"I had previously owned one Martins CD--Windows, which I enjoyed for the great harmony and exuberance of Gospel music. I previewed GlorifyEdifyTestify in a local Christian music store and decided to bring it home. I am so very glad that I did!The Martins as always demonstrate brilliant harmony, and great musical arrangements. Yes, there is Gospel flavor on the CD, but they have also taken some of the contemporary worship songs that I am familiar with and added just enough to make them something special, never taking them to irreverence. The Martins have provided 15 songs on the CD--I appreciate their generosity in doing so. Only one song on the CD was less than I hoped for--Michael W. Smith's worship tune "Great is the Lord." I didn't like the brass instruments and the unusual arrangement--it didn't seem to fit. Otherwise this is a great CD and very unique, showing much imagination and work, and heart for God."

I love it!

"This is certainly the best Martins' CD so far. It has an outstanding mix of different styles, mixed with a capella here and there. Their harmonies and blends are amazing. My first exposure to this group was when I bought a tape from my local Christian bookstore entitled "Martins Live...in His presence" - great music, I don't think it's available on Amazon, though - and that made me become a Martins music fan. I understand they're coming out with a new release later this year, so I'm anxiously awaiting what these music innovators have in store for us. . ."
