Are you serious? I didn't know such a thing existed.
I like polkas (being 3/4 Polish myself), but I can't imagine any with an inspirational message!
I tend to think that polkas were given to us merely for entertainment!
If there is such a thing, pray tell, who performs it? Are there any "Christian" polka bands out there?

Well, I do remember a friend of mine buying his first car, a huge old powder blue Cadillac with an eight track in it. One night as he was driving us all around on important errands such as toilet papering various houses, we discovered an eight track still in one of little storage consoles. I don't remember the name of the group, but the song may have been Christian. It was a polka, and the only lyrics I remember were, "In heaven there is no beer, that's why I drink it here, and when I go up there, my friends will be drinking all my beer."

I haven't listened to polka much, but I have a lot of songs with accordion in them.

So if it is just instrumental polka, does that make a difference?
Blindlemon-You said something I thought was interesting and I don't want to get into the obvious debate that we all have had a billion times...but you stated "I tend to think that polkas were given to us merely for entertainment." That is my exact view of CCM. Christian enterainment for the masses.

Polkas strike me as dance music, music heard at weddings and parties...at least in my experience. Just good clean fun, for the most part.
I cannot imagine anyone setting serious lyrics to a polka, it's just not built for that sort of thing.
I wish I owned a few good polka CD's. There is a station in Chicago that plays polkas on Sunday afternoon, and I tune in every once in a while.
Anyway, I agree with the point about CCM being Christian entertainment for the masses!
..but as regards "Christian" polka music? Probably the closest you would get to that would be polkas performed by Christians, but I don't think there is any out there with Christian lyrics or moral themes...
...unless you think "Who Stole The Kiska?" is a tune directed against thievery!
Blessings, Blind Lemon
