Earning a Grammy nomination for every album released isn't too shabby a track record. That's why it shouldn't surprise most that Big Tent Revival's fourth recording, Choose Life, is another giant leap forward for this quintet with the Midas touch. The album deftly captures the group's deepening maturity in both spirituality and songwriting abilities. You can't help but get caught up in the feel-good, bouncy flow of rockers like "Livin' Off Your Love" and "Fill Me with Your Spirit," each a likely radio hit. Yet the group can change pacing, as with the title track, a yearnful, poignant ballad, and the softly melodic "This Is the Word of God." The release ends on a wild, rowdy note with the Christmas rave-up "That's What I Want for Christmas." Indeed, there is an air of sophistication, a comfort zone if you will, that BTR appears to have reached on Choose Life. It's safe to say this is the band's finest hour. --Michael Lyttle

Choose Life and Word of God really minister to me on this CD. Try it, you just might like it. BTR has a great mix of soaring guitar licks and heavy percussion. Like a cross between classic rock and southern rock.

I first heard BTR at Edison International Field during Harvest Cursade 2000. Their music was so uplifting people were moved to tears. To be able to witness people fill up with this uncontrolled joy was awesome to me. They had become one of my favorite christian bands and I suggest you give them a try.

Alright, so maybe BTR decided to try a more subtle approach. Whatever they did, they sure did it well! Some people are upset because they did not quite carry along the rocky beat they had given themselves the reputation for. Oh well, I still loved Choose Life, and highly recomend it and all their prviouse albums! (e.g. Big Tent Revival, Amplifier) Go for it!

I had never heard of this group, and didn't really listen to much Christian music. however, while on a church ski retreat, i received this cd. I popped it in my cd player, and have been in love with it ever since. i identify with the line "i've been to the ledge so many times i know the pigeons by name" in the song Live for you, and i get choked up when i hear a part of Father Please Forgive them. This is definitely a cd to buy.
