Wow, That's Loud!!

#39 and rising!!

Sounds like some of you stayed up past your bedtime last night to rock out with 18000 of us singing at the top of our lungs at Passion 06! Thanks for kicking things off!

And, we are so glad Charlie's CD made it, too! Not sure how that happened or how they misspelled Kristian's name (he's Kristian Stanfill, BTW)...or how the price is higher than it should be...or how we ended up in the Pop category...

But you troopers found the bundle (remember, buying all and waiting forever for the talk to download moves us on the overall album chart!) and are probably cranking it on the way to class right about now!

I'm loving the sound of a generation letting the whole world know Salvation is here...and He lives in me!

Jesus, You are my joy today!

oh, it was so worth staying up for...
though, it was kind of a bad move because it was so late that i couldn't sing and yell along with it since my roomie was sleeping :-\. but it's going on my iPod, and i will most certainly be rocking out to it all day...

My internet is down and I can't download the bundle! But never fear, the cable guy is on the way and should have it up and running soon! THank you!

So, um, Louie, listening to your talk again last night; the "POP" category is great!!! In a way, an answer to prayer... before I thought to pray it... Let's rock out and show them that Passion tops everything else POPular out there!!! It's not just tops in the "Christian World" :)

By Anonymous, at 1/24/2006 10:50 AM
I downloaded it this morning before I left for class and couldn't love it more. I can't believe how great it sounds... it's amazing just how great God is. Also, it's awesome that Charlie's CD made it on there, we gotta try and get that up the charts too... that would be sweet. Can't wait for him at 722 later tonight... just gotta get through these classes...

I love hillsong's "Salvation is Here". That has gotta be one of the best songs, with a few others from their album closely behind. I just wanted to say that it is a great choice to have that song on the cd, because the message is so true that "salvation is alive and it lives in me." I can't wait for the whole album in April.

Wah-hoo!!! #11 right now...

I can't wait for all the things God is going to do in our lives before Passion 07!!

well...
it was a surprise to hear 'salvation is here' with Kristian leading it...is Kristian gonna' be a sixsteps guy?! :) SUPER GOOD surprise though. what a statement and would the world hear those words, really loud, and feel the sincere heart of a generation joined as we sang that together in nashville that He is our joy and that He's here, now!
i love that this resource transcends time/place...hmm..sounds like the One we're singing about.
Louie...still waiting on your denim proto-types :)
salvation is here!!!!

NICE!

I'm wanting to buy it so bad. But I have to wait. I was ABOVE the yellow line. I guess this is my punishment for being late for the main session. . .

I am listening to it as we speak....OUTSTANDING! I am diggin' it!! I can't even imagine what it was like to have been there. God is mighty!

"Salvation is Here" happens to be a song that was done at the church service I went to last week! I think it's going to be big! Thanks for introducing us to Kristian!

Also, I see that a few have posted the chart # of the bundle....where on Itunes would I find that? Just curious....Thanks.

Thanks again for doing what you do with EXCELLENCE for God! Bless each and every one of you.

I downloaded this morning before class, and got to listen to part of the talk - it was great being reminded that God can use our passions for his Glory. Sitting in Modern Algebra this morning, i couldn't stop thinking about how God is using my love of math. Thanks for all you guys have done and how you have let God use you.

It is incredible again to relive the moments of Passion 06. From the moment I pushed play on "You are my Joy", I was taken back to our days in Nashville. What an amazing message! What an amazing Passion we have! I was one of the ones who downloaded it last night around 1am. Most of my housemates were getting to sleep and I couldnt blast it out in my room, so I downloaded the bundle to my iPod, and went driving around Charlottesville, Va rocking out in my car. Praise the King!

