Mercy Me

 

The Christmas Sessions
Spring Hill Music

Merry Christmas, folks.

Like the spine tingles you get from the church scene in “Home Alone,” MercyMe stuffs our stockings with “The Christmas Sessions,” a 12-song electric candy cane of a record.

To get a better idea, imagine expecting Christmas carolers but getting a full rock opera when opening the door. Then imagine drinking percolated punch with a bunch of youth ministers in fleece pullovers, all of whom recently graduated from a Christian college and are serious about their call to preach.

That’s what this CD makes you feel like. Listen for yourself on CD or live Dec. 17 at the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex, where the group will be in concert with Steven Curtis Chapman.
