00:00I don't know why God has used a little youth band from a church in the outer suburbs of Sydney,

00:07but for some reason, he's given us this opportunity.

00:12When I started a church, I wanted to have a church that wrote songs

00:15that influenced the way people worship.

00:19There was this underground movement.

00:21We'd do these events, and there'd be thousands turning up.

00:24In the end, our success is not about us.

00:30It's ultimately about God.

00:32When you take Him out of the equation, we've got nothing.

00:37When I walked into Hillsong, I knew my life was different.

00:40I felt this hard shell around my heart just begin to crack open.

00:48I believe that God created music to connect people, the human heart,

00:53our soul, with heaven.

00:59The challenge is on to write a new record.

01:01Taylor's got a song.

01:03Jesus.

01:05All right, so we've got that, Jesus Wu.

01:10For us, these songs are written for people to sing, not just to listen to.

01:17I believe there's life after death for eternity,

01:20and so I want people to come to that journey with us.

01:22Music has always been something that connects me to God straight away,

01:25and I realize, God, who am I to lead these people?

01:31I'm just a country girl.

01:32We're headed into Sony Studios.

01:46I guess this would be 11 albums.

01:48We're the biggest band you've never heard of.

01:51You actually need time to listen, time to breathe,

01:54time to clear out all the noise.

01:56I really want to hear from heaven.

01:57Does everything make sense?

02:18Absolutely not.

02:19But I think more stuff doesn't make sense without him.
