Grant and Gill have said of this release:
"Since 1993, we've celebrated Christmas with hometown concerts. Singing these songs year after year has created a lifetime of memories for us. We hope this collection of songs brings to mind the best of times and the Love that holds all of us and everything together, the Good News of Great Joy that shall be for all people."
