NRTeam Christian Music Album Reviews At NewReleaseTuesday.com http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/ When at Costco, I picked up Glenn Beck's newest book Arguing With Idiots: How To Stop Small Minds And Big Government (Simon Schuster, Inc., 299 pgs). The style of writing and formatting of the book seemed perfectly written for my short attention span. Beck's funny and engaging style kept me laughing through every chapter and learning some great things in the process. I especially liked the chapters titled "In Defense of Capitalism," "America's Energy Future," and "Universal Health Care." It was a fun read and something you can pick up for a few moments do a little reading and[...] March-16-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14063&user_id=51260 Really good music, just not quite my style. A lot better than I originally thought it would be, shes a really good singer, the songs could be a little more upbeat, though.[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14062&user_id=51504 I absolutely would recommend this album! You can tell that these guys truly love God. Of course it includes the hit single "Forgiven" but there are so many great songs it is extremely difficult to choose a favorite. Now they also have a deluxe edition which features 5 acoustic songs including Forgiven. It also includes a very cute song about lead singer Matt Hammitt's family called Lead Me. One of my personal favorites was Keep My Heart Alive. I loved the lyrics "Take these empty hallelujahs, fill my lungs again, cuz I wanna sing and I wanna mean it, I[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14061&user_id=50650 This review has been reprinted on NRT with permission from Rapzilla.com 777 (Mark of the Peace) is a wonderfully unique album that draws on influences outside the sphere of the usual Christian rap album. The production is inspired, it drawing on a multitude of instruments and beats that would feel out of place with anyone else on the track. Dwayne Tryumf draws the unusual elements, from strange samples to flutes, with ease through his skilled lyricism and his style. Dwayne Tryumf is a Jamaican by way of Britain and his accent is amazingly subtle, which should not be an[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14060&user_id=51285 Since releasing Say It Loud on Sparrow records Sanctus Real has been a consistent voice is CCM. Hits like "Things Like You (Everyone's Everything)," "I'm Not Alright," and "We Need Each Other" have endeared pop lovers who enjoy the eternal prospective offered by the band. However while even I have attracted to the band solid pop rock fused with strong lyrics Sanctus Real has been on a slide (especially with their latest album, the dud, We Need Each Other). However with the group's fourth fifth album, Pieces Of A Real Heart, they intend to make that "had" over "has." The Face[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14059&user_id=347 Revival's Golden Key by Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron yes, the 80's teen star (Bridge-Logos Publishers, 234 pgs) only took me a couple of days to read. In typical Ray Comfort style, with lots of humor, gripping illustrations, and fast paced writing, he accurately describes the horrible fruit of modern methods of evangelism and challenges Christians to return to the method of sharing the gospel given in the New Testament by Jesus and the Apostles, namely, law to the proud and grace to the humble. I was already familiar with Ray Comfort's ministry and writings, so this book[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14058&user_id=51260 t did not take me long to read through Safe In The Arms of God: Truth From Heaven About the Death of a Child by John MacArthur (Thomas Nelson, 171 pgs). It was a quick read which was originally sparked by a series of messages I heard on Grace To You, MacArthur's daily radio teaching program. The messages did much to inform my thinking on the subject and the book enabled me to work my way through the theology behind this issue. Before hearing the messages and reading the book, I have to admit, I lacked an understanding of just[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14057&user_id=51260 I read the entire book, Twelve Ordinary Men by John MacArthur (W Publishing Group, 198 pgs) in only two days in preparation for preaching through the last half of John 1 which tells of Jesus' first encounter with five men who would later be His disciples (Andrew, Peter, Philip, Nathanael, and one unnamed). It was a fascinating treatment of all that the gospels reveal about the twelve disciples. MacArthur brought together everything the New Testament taught about each of those men in a fascinating "harmony of the gospels" style treatment of their lives, ministry and eventual deaths. A great book[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14055&user_id=51260 I just love this album, I do. With the coolness only Matthew West can deliver. I love the tracks, "The Lie", "The End" and of course "Happy". Although together just go out, and buy the album![...