"I normally write reviews of Christian books, not of Christian music. This new group however, has gained my attention and my admiration. Recently while visiting Louisville, KY and listening to CD demos in a bookstore, I tried this one. I immediately tried to buy a new copy for myself, but learned the store was sold out!Christian music with a good sound is easy to find, but Christian music with a good sound AND a strong, Scriptural message is very rare. The lyrics of these songs, all written by Mike Weaver, are what impress me most. The track "In Christ" comes straight from Philippians 4:13. "Friend Like You" speaks of God's providence and grace. "One and Only" reminds me of Psalm 139. "Being in Love with You" speaks most deeply to Christian workers like me who constantly are tempted to place the work of the Lord ahead of the Lord of the work. The Scriptural basis of this track is Jesus' visit to the home of Martha and Mary.If this group continues its present course, I wouldn't be surprised to see a ministry emerge with the diversity of a Steven Curtis Chapman and the depth of a Twila Paris. Don't let the group's unique name discourage you -- this CD is one to own!"

Unbelievable

"My biggest criticism of christian music is that often the musicianship is not up to par with their secular counterparts. I guarantee you will be blown away with this group on two fronts; the music is incredible, and the songs are well-written and meaningful. I have seen comparisons to Dave Matthews Band, my personal favorite, I instead liken them to Edwin McCain, if they draw any comparison at all.This cd has taken the place of Third Day - Offerings as my number 1 christian cd, and is top 5 of all my cds. You must have this in your collection."

A MUST-OWN!

"The previous reviewer described this band as a "hidden treasure" and I could not agree more. I stumbled upon them by accident, as the opening band for FFH, my favorite group. I was pleasantly surprised to hear songs of deep, spiritual meaning and great musicianship. Soon after the concert I bought the CD and it has become a favorite of both myself and my wife. Too many favorites to list here but suffice to say this is an album you will enjoy listening to from beginning to end. I would highly encourage you to purchase this CD as I believe the words will add meaning to your spiritual life."
