At the risk of getting a "not helpful" rating, I am not going to actually review the entire album, which has been done countless times on the regular album. Suffice to say it's one of the best Christian albums I've ever heard.

What I wanted to say that the DVD on this edition overlaps the Casting Crowns, Live From Atlanta DVD. There is only one new clip on this DVD, which is called "The Casting Crowns Story." It's about five minutes long. It's interesting and it's also why I bought this edition of the album instead of the regular one, even though I already had the live CD. So just FYI, if you already have the live CD and the album...you may not want this. For what it's worth.

This album is a true blessing. Casting Crowns has a knack for writing songs that every Christian can realte to at one time or another. Songs like Who Am I, Here I Go Again, What if His People Pray and so many others are incredible. Production is tight, vocals are good, and lyrically sound. And this package has a DVD which is not as extensive as I would have like to see, but it does give a good background introduction to Casting Crowns. I recommend this CD.

I gave this to a friend for his birthday and he loved it. I was really happy that it got here so quick! I would deffinetly buy this agian.

If you are expecting to get a CD with the DVD as a bonus DO NOT BUY THIS!!! The CD side has some type of copy protection that keeps computers, Media Centers, and some newer cd/dvd players from recognizing disk. Forget about fair use or using this on a portable player. I've bought hundreds of CDs and this is the only one I can't play. I'd give this a zero star or lower if Amazon allowed it.
