Take Up Your Cross

Our guest preacher today at Westchester Chapel works in a region which is closed to the Gospel, so for the safety of all involved in that work we didn't record the message. It was based on Matthew 16:13-28, which I dramatized during the service. That performance is mixed with my performance of...

Born on the same year

Thank you so much for your amazing ministry! My 15 year old daughter and I saw last weekend's performance (of The Revelation), and she verbalized to me exactly what I was thinking: "EVERYONE needs to see 'Revelation'." Do you have any future plans of performing it again in the tri-state ar...

The producers of Ruth have expressed interest in casting me in the role of Reverend Benjamin Morris if they secure funding for the project. So pray for funding to be secured and like their Facebook page. They're hoping to have an $8M budget.

The Revelation: a timely message of Hope

When we were setting the date of the 15th Anniversary performance of my one-man play The Revelation we were all thinking it would be in March, but one conflict after the other pushed it back to next Saturday. Little did we know that the timing would make it a comfort to us all as we mour...

42

Pray about seeing the film 42. It shows Jackie Robinson's experience as the first African American in US pro baseball. The film makes it clear that Branch Rickey, the man who opened the way for this to happen, was a Christian. On a side note, Branch was name the Old Testament prophets gave the ...

The Revelation Off-Broadway

I remember seeing Rich perform this back in the day at The Lamb's Theater. "The Revelation" is a stunning, contemporary, and vivid work that exceeds every expectation. It's as though John himself is personally sharing his vision with you and every mystery is revealed.

Forty Lashes Minus One

Pastor Randy Solomon created an unforgettable Good Friday service. We started tasting olives to remember the Garden of Gethsemane (which means "olive press"), saw the fire where Peter denied that he knew the Lord, heard the rooster crow; we even smelled the vinegar when the sponge was...
