THE STORY OF FAITH REVIEWS

THE STORY OF FAITH is an opportunity for the whole family to listen to the most ancient Christian stories, tied together over several nights, to be reminded of "who we are." Tremendously entertaining for all ages, but also faith-nourishing, THE STORY OF FAITH is perfect for Lent, or as a special event any time of year.

 

The First Night

 

The story of what God has done in the life of Jesus, a performance of AFRAID!: THE GOSPEL OF MARK.

The Second Night

 

The story of who Jesus now calls us to be—a people of Light, as told in the SERMON ON THE MOUNT.  The Sermon is followed by a Conversation with the Actor. Frank reflects on the first two nights' experience of God's Word as drama. He takes questions from the audience, and concludes the evening with personal stories from his own faith journey.

The Third Night

 

The final night, HOLLYWOOD vs. FAITH, Frank takes a humorous but also deeply challenging look at the story that we are actually living, the struggle we face daily as Americans to live lives of real joy in the middle of a media-centered culture.

Frank concludes the mission with a call for us to enjoy what is good in the artistry of the media, but not to center our lives around their storytelling. He offers several simple suggestions of how we might embrace our part in the story of faith, and come to know the joy of truly being a People of Light.


 

A second mission is also available (for churches who have already hosted the first, or simply prefer these plays):

The mission may be shortened or lengthened:

  • The mission may be abbreviated to 2 nights
    (combining SERMON and HOLLYWOOD on the second night)

  • Or the mission may be extended to 4 nights
    (by adding LUKE or JAMES as the third night).

While Frank is in town performing the mission at night, he often visits schools during the day:

  • to perform SALT & LIGHT for Grades K-4
    (a 30-minute children's comedy)

  • to speak to Grades 5-8 about HOLLYWOOD vs. FAITH
    (a 40-minute version, geared specifically for Grades 5-8)

Be sure to contact other churches and schools in your community, who may wish to take advantage of Frank's being in town, to host a performance at their school—or perhaps, even co-host one of the evenings of THE STORY OF FAITH.
