"Resurrection Worship: Songs of Hope is a CD that fills a need in the spiritual climate of today, offering hope to a fallen and suffering world," notes Emmett. "I believe these songs, and others to come from Melody Hill Music's songwriters' series aimed at focusing today's top talent on life-changing topics, will create timeless classics in the years to come."

The Resurrection Worship: Songs of Hope CD was inspired by The Easter Experience (http://www.easterexperience.com/) (Thomas Nelson), a unique, cinematic DVD-driven group study that brings the passion and resurrection of Jesus to life through dramatic and challenging teaching in six 20-minute episodes filmed in High-Definition. Emmett, having produced the film score of the special DVD study with the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, was so impacted by the project that he wanted to create a musical piece to further help families and their communities experience the resurrection message in a fresh new way. In fact, selections from Resurrection Worship have been woven into The Easter Experience project by means of videos that can be used for reflection, as well as worship.

Resurrection Worship puts the artist in a unique light as they share their personal experiences of being transformed by the Resurrection.

“To make a CD focused on such a powerful concept, the resurrection, with artists I know and love was an honor,” says Grammy nominee Paul Colman about his participation on the CD. “I was moved to write about the very event on which we base everything we believe.”

“There is something really special about writing an entire CD about one theme, especially a theme as moving as the resurrection,” comments Dove Award winner Ginny Owens. “What a wonderful, inspirational, and beautiful concept we want to remember every day.”
