Evanescence's divergence from faith just helps to illustrate the challenges the Christian rock stars have to face, making P.O.D's unwavering path to success and their inspirational message even more amazing. Other bands like Creed may contain Christian recording artists, but this doesn't necessarily mean that they are a Christian rock group.

These groups embrace their faith through their positive lyrics and their lifestyles, but they also make sure not to "push" their faith on anyone - this way no one feels alone.
