad, angry, depressed, etc. but i really thank you for everyone here who has sincerely reached out to me with your heart felt comments. Thank you!
