Times may change, and fashions may come and go, but Christianity will always have its music, be it chants, hymns, Christian rock, or good old-fashioned gospel. A contemporary R&B-influenced form of the latter is convincingly presented here by relative newcomers, the Georgia-based Bishop Eddie L. Long and his New Birth Total Praise Choir, whose mission is, as their name implies, to sweep away all doubt and sorrow with full-throated force.
You can't encounter SPIRIT & TRUTH without being moved by the ensemble's passionate sincerity, over the course of a set that moves from the hypnotically percussive "Christ in Me," through the downbeat "Thank You for Your Grace," to the quietly moving finale of "Anything Is Possible." The worship theme is enhanced by the percolating R&B arrangements, which provide an energizing backdrop to the choir's message of praise. But neither snappy arrangements nor the presence of high-profile guests--including Winans alum Vanessa Bell Armstrong and gospel heavy-hitter Kevin Bond--can distract from the choir, led by Bishop Long, whose music is the physical manifestation of their faith. Their soaring voices dominate throughout, ... Bishop Eddie L Long Spirit & Truth Songs Spirit & Truth Music Review Average Rating: (3.7 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews Soul-Savin' and Tight! You don't have to be a Baptist to be blessed by this project...just seeking God.I requested my favorite radio station to play "Thank You For Your Grace" on my birthday as I was on my way to work.It's my testimony.It's so POWERFUL! But then so is "O Give Thanks".A true anthem sung with so much fervor and excitement!After hearing it, who WOULDN'T want to serve a God like that?!Oh, and the bass section showed out. Now,I don't know if the drummer was going for the nailing-to-the-cross effect in "Christ In Me", and they advise drummers not to let your right hand know what your left hand is doing (or something like that); but that's what I heard the second time I listened to it.And ya know, when Jesus Christ was nailed to the cross, all of our hang-ups, bad attitudes,any and everything that could hinder us from being effective witnesses, was nailed to the cross with Him, so that after we accept Him, if we allow Him, the only thing that people will see IS "Christ In Me". I was truly blessed by the entire cd, and you will be, too. Submitted by yolanda (Little Rock, AR USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
