 Brilliant..& The End of an Era May 5, 2009

This is the last album with Peter at the helm (at least vocally) and I must say it is one of their best. I've been a Newsboys fan since Not Ashamed way back in '92, and I just never wanted to bring myself to the fact that one day it would have to end. No, the Newsboys aren't over, but now that Michael Tait is taking over as lead singer, it feels like its over. To me Peter IS the Newsboys. Anyway as for this record its all Peter and its wonderful. The continued collaboration with Steve Taylor shines through again with great lyrics and the production value has never been better. In all a great album that does not disappoint.

With their un-mistakable style and flair, the Newsboys once again deliver a worship tune that hits the mark squarely in the middle.
The title track, In The Hands Of God, from the first verse, puts into perspective the fact that what we cannot do this on our own. 2 Peter 3-11 (MSG) says it best: 'Since everything here today might well be gone tomorrow, do you see how essential it is to live a holy life? Daily expect the Day of God, eager for its arrival. The galaxies will burn up and the elements melt down that day--but we'll hardly notice. We'll be looking the other way, ready for the promised new heavens and the promised new earth, all landscaped with righteousness.'
There is no better place to put our hope, trust and faith than in the Hands of God. 'Hands that are mighty to deliver, giving us freedom'! 'O you certainly are amazing God and I thank you!!!
Awesome CD! New style, same results June 5, 2009

This CD is great. I will miss Peter's vocals as he just has a distinct voice. 10 Tracks, I was hoping for more, but this CD does not disappoint. "No Grave" is hard hitting beats, with an awesome message. My favorite is "Lead me to the Cross"
A little bit of everything June 14, 2009

The sound is a bit more traditional here than the slick & creative Go, and it's good!
Peter's amazing 25-year career as a Newsboys singer gets capped off here. It has a little bit of everything we're used to: pop/rock vs. worship; good humor vs. seriousness; early days vs. the future. In my opinion, Peter really *is* the Newsboys, with his distinctive voice, personality, and creative vision. He's the ideal frontman.
-The Way We Roll. One of my Top 3 here. Newsboys as a new band hitting the road; it's great pop-rock fun!
-No Grave. The most experimental track here, it's tremendously solid yet different from typical Newsboys.
-This is Your Life. A common sense track emphasizing what life's all about.
-Glorious. A great worship track that could easily fit on He Reigns: The Worship Collection.
-In the Hands of God. One of my Top 3 here. It's great! The first single released from this CD.
-The Upside. Positive & uplifting- I feel better about everything everytime I listen to this.
-My Friend Jesus. Good humor; it sounds a little like an Audio Adrenaline song to me in certain respects.
-Lead Me To The Cross. Another great worship track. Very heartfelt. The maturity of this band is certainly evident here.
-Dance. One of my Top 3 here. It's probably the single track I've listened to most. I love it!
-RSL 1984. I like it! A great reflection on a 25-year period- 1984 to 2009.
Since Peter will still be making a few appearances throughout '09, his career might best be described as being from 1985-2010. From Read All About It to In the Hands of God, Peter Furler's stateside career has been amazing. I can barely describe how inspirational this group has been to me. Peter, Jody, Oinch, Squiz... and of course, Phil Joel, Paul Coleman, Steve Taylor, John James, and now Michael Tait... the Newsboys represent the very best in contemporary Christian Music!
Great Stuff June 16, 2009

As is typical with the Newsboys, this is a top notch album. It features a great sound, energy, and a solid Christian message.
The songs range from lighthearted fun to serious praise and worship. There are lighter pop and more intense rock offerings. There are really no weak songs on this CD. My favorite is 'In the Hands of God', but there are many other standouts.
This is almost a must buy for any fan of the group. I suspect that most others will enjoy it as well.
