Christian (often shortened to Christian music or CCM in market terms) is an umbrella genre for popular and worship-oriented music whose lyrics explicitly express the Christian faith. It blends contemporary songwriting and production with devotional intent, ranging from pop and rock to folk, country, and modern worship anthems designed for congregational singing. While rooted in centuries of church music and hymnody, the modern "Christian" genre coalesced in the late 1960s United States with the Jesus Movement, later building its own labels, radio networks, and touring circuits. Today it includes radio-friendly CCM, stadium worship, youth-focused pop/rock, and stylistic fusions that carry Christian themes into nearly every mainstream style.

Adventista (Adventist music) refers to the body of sacred and devotional music connected with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, including its Spanish- and Portuguese-language expressions in the Americas. It combines Protestant hymnody, African American gospel influence, and choral traditions with contemporary Christian pop and worship ballad aesthetics. Typical formats range from a cappella male quartets and massed choirs to small praise ensembles and orchestral-accompanied soloists. Lyrically, Adventist music centers on distinct themes such as the Second Coming (the “Advent”), Sabbath rest, redemption in Christ, creation, healthful living, and hope. The tone tends toward reverent, singable, and congregationally accessible songs—often arranged in SATB harmony or gentle pop/ballad idioms—intended for worship services, evangelistic meetings, and media ministry.
