A variety of 14 worship songs, mostly from USA groups, with atmospheric visual effects. If you have already experienced the first three volumes, you will probably be getting tired of this format by now. Otherwise, it's worth checking out, but personally I prefer the music by itself. The songs and arrangements are strong and though the fast moving pictures of clouds flying by or flowers growing extra fast can be interesting, they can be off-putting. There is some visual creativity, but it is generally formulaic and predictable. I guess it is different for each person, but I found that switching off the screen enabled me to worship more deeply. However, this could be a nice way to introduce new music to friends in a church home-group. And the music on this DVD is worth discovering, though it is all available elsewhere. Highlights are from Dave Lubben, Lakewood and Darrell Evans. Also it's nice to hear guys like Robin Mark and Kathryn Scott from the Eastern side of the Atlantic.
