A Christian rock and worship group, Hillsong spun out of Australia's Hillsong Church, a Pentecostal ministry based in northwest Sydney. As the church evolved during the 1980s, an annual event was founded to teach and nurture contemporary Christian musicians. A live album released under the name Hillsong Live (later to be rebranded as Hillsong Worship) titled The Power of Your Love hit retail in 1992, featuring singers/songwriters Geoff Bullock and Darlene Zschech, both mainstays on the myriad Hillsong albums to follow. Despite several controversies that caused the church to become a lightning rod for their strong political stances, the juggernaut surged forward and by the 2010s, Hillsong and its associated brands were mainstays on charts all over the globe.
