Last week I reviewed Matt Redman's latest offering, Unbroken Praise. I found this album to be mellow on the ear but lyrically "kapow! kapow! kapow!" As part of their Big Christmas Giveaway, Gateway News will be giving away a copy of this top notch singer/songwriters album. Winners anounced next Thursday on their Facebook page.
