THIS IS OUR GOD - PRAISE GATHERING

This Is Our God was recorded over three nights in June 2009 at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall attended by 5,800 people. The recording includes 400 singers from over 125 churches throughout West and Central Scotland including special guests Kristyn Getty, Brad & Bethany Goodine.

Praise Gathering has its origins in a choir which came together in 1985 to sing the ‘Psalms Alive’ songs. At that time the invitation was given “to singers - skilled and unskilled, but with a heart for God - to come and take part in this corporate act of Praise to our God.” Over the years, many people have responded to that invitation and last summer we had a choir of 400 singers drawn from 125 different churches.

The history of Praise Gathering is therefore really a history of God at work in the lives of ordinary people who have experienced His love and forgiveness in their own lives. People who are discovering that praising and worshipping God with their voices and their lives is not something that comes naturally, but is something that has to be learned. People who, in learning to acclaim God, are discovering that, in doing so, they experience the joy of His presence every day!
