Media Says: All Things New 'like cool water in a desert'

BRENTWOOD, TN. (Sparrow Records) - Steven Curtis Chapman is no stranger to kind words these days for his 14th recording, ALL THINGS NEW, in stores September 21. Earlier this month, CCM magazine called the set 'a brand new trail of diverse pop gems.' Now, ChristianityToday.com has likened the disc's unique strengths to 'cool water in a desert.'

'Honestly, this guy sounds like he's getting younger with age,' writes respected journalist Russ Breimeier in regard to the fresh sound of ALL THINGS NEW.

Indeed, Chapman did make a conscious effort to start with a clean slate on the project. Chapman's primary strength remains in his thoughtful and accessible words…Instead of rehashing Scripture or relying on tired rhetoric, he offers thoughtful ideas—the mark of a good songwriter—using personal examples, catchy turns of phrase, and introspective questioning….The difference is like cool water in a desert.'
