published in July 1978, as a printed magazine. It has been owned by Salem since 1999.

Then in May 2007, the name's meaning was changed to "Christ. Community. Music." The editor explained that the term "contemporary Christian music" was dated and marginalizing and that Christ, community, and music are three entirely different things — thus, the periods after each word of the acronym to show that they are not related. The editor's explanation of the name change can be found in the May 2007 issue of the magazine. </p><p>In October 2006, <i>CCM</i> launched its own <a href="/wiki/Social_networking" class="mw-redirect" title="Social networking">social networking</a> site, MyCCM. </p><p>Since its start, <i>CCM</i> has covered mainstream musical artists that mix spiritual themes with their music, including <a href="/wiki/Bob_Dylan" title="Bob Dylan">Bob Dylan</a>, <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Cash" title="Johnny Cash">Johnny Cash</a>, <a href="/wiki/T_Bone_Burnett" title="T Bone Burnett">T Bone Burnett</a>, <a href="/wiki/Victoria_Williams" title="Victoria Williams">Victoria Williams</a>, <a href="/wiki/The_Call_(band)" title="The Call (band)">The Call</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sam_Phillips_(singer)" class="mw-redirect" title="Sam Phillips (singer)">Sam Phillips</a>, <a href="/wiki/U2" title="U2">U2</a> and <a href="/wiki/Bruce_Cockburn" title="Bruce Cockburn">Bruce Cockburn</a>, as well as more mainstream <a href="/wiki/Christian_radio" title="Christian radio">Christian radio</a> artists such as <a href="/wiki/Amy_Grant" title="Amy Grant">Amy Grant</a>, <a href="/wiki/Larry_Norman" title="Larry Norman">Larry Norman</a>, <a href="/wiki/Michael_W._Smith" title="Michael W.
