Life Church Music is the worship band from Life Church in Germantown, Wisconsin (main campus). Their album, Greater Things, was recorded live at a worship event held on March 2, 2016. The Greater Things event provided a full-length live album recording chock full of songs that are ready to be inserted into your church's worship service. While the instrumentation is much more indepth than most churches have the ability for, the songs can still be pulled off even with more minimal worship bands. The title track opens the album on an upbeat note before going into the more worshipful "More of You" and "Mountains." Some electronic elements and synths are brought into "No Matter What" (as well as with the bonus tracks, "Soul Searching" and "Surrender's Banner"). The sound definitely adds a different element and makes them stand out from the remaining tracks. The listener's fondness for electronic elements will very likely determine their like, or dislike, of these particular songs. The rest of the album is musically made up of Christian radio and congregational worship styled songs. The tunes undoubtedly fit the mold of today's modern worship and carry the sound that so many expect from today's worship music. Beyond the aforementioned numbers, the short and sweet (pun intended) "Tis So Sweet," "Child of Light" and "Thank You For the Cross," are also solid additions. While Greater Things comes far from breaking any molds, and does offer much more of the same ol'-same ol' musically, Life Church Music does it well. The music and vocals are both performed with excellent ability and the energy of a live performance is felt strongly. Fans of modern worship music and today's CCM will very likely find a lot to enjoy with the album. Fans of fringe worship artists creating a slightly different kind of art will probably want to keep scouring the indie scene for their next listen.
