Editorial Reviews

Jack Hayford, Pastor of Church on the Way

"To hear these sibling voices sing of their Risen Lord is to almost feel His touch."

About the Artist

Comprised of Annie Herring Nelly Greisen and Matthew Ward the sibling vocal trio known as 2nd Chapter of Acts was one of the Jesus movement’s greatest treasures - the very rare example of a group with a completely unique sound and the native talent to outshine all secular competitors. Best know for their charismatic Easter Song its message of "Hear the bells ringing, their singing that we can be born again!" became an anthem of Jesus music.

Annie was the primary songwriter but Nelly and Matthew made additional writing contributions. Characterized by amazing vocals, angelic harmonies, complex and interesting songwriting and passionate lyrical messages, the group left their mark on audiences all over the world in their 20 years of concert touring.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good voices, nice variety of songs., January 3, 2005

This is my very favorite 2nd Chapter of Acts CD. The songs range from worship ("Bread of Life", "I've Got a Break in my Heart", "He's My Source") to pop-rock ("Here I Go", "Rise Up and Take a Bow", "Don't Understand It"). But don't worry: none of it's TOO hard, especially by today's standards. If you like the music of Queen or Abba, you will probably like it as much as I do. Don't be fooled by the bouncy little "pop" intro of "Will You Remember Me": it has one of the VERY best electric guitar solos I've ever heard by ANYONE, Christian OR secular. One of my favorite songs, "Nobody Can Take My Life", has a nice driving beat, but needs a little something: maybe some electric guitar, tastefully done, of course. Ironically, my LEAST favorite song is the title song, "Rejoice"; too repetitive, I guess. Overall, the voices of these two sisters and brother are easy on the ears... nice harmony, nice variety of songs. Could use a little more electric guitar, but worthy to be on my Top 10 List.

4.0 out of 5 stars An entertaining Praise album, January 10, 2012

The 2nd Chapter of Acts / Rejoice: We find this legendary `Jesus Movement' group still making fine music in 1991 and for the Christian this is an wonderful album to hear, but the groups influential days are well past them. Still, a fine Four Star album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wish they still did music together!, February 13, 2011
