The Blonde Bombshell strikes back...
If you know Crystal Lewis then you know this is good. 'Nuff said. If not, however, you should go out and buy everything she's ever done. Now.
Unbelievable voice of God....
I am not even a very religious person and Crystal Lewis has made me believe.One Man is such a perfect life affirming song and I saw her on TBN one night singing it and was transfixed.What a beautiful soulful voice.She truly feels what she's singing and you can hear it note for note.Buy this CD and you won't be dissapointed, regardless of religious preferance.This CD stands alone as far as a R&B anyway.

Speechless....
I LOVE THIS ALBUM!!!!!!!!! It is in my opinion, the BEST CL ablum.Her vocals are very nice and the songs production has been kicked up a (few) notches since her last CD, Gold (which is also good.) A few highlights include, but are not limited to, 'I Still Believe'(w/Kirk Franklin SO AWESOME!!!), 'My Friend'(an AWESOME friendship song - better than Michael W Smiths!) , 'What a Fool...'(her vocals are top notch), 'I will Go' 'Only fools' 'change my heart' are great CL songs!I know its kinda old now, but i still love it! ...

This CD Set Is Awesome!!!
One of the best in recent years, this shows you how Praise and Worship (P&W) should be done.It is also a reason for actually increasing the amount of memory a CD can hold, because this album requires that you listen to both CDs in the set (this is a double disc CD, so if you just got one, something's wrong).The praise on the first album is great, but the worship experience on the second CD is still one of the best in my recent memory.It starts with 'Friend of God' and remains riveting for ten different songs that prepare you for 'Going To Another Level,' which ends this CD on a high note.Basically, the sequence of songs on this CD set is brilliant, the songs chosen for this project are quite appropriate for the theme, and the artists stay within the framework of the concept so well that the CD can be enjoyed with no skipping (Bishop Garlington's parts included).There is no standout great song on this CD that demands more attention than any other, and there are no poor songs that seem to be filler.This is a great ALBUM, a CD set that many claim to make but few have accomplished.Every song blends with the next and makes it better, and the whole is definitely more than the sum of it parts.If you have time to experience the whole of this praise and worship offering to the Lord, GET THIS CD SET.It is extremely driveable and it ushers you right in to the front pew for some much needed P&W.

You need to buy this album
The man is has a ministry in music. He goes from praise to worship to adoration to you having God cleansing and healing you in this two album cd. Walk no run to the store and buy it now

GET YOURSELF TOGETHA
If you are a member of the Impact Movement I know that you are making some noise over this CD.I heard Isreal in concert last month at our annual conference and I was SO BLESSED. I literally had to step away from the crowd and get on my knees and then on my face just talk to God (okay it was more like loud sobs, but God understood).Israel has a wonderful testimony and New Breed brings life, praise, vitality, and sincere love for the Lord to this ministry.I would not sleep on ANY of his CD's.Don't think twice, just order. ...

Awesome!
This CD is absolutely incredible!I'm so impressed with John, Jared and Glenn.God is using them big time!

Wow!
I heard this album before I ever attended a Desperation conference and at the time I wasn't very impressed.And then I attended the conference...WOW!!!I don't know what it is about the conference but it causes the songs to really make since.Every song is a simply incredible worship experience.My personal favorites are "Ready Now" and "Who You Are" (and luckily these two songs are right next to each other).

Incredible Worship
This CD is amazing and really should put Desperation on the map.Songs like "Who You Are" and "Ready Now" need to be on repeat everywhere you go.The DVD that comes with it is great and insightful into their songs and what they are about.Pick it up and listen through it a couple of times.I think you will really enjoy it- ...

Couldn't say it better myself :)
After glancing over the reviews, I see that we are not the only ones who feel that this CD will never get old. I, too, have been playing it for years. Wendy, Kathryn, etc are such annointed singers and musicians, it is hard to deny Christ's spirit leading them. I will never get sick of this CD. It is truly a classic :)
Classic & Intimate Worship
A few reasons why this CD has become a classic are that it represents simplicity, raw & intimate worship with a deep theological perspective.
Still Hungry
I got this CD when it came out in 1999.I still listen to it.It is raw God centered worship.Listening to it will make you Hungry for Him and falling on your knees in worship.Buy this CD and hear the songs sung by the original writers.You may have heard the songs on Michael W Smith's cd's Phillips, Craig, & Dean and others but this one will blow you away! ...

