I just got off a Skype call with students at Oral Roberts University. I could see them in their classroom and they could see me in my office at The Helen Hayes Theatre, the smallest Broadway theatre. It was wonderful. What a bright bunch. When we were done I took them on a tour of the offices where ...

Like Dandelion Dust is amazing! So powerful. Mira Sorvino deserves another Oscar and Barry Pepper should get one, too!

I got to perform at Bethel Baptist Temple in Cincinnati on Sunday. The church is pastored by the father of Danny Cornett and the father of Audrey Cornett, two actors who have been a part of the MasterWorks program for years. I got this shot with Audrey, where she works at a Christian bookstore.

I just came across this photo of our prayer for John Forbes after he shared his amazing testimony during one of his master classes at The MasterWorks Festival. He is an international and Off-Broadway producer, and he's performed on and Off-Broadway and around the world.

Rich - I wanted to thank you once again for the awesome performance yesterday at our church!

This morning I performed at Bethel Baptist Church in Cincinnati. It's the church home to four MasterWorks alumni, including theatre students Danny Cornett and Audrey Cornett.

The little girl in this photo can only see what's right in front of her. Once her parents raise enough money they'll be able...

It was great to have you minister to our people. You certainly did make Paul come to life.

I enjoyed so much getting to spend some time with you and thoroughly enjoyed the fellowship.

I can see why my son says, "Rich Swingle is the most encouraging man I know."

Thank you so much.
