Forever

Episode Synopsis

This is the first single from my upcoming album, "Journey". Written in both North London and Central Switzerland, it's a reflection on the immortal words of Lesslie Newbigin in light of the tumultous times we live in in the UK. "I am neither an optimist, nor a pessimist - Jesus Christ is risen from the dead."

Opening with the shared footsteps of my wife and me through the crunchy snow of Engstligenalp, near Interlaken, Forever winds its way through warm nu-disco melodies and an enrapturing bassline to tell a story of hope in the face of uncertainty as I wrestle with a world that feels less certain underfoot. Ultimately, 'Forever' takes solace in the immovable truth of Jesus' resurrection, which sets each of our futures in Christ in ultimate security, no matter what we face in today's volatile climate.

It represents the first of a series of singles through which I look at my own personal wrestles with faith over the past 4-5 years and I hope you enjoy the trip.

The single drops on Bandcamp on Friday 20th September, followed by Spotify, Apple Music and all other major platforms on Friday 27th September.
