Yeah. If the Christian genre share is bigger now, it might just be a welcome pendulum swing away from the "It's all good" mindset. Unfortunately, any genre is by definition limited. To me, uplifting messages are wherever I find them, though I seldom find them around gratuitous sex/violence/cussing or self-rightious belief-bashing.
