  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Newsboys are amazing! I only discovered them at the beginning of this year, then luckily they had one date in the UK at Alton Towers... they were Amazing! (So good that the next day I went out and bought Adoration, Thrive and Step up to the Microphone... I already had Love Liberty Disco and Devotion).

My Favourite songs have to be Devotion, Million Pieces, He Reigns, the covers of the Matt Redman and Tim Hughes songs... better than the originals!

I really want them to come back to the UK again, but there is nowt in their dates.

My favorite Newsboys song is In Christ Alone. I love the way that it goes step by step through the gospel. It is also full of lines that are full of Biblical truth like "fullness of God in helpless babe." That is one concept that is almost impossible to understand. I also like "From life's first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny." That is one of my favorite lines from any Christian song; its so encouraging and hopeful to know that God is in control of my entire life.

I think Let it Rain was written for Newsboys by Steve Taylor - he writes for Sixence none the Richer too.
Anyway, I love Newsboys too - my favourite is 'Million Pieces', the lyrics ring soo true. We got to see them playing at Alton Towers here in England earlier this year, they were fantastic in concert!

yeah, In Christ Alone has some of the best lyrics ever. I like on the 3rd verse, which we always play really loudly with extra drums etc at Church, when it goes

Then bursting forth in glorious Day

Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory

Sin's curse has lost its grip on me

It is such a powerful song.

Shine....and Breakfast in done by the original newsboys before Peter Fuler took over as lead vocals.....i just liked the other guys voice better. heck there best album IMO was Take me to your Leader.

I agree - I haven't liked any of their music since Take Me To Your Leader.
Different singer, and that was was produced by Steve Taylor, who also wrote several of the songs.

I love In Christ Alone too! You know that's actually an old hymn. It has incredible lyrics!

Anyone know anything about the new cd they are supposedly supposed to have out sometime this month? I heard they were somewhere, don't remember and then I was looking at their website and the only thing that said anything was an old news item that barely mentioned it.