Hey Louie,
I downloaded the bundle last night and it could not have come at a more perfect time. The past two weeks have been insanely challenging and a lot of crazy things have been happening to my friends and I, which has left everyone spiritually discouraged lately. As I was walking out the door to my first class today, I grabbed my iPod and started listening to "Salvation is Here" and "You Are My Joy." As I was walking through my campus, it immediately took me back to Passion 06 and the reminder that although there are not 18,000 college students who are on fire for God all around me, they're out there. To hear the Passion crowd singing along with Kristian and Crowder was such an awesome reminder that there are other college people out there dealing with the same stuff I am. It's so great to know that I have that support. Sooo thanks for the Passion bundle and everything ya'll do!
In Him,
McCauley

WOW! I can't believe the Passion '06 bundle hit the #1 spot! PRAISE GOD! For those of you who haven't downloaded it... DO IT NOW!! It's awesome and you won't regret it.

Well, I must say that downloading the entire bundle via my prehistoric dialup connection was a significant commitment to the cause! But as the bundle is now #4, I guess it was worth it!

I can't wait to hear Louie's talk. I am (way) too old to attend Passion conferences, but definitely not too old to be passionate about our glorious God!

Louie-

With the whole Kristain Stanfill thing, I feel obligated to remind you that that kind of thing is exactly what we're going for!

One of the greatest things about Passion is that it loudly exclaims the statement that it's not about us and will never be about us. It's ALL for God! "Kristain" is just another reminder. Just like Chris Tomin was.

"You must increase, I must decrease."

Patiently I am trying to wait until Wednesday to purchase the bundle. Yes, that's right...even though I was early to the last main session, I had to sit above the yellow line and am now trying to find ways to pass the time until 12:00 and 1 second when it is officially Wednesday. OK, enough ranting. How amazing that the EP ended up in the Pop category. Just think how many people may have seen it in that category and checked it out! God is reminding us of the amazing-ness we saw of Him while we were at Passion!
Oh, and just for the update, the bundle is now at #4. Just wait until all the upper bowl people get the bundle tomorrow!
To God be all the praise and glory for the mistakes of iTunes and the popularity of the bundle!

Woohoo!!!! The bundle is at No. 3!! Let's shoot for No. 1. Can you just imagine what an impact this will make? Let's hope those who do not know about Passion, or even Jesus, will check it out just for curiosity.

By Donna, at 1/24/2006 9:59 PM
Where are the charts? I wanna keep a look at them...

By Silke, at 1/24/2006 10:16 PM
Woo hoo!

#3 overall so far today! YAY! And we still have a bit of the day left!

I'm sad though... I can't download the bundle yet... because I just moved and haven't set up MY computer yet... and my dad wouldn't be happy if I downloaded it onto his laptop. Though he does LOVE Passion... we're running low on hard drive space. :( And I was fortunate enough to be sitting below the yellow line and had the go ahead to download it today! So... someone can have my download... ok? I won't be able to get it for a while yet... so someone else can have my turn for today, even though there's not much day left! :)

Anyway... YAY for #3! I think we'll be at #1 tomorrow!

For HIS glory,
Andrea

I have had the staff working at iTunes on my heart and have been praying for them. Specifically, that they would hear the good news and see an album made with "excellence"! May every employee of Apple on the iTunes team who worked on the Passion album be touched by His love.

Ok, so I'm a day #2 guy and the wait was worth it!

DCB is rocking my face off at 12:23a.m.!!!!!

Just like we're all back there together :) Especially that feeling of not being able to breath due to singing so hard during the chorus!

It sadly seems as if us Canadians (and the rest of the world other than the United States) is left in the dark -- we don't get to purchase the bundle from the Canadian store as it's only available through the US iTunes store :( Boohoo.

Sitting here in anticipation for Charlie on 7|22 to show up on webstream. Also, Love and Marriage (with Voddie Bachaum Jr.) is back online! This was a GREAT series that totally resounded through my campus' Asian Christian Fellowship -- introduce it to yours and I'm sure you'll all grow closer together especially in cell/small/discipleship groups and single-gendered groups situations!

Thanks Passion for always being Christ-centered. Keep disappearing and making His name glorious!

I was in the level above the division that had to wait until 1/25 to get the bundle. It was WELL worth the wait. I can't wait for the next bundle and most of all the full cd! I'll definitely be rocking out to my iPod while working out today! I'm so excited.
