"ROILING GOSPEL RIVERS
The controlled intensity of Beverly Rivers
by Nicky Baxter, Jr
[an excerpt from Metro Entertainment Magazine]

". . . Taking her cue from the pop successes of groups like the Winans and Andrae Crouch, Rivers has filled Prophecy with pop-glossed gospel that bears little resemblance to Mahalia Jackson's unfettered cries in the worldly wilderness. This commercially palatable approach, proponents argue, is what it takes to reach the young folks. But Rivers' admirable technical skill is overshadowed by the power of her emotionally charged message of salvation in an increasingly secularized world. She has alchemized a pop style with an unshakable spiritual substance allowing us a glimpse into another, everlasting place."
