CCM Soundcheck
CCM Soundcheck is a show about the songs that shaped a generation of Christian radio, youth group, and church camp. Hosts CJ and Gary have been friends for years. Every episode, they sit down with a new "Third Chair" guest who has never heard the featured song before.
They dig into one song from Contemporary Christian Music's 1985 to 2005 era. You'll hear the stories behind the music, the facts you never knew, and a guest's honest first reaction caught live. If you grew up on CCM, you'll remember it. If you didn't, you're about to find out what you missed. Find us at ccmsoundcheck.com.
