This CD has all the latest worship songs by the lead worshippers that God has been raising up lately in the Christian music scene. A lot of the songs on this 2-disc album will be familiar and it will be easy to sing along with. Notable worship leaders include Tim Hughes, David Crowder, Chris Tomlin, and Matt Redman. A lot of the newer songs we do at Acts Christian Fellowship are included in this album and I'm certain that it will help anyone who wants to familiarize themselves with the worship at Acts. It is by far the best compilation CD I've heard so far in terms of a worship CD, and it has a good balance of all kinds of different songs to keep the worshipper interested for a long time. This diverse CD includes rock 'n roll worship, celtic worship, contemporary worship, and acoustic worship. Although a good portion of the album is in the acoustic/electric guitar-led worship style, it was definitely made with a lot of listeners in mind, resulting in a wonderful, worshipful grab-bag of favourites.
Some songs that will be more familiar in the beginning are Enough, Here I Am to Worship, Majesty (Here I Am), Undignified, Forever, Better is One Day, Beautiful One and Blessed Be Your Name, among others. The new songs that I believe God has been blessing His people with in a big way are all of the David Crowder and Chris Tomlin songs, Be Lifted Up by Paul Oakley, and You Alone by the Passion band among others.
Even the songs we have sung often at Acts Fellowship might sound very different when we hear them led by the original writers of the songs.
This compilation album is a very up-to-date CD in terms of being new and fresh, yet it is familiar enough that you can just worship comfortably from start to finish without having to flip on your remote to search for your favorite songs. This album is just easy to worship to, and it will benefit those people who love to praise in their cars or offices with great songs of worship.

“Bible-believing Christians certainly acknowledge that God is all-powerful. They use, without hesitation, the theological term “omnipotent” when describing God. However, we in [North] America sometimes have a difficult time bringing a practical application of this belief into our daily lives.
