I have heard so many Acapella ablums over the years since the early eighties cassettes to today's CD's, and I think this is one of their best yet! I've also heard a dozen or so really good acapella groups, secular and Christian, and these guys are my favorite. This particular album has all the elements I've come to expect from acapella, great voices, good lyrics, and catchy tunes that are uplifting, sad, and comforting. This album is special because its singers are extremely talented, and each are unique. I think what makes me fall in love this ablum the more I listen to it are the rich harmonies. I'm really happy that I bought this album.

... without the instruments! I was skeptical when I first heard this CD.

Acapella music? So outdated!

Well, I was wrong. The harmony is perfect, their voices are perfect complements to one another... who needs instruments! If there is a drawback to this album it is that it runs just under 40 minutes long, which by todays standards is a short album. But this is a band that definitely holds to the "quality not quantity" school of thought.

The album starts out strong and doesn't fade. The lyrics are powerful and with the melody that these men carry, they come across crystal clear. In addition, for those that love to "sing along" the liner has the lyrics. Their genre (as the name of the title would strongly allude to *hint hint*) is Christian, and the Christian spirit pervades all of their songs... this is an excellent Praise and Worship album, and it comes with a strong recommendation by myself!

Acappella's "Act of God" is a rich blend of voices and music that moves one's soul. This is one of the best of Acappella's many albums. Stand-out songs on this album would include "Walking That Line" in which the high tenor is the lead and does a tremendous job,"He's Gonna Let You Know," and the title song, "Act of God." For those who are looking for a Christian album that holds true to the Gospel, I cannot recommend a better group or album.

I have been an amateur musician for at least 30 years, play several instruments, have sung in glee clubs and church and symphonic choirs, enjoy many types of music including opera, classical, 40's era, etc. I am particularly fond of vocal harmonies. I own 15 to 20 titles by Acappella and while this album is not my all time favorite (We Have Seen His Glory), it is high on my play list. This group continues to amaze me with their musical excellence and creative genius, as is in evidence in this album. The lyrics from this album that pop into my mind honor God and draw me to his glory, as do most of their lyrics in most of their recordings. When I listen to their music, as it says in track #5, "I praise God instead of [them]".

This is album is perfect. This is the last album that has Dwayne Adams on it. It has a great flow to it and perfect harmonies. This album is truly one of the greatest I have ever heard, especially in recent years. It has both energy and passion.

I wish I could rate this CD higher than 5 stars, but that's the highest I can go. This CD is awesome! A must buy for any Acappella fan or anyone who just likes good Christian music. Sample the songs and you will love them. I know you will be blessed by this CD.

I would like to take the time to review the Audio cassette of Act of God, performed by the group Acappella. This is Contemporary Christian/ Gospel Music. I would say that this is the best music I have bought as a Christian. The music is very uplifting. The group has a sound similar to the secular band Boys to Men, only Acappellas lyrics are easily understood and clear. The music is filled with actual scripture, and that is more than I can say for alot of other CCM tapes I have purchased in the past. The style and tempo of this album can't help but lift your spirits, and leads you into worship. If you want to sing praises unto God, this cassette will put you on the right path. You cannot help but think about the Awesome things God has done, and praise Him for it. Every song on this tape is great. I can't say that about any other music I own. This is a must have!

Much different than the classic "Rescue" sound, but still an enjoyable blend of different voices. Keep on singing!

This is most likely the best a capella cd I have ever heard. It is absolutely beautiful. I love "Act of God" and "They Praised God". They are my personal favorites. I love this cd and I highly recommend you purchase this cd.

Another masterpiece from this group. Each new release gets better and better. After listening to the songs and picking up the rythym, the words really start standing out. Each song has an unbelieveable message behind it straight from scripture. When I'm having a bad day, this CD easily brightens it. It's a must for Christians and anybody who likes the acappella style of music. It's a Godly group who sacrifices so much to touch many lives from all realms of the globe.
