==History==
Inspired by visits to India with Joyce Meyer Ministries, Delirious? decided to place the focus of the album on inequality and justice around the world. Guitarist Stu G. said, Seeing children looking for scraps on the rubbish dump they call homes in Cambodia and the education and feeding projects in the slums of Mumbai India really had an impact on us. It wasn’t possible to simply proceed with business as usual. We had to ask ourselves, ‘What am I building? A kingdom of comfort? Or a kingdom of heaven?’〔("Delirious-Biography" ) christianitytoday.com. Retrieved on 2008-12-22.〕 He also stated later that the title of the album was inspired from a sermon by Rob Bell, author and pastor of Mars Hill Bible Church.〔
When the band returned to the studio, they began the process of writing and recording the record. An improvised section, often played during the band's song 'History Maker', was adapted to form 'God Is Smiling'.〔("Kingdom Of Comfort: Song By Song - Martin and Stu G" ) delirious.co.uk. Retrieved on 2009-5-26.〕'Wonder' was written by Martin Smith about a child whom his family came close to adopting.〔 'We Give You Praise' was written in collaboration with Hillsong worship leader Marty Sampson.〔 'Break The Silence' was also written with ex Snow Patrol musician Iain Archer.〔 Fifteen songs were recorded in total, and twelve were selected for the final album. The band released the second track, "God is Smiling", as an MP3 download from their official website on 1 November 2007; it had been downloaded over 10,000 times by January 2008. Another free download from the album, 'We Give You Praise', was released on 1 February 2008.
