5-6 years ago I worked at a local Christian radio station as a saturday morning DJ/ voice over guy for commercials. Our station played the newest contemporary christian (CC) and cross-over music (COM) out at the time. COM bands usually will play CC material and some secular stuff too with the intention of getting into both christian and secular markets. I wasn't a big fan of much of it but I liked the job and thought about making a career of being a DJ with hope of scoring a spot in the morning talk slot. We played only bands the station manager perceived as true christians but he wasnt too worried about how many times they said Jesus either. Believe me the CC music world is full of out-right shysters trying to make a buck of the CC music buying public. Homosexuality, promiscuity, rock-star quality partying complete with heavy drinking, the whole mess. The common understanding around the station about the COM bands were they were not necessarily a "christian band" but they were definitely christians IN a band. So take it for what its worth. In case you haven't noticed, most of these COM bands go the generic route. Most of their lyrics are very neutral, they could be talking about God or they could not be. Some of their more secular stuff often doesn't really promote what we would call worldliness but they don't promote God either. About Need to Breath, I have a relative who was in one of these cross over bands and they did a concert with Need to Breath as they were getting their big record contract. His band dealt with them personally and had alot of interaction with them. He told me they were christ like and very professional.

The first that I can remember would be Amy Grant. I was quite young when she made that move.
