The is a live recording from the New Hope Christian Fellowship, based in Honolulu, Hawaii, who are becoming increasingly influential in modern worship circles. This offering however is not quite as polished as a Hillsong United or Jesus Culture might be but the first, second and fifth tracks on this five-song EP are all deserving of wide circulation. New Hope's female vocalist Christina Brown is particularly strong. If you've encountered their previous releases you'll already know these songs and I don't think the spoken word message adds much to the appeal of this EP. But there's no doubt that this Hawaiian megachurch have something powerful to communicate to the world Church.
