MUSICREVIEWS ANDREW PETERSON Resurrection Letters, Vol. 1
Andrew Peterson has released, through Centricity Music, Resurrection Letters, Vol. I. Preceding the album is the EP Resurrection Letters: Prologue, “five songs that take us from the last words of Jesus on the cross to his interment in the tomb. And then comes the long wait for Sunday morning,” Andrew says. Resurrection Letters, Vol. I, follows with the bright new hope found in the risen Jesus. The nine tracks carry to listeners the best news we’ve ever heard: Christ is risen! In His love for us, He has defeated sin and death. “My dream for Resurrection Letters, Vol. I, is that it would be the kind of record people turned up to eleven on Easter Sunday, when Christians all over the world celebrate something that happened — it really happened — two millennia ago,” says Andrew. Resurrection Letters, Vol. I, celebrates Jesus’ victory and calls us to respond in worship and to spread this good news.
