Most of us have been there, you have attended a major Christian event, you have enjoyed the worship, been ministered to by the teaching and now you are faced with the dilemma what recordings do I take home. When faced with single CDs of the teaching, not only does it become bulky but also expensive. The solution is now here. The concept of 'Event In A Box' involves a CD of worship alongside an additional CD teaching from the event. The latter are MP3 files so they are ideal for MP3 players and computers but not standard audio CD players. This format allows for seven modules in all their sessions (22 in all). Teachers include Alec Motyer, Ian Coffey and Jonathan Altken. The worship CD contains 10 songs, however only four of the recordings are from the event in question ("Almighty God", "Sing To The Lord", "Grace Unmeasured", and "I Will Sing The Wondrous Story"), the remaining 6 are from past years. This in addition to the worship disc only lasting 37 minutes, is a real disappointment and lets the package down. However, I applaud the idea and hope such packages receive wide acceptance.
