The Psalms are absolutely brim full of expressions of lvoe and devotion to God for everything he has done. DZ is at the forefront of a movement within Christianity to "dumb down" congregational music into inane "Jesus is my boyfriend" lyrics. Secondly, Darlene is a central figure in Hillsong church in Sydney, Australia. I am Australian and I have visited that church. Brian Houston, the pastor, preaches "Word of Faith" - prosperity. I don't think Darlene should be listened to, either in book form or song form. A note on Darlene Zschech’s quote:

He just showed me how my life's goal and joy is to be the pursuit of holiness in His power, and it's been both so very convicting and yet uplifitng. My heart is what matters, and when it's in the right place, the rest will follow. amen.

It was just the encouragement and conviction I needed. That Chambers question is so simple, yet so powerful. Tim, thanks so much for that post. It was just the encouragement and conviction I needed.
