![]() ![]() Those waves were packed with speeding-truck-crash quantities of violence, and Lenny was going faster, turning harder and more stylishly, than anyone before him. Possibly he was enjoying himself, but if so that was unnatural. Whipped into position by a Jet Ski, he would drop the towrope on a rapidly steepening wave with a fifty-foot face and start carving quick little rhythmic turns, then launch a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree aerial rotation, as if he were enjoying himself. Lenny, who is twenty-nine, began to light up big-wave surfing five or six years ago with performances that defied understanding. But millions of video-content consumers watch their best efforts-or their worst wipeouts, which can drive even more online traffic. Professional big-wave surfing is a niche activity, practiced by only a handful of brave souls. These things aren’t done, or at least they weren’t. When I first saw it, from the back of a Jet Ski, in February, I yelped involuntarily. You may have seen it on video, but that doesn’t prepare you for the velocity, the impossible confidence, of a hard braking turn at the top of an enormous wave, often right in the luminous turquoise window of a lip about to pitch-for that abrupt turn back toward the bottom, as if he wanted the weightless drop of the downcarve more than he wanted to make it out in one piece. They have also released two Christmas albums and several compilation albums. "What a Beautiful Name" won the 2018 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song.Watching Kai Lenny surf at Pe‘ahi, a big-wave spot off the north coast of Maui, is slightly heart-stopping. Other music series include the Worship series, United, Youth Alive, Hillsong Kids, and Instrumental series. Since then, live praise and worship albums have been produced each year. Their first live worship CD The Power of Your Love was released in 1992. It is in this context that Hillsong Music was founded in 1991. Hillsong Church's popularity in Christian praise and worship music stems from the inauguration of the Hillsong Conference in 1986 and the first publication of choruses written by Hills CLC members, especially Darlene Zschech. The main groups are Hillsong Worship, Hillsong United, Hillsong Young & Free, and Hillsong Kids. Hillsong albums are released and distributed by Hillsong Music. ![]() Hillsong Music is Christian music produced by Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia as well as offshoot churches, Hillsong London and Hillsong Kiev. The vocalist is Taya Smith, a newcomer to the Hillsong team. According to Hillsong, it's a song "about stepping into the unknown and a song about faith and trust." The disciple did so, but temporarily lost faith and began to sink, so he was compelled to call on Jesus to rescue him. "Oceans" by Hillsong United tells the story, as told in Matthew 14:22-33, of Peter called by Jesus to walk on the water. The Story Behind Oceans (Where Feet May Fail) "Fear not, for I am with you be not dismayed, for I am your God I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." ~ Isaiah 40:10 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God." ~ Romans 8:13-14 "For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders "So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart." ~ 2 Timothy 2:22 "For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” ~ Romans 10:13 When oceans rise, my soul will rest in Your embrace But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me." Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?" And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God." ~ Matthew 14:25-33 Do not be afraid." And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water." He said, "Come." So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. ![]() "And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, "It is a ghost!" and they cried out in fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Take heart it is I. ![]()
