Shine: The Hits is the first compilation album by Christian pop rock group Newsboys. It was released in 2000, spanning recordings from 1988 to 1998 (songs from 1999's Love Liberty Disco, their latest studio album at the time, were left off the collection). Exclusive to the set were three new songs ("Joy", "Who?", and "Praises"), an update of their 1996 hit "God Is Not a Secret", featuring TobyMac, a remix of their hit "Shine", and an eight-minute "Mega-Mix" of several of their biggest hits. Also included is an extended version of "I'm Not Ashamed", which differs from the original album version.

Shine: The Hits Live One Night in Pennsylvania

Shine: The Hits Live One Night in Pennsylvania was released to DVD in 2000. While the title of the DVD is the same as the compilation album of the same name, it is essentially a re-release of the Newsboys' Live: One Night in Pennsylvania concert DVD, which was recorded during their Step Up to the Microphone tour in 1998. Because of this, not all of the songs are included on both the CD and DVD. Songs exclusive to the live DVD are "Cup O' Tea" (from their 1996 Take Me to Your Leader album), "Always," "Truth Be Known - Everybody Gets a Shot," and "Hallelujah" (the latter three taken from their Step Up to the Microphone album, which they were promoting at the time). Songs not included on the DVD include all of the 2000 recordings and re-recordings ("Joy," "Who?," "Praises," "Mega-Mix," "God Is Not a Secret"), as well as "I Got Your Number" and "Where You Belong"/"Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus." In addition the song “Reality” features a brief cover of Funkytown by Lipps inc. covered by Jeff Frankenstein.

  1. "I'm Not Ashamed"
  2. "Spirit Thing"
  3. "Take Me to Your Leader"
  4. "WooHoo"
  5. "Cup O' Tea"
  6. "Entertaining Angels"
  7. "Always"
  8. "Believe"
  9. "Reality"
  10. "Truth Be Known - Everybody Gets a Shot"
  11. "Drum Solo"
  12. "Breakfast"
  13. "Step Up to the Microphone"
  14. "Hallelujah"
  15. "Shine"

Radio singles

All of the previously released songs had already been issued as singles to radio, and all five of the new tracks were eventually released as singles (this does not include the slightly different mix of "Shine" included in this set):

  • "Joy"
  • "Mega-Mix"
  • "Who?"
  • "God Is Not a Secret" (featuring TobyMac)
  • "Praises"
