I gave the DVD 5 stars even though it is missing a number of my Mercy Me favorites. The presentation is "on stage," live, instead of music videos; I like that - you get to see the group perform and watch the people in the audience react. The performances are very moving, especially if you allow yourself to drift into the music. The audience is obviously "getting into" the music, and watching them is part of the fun.
I use this DVD, along with a number of others, to assist in teaching a Sunday School class. The kids love the music, it can reinforce a point made in the lesson (kids remember music well), and it lets the kids know that Christian music can be pretty awesome. This DVD is especially awesome projected "big screen-style" on a wall in a Sunday School classroom; it feels like you are at the concert.
Christian music provides a wide variety of good songs to grow up on, and Mercy Me is one of my favorite Christian groups. Others favorites of mine are Soniflood, ApologetiX, and Switchfoot.
If you want a dose of Contemporary Christian music that is not too hard and not too soft, then this is a group you should check out. The DVD is a terrific presentation of their music and their skills. It is a great buy for the money.
