Christian Music Surges, Blurring Genre Lines
Update: 2025-12-24
Description
Christian and gospel music is experiencing a surge in popularity, bucking the trend of declining streams for new releases. According to Luminates midyear report, artists like Forrest Frank, Brandon Lake, and Elevation Worship are attracting a younger, predominantly female and millennial audience. This year, two contemporary Christian songs made it to the Billboard Hot one hundreds all-genre top forty, and secular artists are even landing nominations in Christian categories at the Grammys. The genres evolution, with a focus on quality lyrics and artistry, is driving this rise, along with the ease of discovery through streaming and social media, and a resurgence of faith among millennials and Gen Z.
