It was my first time listening to a Christmas album by Phil Wickham. This one is actually his fourth Christmas album – which I had no idea of. I’ve heard Phil Wickham’s songs in the past, but it had been a while since I’ve listened to his music. I remember enjoying his worship-fused tunes. I happened upon this one, because I was looking for a good holiday album. I have to say, it was a pleasant welcome back. I didn’t even know that this was his fourth Christmas album, but I’m so glad I discovered it through CMADDICT’s Spotfiy Christmas music playlist (check it out here!).
Right away, I was drawn in. I liked how he took familiar songs and added his own festive spirit to them. It had more of a modern-worshipful spark, but somehow, the same comforting feel that you get from classic songs. When I got to the second track, I knew this was going to be one of the best Christian Christmas albums I’ve ever discovered. “God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman” is one of my favorite songs during the holiday season, and his rendition of it is now my go-to for Christmas.
There were other favorites of mine, “Silent Night, Holy Night,” with its calm, but powerful melody, “Deck the Halls with CHPTRS,” it starts more toned down, but grows to a joyous celebration at the end, “Hallelujah! It’s Christmas!,” which is also the title of this album – it’s a beautiful, and cheerful track, and “Worth The Wait,” it spurs this ancient, and hopeful tune about Christ (He was indeed worth the wait!), “Holy Forever,” is a worshipful song that brings a focused glory of God, and lastly, “O Christmas Tree (Greatest Story),” is a sweet, and reflective story on the Greatest Story. In conclusion, all the songs are great, and sure to move you to sing along with the lyrics.
Phil Wickham has a couple of albums, as well as his four Christmas albums. I first discovered him from his album Heaven and Earth. A friend of mine first introduced me to his music. I enjoyed that album and played the songs often. Because of this Christmas album, I’m curious to check out his other music again. I loved this new Christmas album by Phil Wickham, and I look forward to more. I highly recommend Hallelujah! It’s Christmas! and his other music, as well. You’ll like them for sure.

Whether it’s a dream that isn’t coming true, a stretch of the journey that feels especially dark, or just the basic “busy and tired” each of us braves in the crazy chaos of the ordinary, have you ever faced a season where “life to the full” feels just out of reach, light seems like it it’s just over the horizon, or lies seem to crowd out the truth? If you’re anything like Ellie Holcomb, the answer is yes. For her in these seasons, God’s Word has been a shelter, a comfort, a song, a balm, and an anchor. Ultimately, it’s been a light that has helped kick back at the darkness of the lies we so often believe.
In her debut devotional, Fighting Words, you are invited to come alongside Ellie, as you ponder the power of God’s promises together and speak them into the darkest corners of your soul. Filled with encouraging and honest reflections, beautifully designed Scripture memory chapters, and wonderful questions to help you process, Fighting Words is a place where you can wrestle, respond to, and take hold of precious truths in God’s Word to help you push back the lies that so often consume, distract, and destroy us. God’s Word is alive.
In this devotional, Ellie invites you to steep your soul in the living Word, take hold of it, wrestle with it, bury it in your heart, and watch as it brings about life and flourishing. As you journey along with Ellie, you’ll find that little by little, you’re fighting the lies with the truth, kicking back the darkness, and living in the light.
