The Christian labels starting with the "Songs 4 Worship" Cds that sold widely and were produced by TimeLife/Integirity/Maranatha!­, these Christian labels started producing compilations every month just to sell and stopped producing new talents that would produce new creative material for the Chruches to sing.

Why find new talent when you can just advertise a new greatest hits Christian album.

Unfortunately Mr. Nystrom is one of many victims of greed in the Christian labels that has run amock.

[IshallflywhenIdie]

Mr. Nystrom wasn't dropped because of a lack of talent or creativity, rather the label is more focused on making money the fast way through "Greatest Hits" albums.

If you don't believe me, just go to the Integrity or Maranatha! music homepages and what do you see being advertised, "World's greatest praise and worship", "WOW", "Top 25 CCLI".

Mind you, the bulk of these "Top Christian songs" were written in the 90s and 80s.

There is such a lack of talent that you don't have creativity anymore.

The radio simply refuses to play Classic Praise and Worship anymore, you usually have to go online to hear Praise and Worship of which the bulk of is from the very early 2000s, 90s and late 80s.

Turn on the radio and what do you hear from morning till evening "Chris Tomlin" and others like him being repeated over and over again.

For those of you wondering, it is not only Mr. Nystrom who had been dropped from the Christian music labels, many others have left or were also dropped.

This is unfortunate as these artists are very talented but the problem is not the artist but MODERN CHRISTIANITY.

A few years ago, a new trend started in which the dominant Christian music is the one that is the closest to the popularmusic of the world.

It somehow became uncool to sing Praise and Worship and of course the radio went along.

By the way, before you condemn me (like you did Mr. Nystrom) for being angry, anger is not a sin.

Jesus was angry and drove the money changers from the Temple, so lets not go there.

You should apologize for fault finding and spreading a false sense of humilty.

Secondly the reason Mr. Nystrom is no longer heard of is because "modern Christians" refuse to listen to classic Praise and Worship anymore.

Thats why you hear only popular Christian music on the radio now a days.

You sir are the WORST KIND OF HYPOCRITE.

It is hypocrisy like this that drives non-Christians away.

You were simply looking for something to condemn him and be negative about.

You are actually like the Pharisee who said in the Temple "Lord I am not like this man or others who do bad things..."

Stop looking for something to condemn in others.

Mr Nystrom said absolutely nothing wrong.

He is FAMOUS, thats a fact.

I am truly angered.
