Welcome to the newest addition to CCMmagazine.com...Best Thing I Heard Today

Christian music has never been better than it is right now! The shear number of artists & genres as well as in the quality of the music across all genres is amazing. It's an impossibility for any one fan, expert or fan media outlet to hear and cover all of it.

No matter what genre is your favorite, chances are there is a group or song that you have not discovered yet.

It's our intention for this page to help you discover something new that the CCM staff and contributors think is the "best thing we heard today."

This Donald Lawrence song, “He Heard My Cry” (featuring Sir the Baptist and Arnetta Murrill-Crooms), is truly the Best Thing I Heard Today. If you are a Gospel fan or just like a good song from any genre, give it a listen.

I don't usually put in much time in the office on a Saturday, but today as I am catching up on some work in the office I opened Spotify's Ultimate Christian Alternative list. About or 10 songs in I heard the Zach Winters song "Ain't No Grave" for the first time. I am definitely going to need to listen to more stuff from this guy.
