Giving up TV and mainstream radio is a great thing!
Yes, I agree, unplugging from media was one of the best things I ever did for my contemplative life.
I never used to listen to Christian music, but a few years ago while I was driving a rental car far away from home, I accidentally heard a cool song on a Christian radio station and it started from there.
Yes, I avoided Christian radio like the plague because Christianity as it has been known since the second Naicean Counsel has been seriously naive, and dogmatic. However, I volunteered in the Prescott Salvation Army kitchen for a few years and the kitchen manager used to play Christian radio the whole time, which is when I happily discovered that contemporary Christian music has matured significantly in the last decade or so.
Then I developed COPD and was stuck in my motor home on an air purifier almost 24/7 which just about made me crazy until a friend gave me a radio. Then I started listening to NPR and Christian radio and developed an appreciation for some of the music.
