Recreated

Description

Wes’s seventh album Recreated is a bold, worshipful exploration of creation and recreation.

“I kept thinking about that moment in Genesis, at the start of everything, where there was darkness, no light, no life, just a blank canvas for the Creator. And then, all the sudden, there was this explosion of light and color and life! And all of it happened because God spoke it into existence,” says Wes of the album’s theme.

“I see the same thing mirrored in the New Testament recreation of those who put their faith in Jesus. Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come.”

Recreated is an ambitious, beautifully crafted album full of joyful anthems for the Church, intimate devotional worship, and heart-felt, compassionate offerings to those who search for peace and hope.

“The bottom line,” says Wes, “Is that I truly believe that when Christ saves us, we truly are made into new creations. We’re not perfect, but we no longer find our identity in the darkness that we once were, no longer bound by our mistakes and sin. Our new identity is in Jesus himself. We are truly recreated!”
