They are often praised for their lyrical content as being amongst the best in the worship music industry. The striking resemblance to the real thing before our eyes is certainly not accidental, as almost exactly the same image appears when looking at the stage area.
The increasingly vociferous crowd of teenagers and their excited mums drives our attention towards the main area. There is the kind of trepidation that is proper of a hormones-driven congregation, and we find our little niche at a safe distance. Just in time; because when Joel Houston and Jonathan "JD" Douglass take the stage, they do so almost pulled by the energy originated by the warmer and denser centre of the standing area.
The venue appears as small as ever, and the imposing amps on both sides of the stage can hardly keep up with the roaring reception. It almost feels like home.
This is rock and pop and choruses. Whenever the music drifts too far from radio-friendliness, a refrain leads the song back to its pop roots. And the cycle repeats itself on the next song. If the intent behind 'Hillsong United' is of a religious nature, the effect the band has on its crowd is such that one has to wonder whether the youngest exponents of their fanbase successfully receive the message.
Their approach is simple, their taste in clothing is no different from the one of their average buff, and even the videos projected behind the band are uncomplicated and easily appreciated by the bystanders.
The show started with some delay due to an issue with the lighting system, so we approach the curfew with the type of relief the little army of fathers at the back expresses with smiles while quickly finishing their drinks. A series of thank yous and God bless yous is produced on the stage, but then the lights are turned on and we're back to reality. Read more. Report as inappropriate. A Hillsong concert is an incredible experience, whether you are religious or not.
Originally set up to lead worship in the dynamic Hillsong Church in Australia, the group now play huge arena and festival gigs across the world. The Church has also become a global phenomenon.
A Hillsong concert is a spiritual and musical event. Honestly, the only way to appreciate this band is to see them live. No group generate greater audience participation. Many of the crowd will be worshipping. The outdoor venue was huge and the atmosphere was breathtaking. A Hillsong concert is not to be missed. Everywhere I looked through everyone in attendance, I felt and saw the Lord in all his wonder. I've been to a handful of Christian concerts where the Lord was not the main act, however this one was anything but that.
A truly blessed event. God willing, I am looking forward to seeing Mack Brock on his next tour where he is able to play more of his songs. I missed most of his set when he toured with Rend Collective because I was in a very long line at the concession and also this tour because I was in line looking at t-shirts when he started 10 minutes earlier than expected.
I feel a great connection to God through his songs and grateful for the songs I was able to witness. Amanda was a wonderful surprise. I was only familiar with a couple of her songs but she had this quietness about her and a genuine and clear enthusiasm for Jesus Christ. A blessed performer and blessed to witness.
Hillsong was just amazing and to share it with my daughter, sister-in-law and especially my wife was a blessing. There was so much love for the Lord in that coliseum I couldn't contain myself. Would go to see them a hundred billion times. God bless. Tremendous show, musically and spiritually connecting the entire audience in peace and love with Jesus. Musicianship was excellent, but it was not about the music.
It was about Jesus and his mercy and Grace abounds. Standing on the floor about 15 feet back from the stage with arms held wide open and the Band just responding to every hearts outpouring of love made this show the best musical event I have ever been to in 54 years of life in this world. Breathtaking Experience. We attended the Oklahoma City concert on Friday, July Lauren Daigle opened and she was great!
Hillsong United was even better than the first time we attended! They played songs from the new album as well as old favorites. The video and lights were amazing! Their message is delivered well and support their Christian mission. Hope to see them again! The title would be Went to a concert but had Church instead!! Skip to Content. Browse Categories.

Hillsong UNITED propagate the idea of Jesus AS superstar, a blinding ray of light, the same one that knocked Saul of Tarsus off his horse, whose non-judgmental love is an omnipotent protein shake for the soul.
Pop songs about the greatness of God played in sporting arenas is probably more appealing than the sober church services I grew up with, where a soft spoken vicar read prayers and sermons in-between a chorus of retirees singing year-old hymns.
However, fans of the group will certainly be delighted by the flawlessly executed live show exhibited in The People Tour: Live From Madison Square Garden. Divine redemption must be on the minds of many in the Hillsong community these days. In Nov. Perhaps saddest of all, as Peter denied Christ before him, Justin Bieber announced he had left the church earlier this month on social media.
