This CD starts with an introduction from Pastor Brian Gregory of the Greater Faith Center who points out the undeniable fact that Chris Bethel was born to sing. South Carolina-based Chris' third album contains 10 tracks focused purely on God. "Everyday" recorded live at the Covenant Love Family Church in North Carolina is a passion filled track that manages to lift your spirits. Rather oddly, the track is quickly followed by a slower version of the same song, now called "I'm Yours Lord Everyday". There is a welcomed appearance from Kristian Dentley from the gospel group Take 6 who sings with Chris on "In His Presence". Chris has also recorded his own version of the Hillsong favourite "This Is The Air I Breathe". He manages to hold his own on this number and proves that he is a top rate vocalist while the fast paced "High Places" is also attention-grabbing.
