'The Outcome' is a worship project that emerged from the passion of a local worship team from Church International in Louisiana. The heart of The Church Vessel is to see a continuous overflow of the presence of God rescue and restore lives all over the globe. "You Are" gives this live album a really strong start. Featuring Levi Stermer, the lyrics are focussed on God being who he says he is and that we can trust in his promises. The title track, "The Outcome (ftg Sarah Brock)", talks about the impact he will make on our lives when we spend time in the Lord's presence. "Home" is a song about finding protection and safety in God and, with a powerful vocal from Levi Stermer, rings particularly true in these troubled times. "Traded", featuring Jeanne Williams, for me is a really good song for no other reason than it really looks at the idea that what Jesus did on the cross, he did for us. "You traded your life for mine" really says it as it is and because of the simplicity of the music, it makes it seem all the more powerful.
