My name is Sarah, I am from the UK and I enjoy reading, writing and baking. I am also a Christian, so seeing all of the Abrahamic religions (amongst other religions) highlighted and discussed here at GOTD Books is very interesting.

BTW, I am also curious which sort of Christian you identify as. Are there particular denominations or traditions that most inspire you? I was raised Methodist and still have some appreciation for that church. Though I've lately learned a lot from my Catholic friends and of course the Jewish influences I've taken in over the last decade have really shaped my perspective a TON too.

You don't have to be worried about your taste in things. Sure it changes over time, but you will still remember the music you like now fondly years later, if only for nostalgia reasons.

You like what you like. That's okay. I remember being stuck up about music when I was a teenager, until I realized that the type of music someone likes has little to no bearing on their character.

Kenny's a real good guy, I've known him for years.

Kenny you should follow Sarah's Substack "Letters from the Train." She's just delightful and has so much potential as a writer.

We need more young people’s perspectives on music too! Who are your favorites we should check out?

I'm really into worship music at the moment; the OGs like Kirk Franklin, CeCe Winans, Marvin Sapp. The newer ones are also really great; Maverick City (even though they get a bad rep sometimes for no reason?), Lecrae and DOE.

Have you encountered yet my 3 favorites from my Evangelical Christian days? I still have much affection for them: Newsboys, DC Talk, and Jars of Clay?
