Are you free in Oxford tonight, in the Isle of Wight on Friday, in Essex on Saturday or near Harrow on Sunday? You should get yourself to Andrew Peterson‘s concert with Eric Peters. They are both American singer songwriters who tell the gospel story powerfully in song. You might remember Andrew Peterson from this blog before – he’s the author of the much loved Matthew’s Begats. He and his friend Eric sing of God’s grace and goodness in creation, in tough times, in the Lord Jesus. We heard them in Birmingham last night and enjoyed it very much and came home laden with new music to listen to.
Andrew sang this song which includes the lines:
I thought that all my struggles
Would be victories by now
But I confess
That the mess is there.
Just the song for me!
And Eric sang this:
So, my recommendation is that if you’re available, you should go. Really. Details of the concerts can be found on Andrew’s website – scroll to the bottom of the page to find the links.
Thank you so much for this recommendation. I just bought the CD ‘After All These Years’ and think it’s absolutely wonderful. Thanks.
So glad you liked it! Have been listening to it on repeat in my kitchen since we went to hear him.