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14054&user_id=49928 This review has been reprinted on NRT with permission from Rapzilla.com You know Da T.R.U.T.H. You know Ambassador. You know Flame. But, Cross Movement records hip-hop duo Everyday Process, comprised of Iz Real and Mac the Doulos, has managed to elude the attention of many listening to Christian hip-hop. They've shown up as guests on other artist's tracks. They even released a full-length debut a couple of years ago, The Process of Illumination and Elimination, that went relatively unnoticed by most who bob their heads and dip their shoulders. Well, with Outtadisworld, you can expect all of that[...] March-15-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14036&user_id=51285 I love this book because it has realistic characters. Anyone knows at least one person who is like a character in the books-an annoying flirt, a seemingly rude and arrogant hottie, an embarrassing mom, an unfortunate friend, etc. Jane's sharp and biting wit makes the story an extra winner in my book, though some of the "flowery" language may scare off someone who doesn't regurarly read classics.[...] March-14-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14053&user_id=50213 Love Adie's new CD. Nice, spirit filled praise and worship to our God. Makes you want to listen to it over and over. She shares her great love and passion for Jesus. All I need is you is a favorite. I will be buying this soon![...] March-14-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14052&user_id=51261 Teens are always listening to stuff like beyonce, kesha, black eye peas and such Britt Nicole's songs say hey christian music is awesome =)so YAY BRITT you go girl[...] March-14-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14051&user_id=21628 I'm never dissapointed in the quality of Hawk nelsons music, but this album is better than Hawk Nelson Is My Friend and is just as good if not better than their older releases. Always uplifting and fun to listen to.[...] March-14-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14050&user_id=51504 His music never ceases to amaze me in its quality and meaning. What great songs! I can listen to this any time of day, im always in the mood because the music is just so inspirational. Keep up the good work![...] March-13-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14049&user_id=51504 kk, so i can't even put in words how proud i am to own this cd....and that's simply because it's totally FANTASTICAL!! simply put, although most of the songs on this CD don't seem to have a HUGE amount of energy when you first listen to em, they're honestly RLY great!! i just find that their rly catchy lyrics and great sound makes them all AMAZING...like, seriously: EVERY SINGLE SONG on this CD is great to listen to!! this is why it's pretty hard to decide which is my fave...probably "long ago" but like i mentioned, all the rest are awesome[...] March-13-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14048&user_id=42362 With House of Heroes latest release, a gift of unexpected surprises is opened. While "Silent Night" is just a re-packaged single previously released in 2009, the other two songs are extremely well written. "All I Want for Christmas Is You" comes from Mariah Carey's songwriting, but HoH makes it their own with a pop-rock bounce with front man Tim Skipper's vocals challenging Carey's own. "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" takes an acoustic rock flair with screaming chorus and a raging rock bridge. While only three songs, this EP doesn't disappoint.[...] March-13-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14047&user_id=42381 [MAIN REVIEW] Passion: Awakening was recorded live in Atlanta this past January with more than 22,000 college-age students in attendance. I eagerly wait for each new Passion worship collection, From the beginning Passion268 has been rooted in the confession of Isaiah 26:8: "Yes Lord, walking in the way of Your truth we wait eagerly for You, for Your name and renown are the desire of our souls." As a result, Passion seeks to gather college and university students across the nation and around the world to seek the face of God, asking Him to ignite in our souls a passionate[...] March-13-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14002&user_id=16320 This cd is his best ever. If you're looking to get into Matthew West, get this one. It's got all you could ever want in a cd: great writing, great vox, and great music.[...] March-12-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14046&user_id=42381 Addison Road put out one of the most impressive debuts with this self titled album. With songs like "Sticking With You" and "It Just Takes One" that are catchy fun songs,deep songs such as "What Do I Know of Holy" and "Hope Now" that make us really think about how Mighty God really is,and one of my personal favorite messages is found in "All That Matters" and "Casualities" and that's to remember to not get caught up in what's not important,but to remain rooted in Christ. The mixture of brilliant lyrics,talented musicians,and Jenny's awesome voice,every song is made unique and[...] March-12-2010 http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/userprofile_reviewssinglepost.php?review_id=14045&user_id=22109
