United States	Nick Schager The Daily Beast	"Per modern docuseries convention, 'The Secrets of Hillsong' runs at least one episode too long. Regardless, it’s a comprehensive overview of a reprehensible situation that often plays out in the religious world"	POS
United States	Meredith Blake Los Angeles Times	"The series goes deep into the history of the Australian megachurch alleging a pattern of cover-ups, inappropriate behavior and financial self-dealing by Brian Houston"	POS
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"An effective picture of a megachurch that tried to modernize the old-fashioned Pentecostal service, despite being not only just as ultra-conservative as other evangelical ministries, but in possession of lots and lots of secrets"	POS
United States	Nick Allen rogerebert.com	"A fascinating docuseries looks at the church's shiny edifice and dismantles it piece by piece (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"	POS