This is the best Carman CD.
I'm listening to this very CD right now and it is great!My favorite songs are,heart of a champion,Jesus period,a witch's invitation,who's in the house,Jericho,now's the time,mission 3:16,America again,I've been delivered,Satan,bite the dust!,r.i.o.t,addicted to Jesus,ther is a God,sunday school rock,no monsters,and the champion.I would recommend this CD over any other Carman CD.(If you bought this you would not have to buy any other Carman CD because this CD has songs from almost all of his CDs)Thanks for reading this!

I loved this cd!!
After checking out this cd from the public library, I could not wait to buy it. My favorite songs are: "Heart of a Champion"--for the uplifting lirics; "My story"-- for the "hawaian-like rithm. I am not embarrased to admit that when I heard this song I just got up and danced for about an hour. The song that touched my heart was "I promise"--A wonderful song to play at a wedding. Honestly, I liked most of the songs. I f you don't have the cd, just get it. You will not be disapointed.

Heart of a champion by a champion.
Carman has a passion for Jesus and his desire to evangelize through his music is wonderful.God has gifted him with a beautiful voice and a great talent for writing awesome lyrics and he is using it for the glory of God.Read more

ANOINTED WORSHIP
I first heard skillet on a compilation cd. The song made me weep. I read a review for this live cd calling it anointed, and I fully agree! This cd is dangerous to listen to while driving because the desire to lift your hands to the Lord and close your eyes is so strong! I love the live atmosphere, too. I've loaned it to someone new to Christian rock and he loves it, too. Yes, buy it and praise our Almighty God!

Incredible experience!
Very few times have I listened to a cd that impacted me as much as this one. This cd is annointed by the Holy Spirit. This cd explodes with energy and enthusiam for God, you realize when you hear the instruments and the singers that their hearts are in one accord, straining to show their love to their Creator. The full impact however, will not his you until you listen to the 7th track, "Angels Fall Down." The only time a song has ever come as close to the imapct this one had was Darrel Evans "I am in Love With You" from his Freedom album. If you want an incredible worship experience captured in a plastic disc, here it is. ... Read more

My favorate
The 2000 Wow Gospel cd seems to be my favorate of the series.I have been blessed -richly by the album.It has been my morning devotional cd almost every day since it was released.

Spiritually Uplifting
All I can say is that this is a spiritually uplifting CD. I may end up buying a second one to keep, as within the one week period I have owned it, I have played it so much -- play it to sleep everynight. A real blessing!You need to listen to the CD to understand the High Praise.

All I Can say is "WoW"
This cd set has every conseiveable kind of varaition on gospel music. From the quiet and calm "Who do you love" to the spritual uplifting, "Oh Happy Day" I was instantly pleased with the amount of varietyon the cd. Would recommend it to anyone whom wants or needs a soul moving,foot tapping, spritual uplifting kind of music. ... Read more

from canada with love
Why Brian Doerksen isn't better known in this country is beyond me.It's lucky our church music director has a broad reach. we do all the first five tracks, track 10 and 14."to-day," "Everlasting," and "The River," are my favorites on this album"the River," especially, puts me in mind of Michael Martin Murphey at his best. What a treatment he could give this one if he wanted to.If I knew there was music like this back in the '80s, I might not have wobbled down the road to destruction for as long as I did before seeing how far out of bounds I was wobbling. This is one of the CD's I play when I need to remind myself to keep to the straight and narrow, and not do what's easier, and deadlier.

