I did something that I probably shouldn’t have done. I knew better. I did it anyway because I was curious.
I watched the Dove awards a few days ago. If you don’t know what those are, congratulate yourself. The Dove Awards are the Christian grammys. I will confess that I listen to very little Christian music because most of it comes across as lame to me. The Dove Awards reinforced that belief.
Here are a few thoughts:
1. The production was not good. There were many awkward moments for presenters, etc. In my opinion, it wasn’t done with excellence.
2. Christian music hasn’t changed in the past 10 years. I felt that they did a poor job of highlighting new artists. Is there anyone else out there other than Third Day, Steven Curtis Chapman, and Sandy Patty?
3. Sandy Patty was a nominee for Artist of the Year. Seriously?
4. I know it is the 10 year anniversary of ‘I Can Only Imagine’ but can we just retire the song please?
5. The one redeeming factor for me was watching Steven Curtis Chapman sing about his daughter that was tragically killed last year. My eyes were sweating during that part:)

Sandi Patty was not nominated for Artist of the Year, She was nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year. I think there’s a big difference between the two.
