Hillsong United is an Australian rock and worship band, and a part of Hillsong Church's youth ministry. Their music is a contemporary style of praise and worship tempered with mainstream rock.
"One of the strengths of our Church is the way the youth are embraced and encouraged to be a part of all that is happening," says Joel Houston, the Creative Director of Hillsong Church. "It’s what makes United distinctive. We’re not just a band. The very nature of who we are and what we do is inclusive. It’s a discipling model. Everything we (the current band) do is because someone gave us an opportunity."