Buy the DVD and get a lot more
Brian is a top artist with a warm hart for his Lord - no doubt about it. Personally I prefer the live DVD, which gets you a lot more then the songs. The DVD was recorded nearby his home town, and before the final song Brian invites his family to appear on stage, which is cool. To top it off, the final song (Today - reprise) Brian sings together with his Dad.
An ambitious, passionate work of art
Until the last few years, Doerksen was mostly known for penning such brilliant worship classics as Refiner's Fire and Halleluiah You're Love Is Amazing, both sung in many evangelical Christian churches. He only stepped into the performing spotlight with You Shine, an excellent live-in-concert worship recording made in Ireland a few years ago.

The whole family loves it!
I bought this CD when my daughter was four months old. I turn it on if I want her to fall asleep in the car. It works every time because it is soothing and peaceful. At the same time, I love to listen to myself, and my husband loves it as well. A great CD all around. ... Read more

Best United Album's Yet
I have of all United's albums : Everyday, Best Friend, King Of Majesty, To The Ends Of The Earth, More Than Life, Look To You and United We Stand; this album is the best one they have so far out of all of those. I was kinda dissapointed with United We Stand, it does have some good songs but it's like more of the same, Look To You is my all time favorite, More Than Life comes in second. This album has got like the best United songs : Salvation Is Here, Look To You, All I Need Is You, ALL FOR LOVE/SHOUT UNTO GOD, There Is Nothing Like, Til I See You, etc... All the songs are awesome, I recommend this album to anyone who likes youth worship. Mia Fieldes writes like the best worship songs (Always, All For Love, Higher), all of those are so awesome. Even though United We Stand is the latest album, doesn't even compare to Look To You, because even though it has good songs like Kingdom Come, None But Jesus, still doesnt take the place of that. So I give this album a 5/5.

Brings you right into the presence of the Lord
Most awesome worship CD and DVD. Two for the price of one. I had another of Hillsong's CD's, but this is by far my most favorite. It's the youth band, and our church liked the songs so well they have put them into the worship each service.
B est United Live CD yet
I have all but one of the United Live CD's and this one is my favorite.The songs are passionate and powerful, you can't help but worship when listening.The DVD of the concert is one of the best I've seen for an album.It includes performances of 6 songs and the quality is incredible.It displays in 16:9 and has fantastic audio, I enjoy turning on the DVD to watch and listen to the music at home.

Hillsong's 2nd Xmas Album
If you like Hillsong, you probably know how wonderful they produce their studio albums and if you like Christmas music this album will be a plus. I personally think their first album is a little bit better simply because they did more classis carols that I like but this album is by no means bad.

Revival in the Land - Carman
Without a doubt, Carman is a great songwriter/singer and the fact that he appeals to the younger generation is an added bonus. Although I am in my middle sixties I enjoy his music and have several of his other albums, including "The Heart of a Champion", "Passion for Praise", "The Standard" and his awesome rendition of well known hymns and choruses on his album "I Surrender All".I recommend anything that he has written as worthy of adding to your Christian collection of music.

Classic Carman
This was one of my first Christian albums I ever bought.And it is still one of my favorites.Although "The Ressureciton Rap" sounds kind of hoaky, there are many bright spots on this album.God's Got An Army isa fun song.Saved, Delivered, and Healed has a great message, and ThisBlood still practically makes me cry when I think of what Jesus wentthrough for us.I cannot reccomend this album highly enough.Get ittoday! ...

Who Says Christian Music Can't Kick ***?
If you never get any other Worship cd ever again in your life and could only keep one, this is it my friends.Just a great, heartfelt, powerful performance and one cd that I've not gotten tired of after all this time.To me that's the test of a great album in any genre let alone Gospel.
This is a GREAT recording
This is the first time I've taken time to write a review...and it's because this is one of the best recordings I've ever heard. Simply beautiful!
I have listen to Baloche's album "First love" and I did like, so I decided to buy this new Cd... I was amazed by the intimicy of the lyrics and the fantastic work done by the musiciens! I knew lots of versions of some musics but... This album is the best! You really can fall in praise and intimate worship by listening to this work... Are you "near" God? Are you "far" away? This Cd can be a help.... ... Read more
