Outline In the afterglow of capturing a Dove award for "Rock album of the year" with their southern-rock grinder Time, Third Day has now stepped in line with the worship movement and released Offerings: A Worship Album. Interspersed among five new songs, this album contains several live concert tracks, including the favorite "Your Love, Oh Lord." Even though the new songs demonstrate Third Day's superior creativity and talent, the live tracks are the forte of this project. The undulating dynamics exhibit the band's unity as they work together to create a singular response to the Savior. As well, some of the tracks incorporate the sound of the worshiping audience, adding a congregational feel to the album. The lyrical content is similar to that of songs from a typical Sunday morning service. But these traditional expressions of faith are given new life by the resonating fervor of Mac Powell's lead vocal style. Third Day is known for being uncompromisingly God-centered with their music. This project uncovers that quality to its most extreme degree. --Israel Button

I'm not a huge Third Day fan, and I find the worship album genre to be totally saturated. However, this album emerges near the top.
Quite frankly, I find just about every song on this recording to be memorable. My personal favorites are "All the Heavens" and "Love Song," which wrap things up admirably.
The live nature of several of the tracks are great, as we experience some of the beauty of a Third Day concert. (I saw them in concert years ago and found that experience to be much better than any of their other recordings besides this one.)
Third Day chose songs for this worship album with great spiritual depth, outstanding musical diversity, and great technical skill. And Mac Powell's voice is fantastic, as always.
If I could only choose one worship album for my collection, this one would certainly be in the running!!
Not your Grandma's worship album Apr 6, 2006
I love Third Day, and this album, while a different feel from their other, more "rock" cds is fantastic. I love worship music that doesn't feel drippy or trite, and this is it. From the beautiful "Love Song" to the powerful remake of "Agnus Dei" and the great cover of Dylan's "Saved" this is a picture perfect modern rock CD. The song "Thief", basically a narrative of the repentant man on the cross next to Jesus is very thought-provoking and moving, and don't miss the hidden track at the end.
A CD I Keep Going Back To Hear Apr 3, 2006
I love Third Day and, of all their CDs, this is the one I keep putting in the car stereo. I just saw them a couple of weeks ago on their current tour and they played several songs from this CD (my favorites are "Consuming Fire" and the one they said was their most-requested song, "Thief").
This is worship on a stadium-sized scale.
(A note about the one-star review below by Joseph Izzo: of the almost two-dozen reviews he's written, he trashes other CCM artists with the same sentence pushing Neal Burse. I don't know who Neal is...but he might want to check into an order of protection....)
