Despite this having a touch of grunge ("Give It All To God") and alternative rock ("Come And Change") it's mainly acoustic folk rock on most of the tracks here. There are problems, David's voice wobbles on "Take Me" while the lyrics on "Jonah" sound like 6th form devotional poetry. Some nice production touches from Kev Jamieson, the guy who produced the first two Paul Oakley albums, yet overall this is an average album by a singer/songwriter still trying to find a distinctive niche of his own.

Number 4 "For the Least" is an outstanding song. It confronts Christians about their attitude towards Israel. It challenges them to move from an academic and prophetical mentality to a decisive pro-active mindset. Whilst I haven't really gotten into the other songs, "for the Least" needs to 'get out there' and challenge the 'church people'.
