3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as 'A Christmas Story', November 28, 2005

By	Erica K. Miller "rikkikm" (Tampa, FL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

These ladies have beautiful voices, but I am disappointed by this album. The song selections are trite and the album isn't much of a value at less than 45 minutes long. I prefer the song selection and arrangements of their 1999 Christmas release- it's a unique addition to my Christmas music collection that gets played frequently during the season.

5.0 out of 5 stars More traditional than their other Christmas album, November 16, 2005

By	Music Lover (USA) - See all my reviews

Point of Grace's first Christmas album 'A Christmas Story' hit legendary status. They took traditional songs and reworked them wonderfully. I was expecting something similar with 'Winter Wonderland' but didn't find it. Point of Grace seems to take more of a traditional approach on this album. They have reworked traditional songs but they stay fairly close to the original. The one exception of course is the song entitled "Let There Be Light" which is a new song. It's no secret that the voices of the members of Point of Grace seem to melt into one voice so if traditional Christmas music is your thing you're going to love this cd. If you're looking for more of a departure from the traditional songs you may be a little disappointed the first run through. Give it another listen or two, however, and I think you'll come to enjoy this cd more and more. Christmas music is used for a variety of purposes: to get into the Christmas mood, as background for a Christmas party etc...this cd would work well for all of them. I give this cd 5 stars because of the quality of vocals and songs themselves. These are classic Christmas songs and will be enjoyed by all. Have a very Merry Christmas!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!, November 1, 2005

By	K. Pemberton "cherith" (Portland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've waited for this second Christmas Album from Point of Grace. I like this album because it incorporates so many different styles of music.

Some of the music is big band, some is acapella, and some of it is what I would call the "Point of Grace" sound.

My favorite songs are "All is Well" and "In the First Light"
