Title: Can it get more shallow?
Review: I'm sorry, but this CD is terrible. First of all the music itself is bland and processed, however, more importantly, the band's lyrics are very shallow. The Newsboys had some good early stuff, the band expressed good Christian values and advice. Now the band seems to be marketing their faith. The Newsboys said that "it's a feel-good approach to faith -- hey, everyone, come on in and join the party!" A Christian life is a life of service and submission to God's will. In 2 Tim., the Bible says that anyone who wants to live a godly life will be persecuted -- doesn't sound like much of a "party." Living for God is the most rewarding thing you will ever do, but the "feel-good, God is my pillow" view on Christianity the Newsboys sing about neglects some of the fundamental aspects of the faith.
