The music had its roots in [[Jesus Music]] which sprung from the hippie [[Jesus Movement]] of the early 70s. An entire Christian music industry soon sprang up, with Christian-only artists, record labels, [[Christian radio|radio stations]], and record stores. By the 1980s, CCM was a large music industry with artists such as [[Amy Grant]] and [[Michael W. Smith]] selling millions of records.}}
