about

‘Christus Victor‘ literally means ‘Christ the Victor’. It’s easy to think of the amazing things that Jesus has overcome – death, hell, sin, eternal separation from God – pretty incredible stuff. Yet, in the 13 tracks of the album, Nick has also tried to reflect the fact that Christ is equally victorious in the more day to day, mundane detail of life. In friendships, in finance, even in facebook, Jesus is just as involved and just as victorious – if we let Him be.

Christus Victor is about all of that. It’s a record of testimonies from a real journey with God, a journey with highs, lows, and a lot of the very ordinary in between. Original artwork by Richie Wells summarises this concept excellently. Sheffield locals will spot many familiar features from the Steel City in Richie’s drawings – all of them proclaiming Christ as victor over our city and our lives.

Nick’s hope is that Christus Victor wouldn’t sound out of place alongside other, secular albums in your CD player or on your ipod. Yes, this is congregational worship music, with many songs written with our own church in mind, but Christus Victor also aims to challenge the musical norm – to push people further in their worship and to push the church’s songs out of the church and into the world, where God is waiting to build His kingdom.

Whether it’s by encouraging us to live a ‘Life Laid Down’, reminding us of our identity as children of our heavenly Father (’The Prodigal Song’) or lifting our eyes to the ultimate victory of Christ in ‘There Will Be a Day’, Christus Victor has something to offer everyone seeking to encounter the risen Christ in the midst of life.
