On the evening of Sunday, March 9th 2008, thousands of worshippers gathered to fill the Acer Arena in Sydney as Hillsong Church recorded their latest live worship album.

It was an unforgettable night. An encounter with God that left the thousands who filled the stadium humbled and in awe of the wonder and grace of God and the reality of Christ.
We come together and we say, "This is who we are, God. We need You, we love You, and we're going to give everything to You. It's actually about the church coming together and singing with One Voice, One Passion, One Heart, giving all our praise to God" Said Joel Houston.

The church was truly united in heart and passion - and the breadth of the hillsong worship team was reflected as a number of new songwriters, worship leaders and musicians joined Darlene Zschech , Reuben Morgan, Joel Houston and Marty Sampson on the platform to capture the sound of the generations old and new together in worship and song.

The new album titled 'This is Our God', the 17th live praise and worship album, will be released in July, coinciding with the annual Hillsong Conference held at the Acer Arena
