Point of Grace is the second album by Contemporary Christian group Point of Grace. It was released in 1995 by Word Records with selected market distribution by Epic Records in a deal that dated to Word's ownership by Capital Cities Communications in the 1980's. The Epic deal expired shortly after Word's acquisition by AOL Time Warner in 2002.

[edit] Trivia

  • When songwriter Grant Cunningham was writing the lyrics to "The Great Divide" on his computer, he had originally meant to type out the phrase "there's a bridge to cross the great divide," but when he printed the song out, it came out as "there's a cross to bridge the great divide." It was a typo, but the girls and John Mays loved what it said and kept it.
  • The girls had had a fight right before they went into the studio to cut "Gather At The River." As they sang through the song, the lyrics to the first line spoke to them ("Sometimes we don't see eye to eye / We don't agree, we don't know why"), and they forgave each other and got on with it.
  • The video to "Gather At The River" was shot in Oklahoma in 105 degree weather. Everyone's favorite scene was, of course, the water scene.
  • The lead vocal by Shelley on "God Is With Us" is her scratch vocal.
  • There is a very low part on the first verse of "Love Like No Other," and the producers were not happy with the way it was sounding, so they sent vocal producer Cheryl Rogers to go in and sing that bit with them.
  • Shelley had participated in the writing of one cut on the album, a rarity in that a member had participated in writing on an album; it is the only time it has happened in the group's history.
