Editing Christian radio (section)

===Christian music===
Christian [[music radio]] outlets mirror [[commercial radio]] in many ways, and music in a variety of different [[music genre|genre]]s is available.  Many stations play primarily [[gospel music]], including [[Urban contemporary gospel|Black Gospel]] and [[Southern Gospel]], or [[contemporary worship music]], while others play all formats of [[contemporary Christian music]], including Christian pop, [[Christian rock]], [[Christian rap]], [[Christian country music]], and [[Christian alternative rock]]. Many artists within the [[Christian music industry]] criticize Christian radio for only playing "safe" music, and not taking enough chances on new artists, or in some cases older artists, that may not be as appealing to the largely conservative [[Gospel Music Association]].<ref name="CT-what" />

Many non-religious radio stations devote some of their weekend programming to Christian music; for example, Black Gospel programming is common on Sundays on many stations featuring the [[Urban contemporary music|urban contemporary]] format.
