Here are interviews I did with some folks before the event began:
Here's the first part of the article:
Lord, thank you for Kirk Cameron and his boldness to bring Your love and witness to America through these library readings. Multiply his efforts to embolden the millions who desire America to return to You.
An overflow crowd showed up for Kirk Cameron’s reading of his children’s book As You Growat the Scarsdale (NY) public library on Friday, Dec. 30. Other public libraries had refused to allow Cameron to read his book.
In Scarsdale more than 400 people were turned away, although Cameron and a team of staffers from publisher Brave Books held two sessions of 170 people each in the room they had rented.
The Farmer and the Belle: Saving Santaland is now on Peacock!
Praying this wonderful story about how magnificent we are in the Lord's eyes is seen -- and the message received -- by multitudes!
I was a NYC producer and play the manager of Belle, and we've been blessed with permission to share a promo code for merchandise on www.TheFarmerAndTheBelle.net: SWINGLE. That will get you a 15% off coupon.
Here's info on a Young Adult book they released two weeks ago:
For our last Headline Prayer Live of the year Intercessors for America reran our Thanksgiving episode, in which Joyce and I were on a team of intercessors reporting on answered prayer for the year.
This morning IFA posted a blog post I've been updating since 2012: "Take this Challenge in 2023." It includes several plans to read through the whole Bible in a year, and an invitation to join Joyce and I in reading through the C.S. Lewis Bible. Click for more details.
Pray that the program empowers the prayers of many and that the article inspires many to read through the whole Bible again or for the first time.
In just one year, the government outlawed all school-led prayer (1962) and banned school-sponsored Bible reading (1963). 17 years later, the public display of the Ten Commandments in schools was prohibited. The attacks are now accelerating against the values our country was founded upon. As Jonathan Park discovers, we don’t need to wring our hands in despair, we need to join our hands in prayer. 2 Chronicles 7:14 provides an answer. If we will humble ourselves and pray, God can heal our land.
This series takes you on a cross-country tour to discover the importance and power of prayer and repentance.
I play General Howe and a Sergeant.
Pray this wakes many young people up to the dark forces behind much of the unrest in the world these days!
I got to read part of the Christmas story (Luke 1:26-35 and Luke 2:1-7) to Westchester Chapel this morning, just before Dr. Linda Warren brought the Christmas message -- Make Room for the Lord -- from Luke 2:1-7.
This service is available for download free on iTunes, where you can also subscribe to our podcast. Search for "Westchester Chapel" on the iTunes Store.
Here's a brickfilm in which I played the priest and -- for a brief moment -- Harvey Silverstein from my one-man play, Views of the Manger, and my buddy Mac Nelson's monologue named after the character. Hope your whole family enjoys "Emmanuel":
And here's a link to an audio book in which I play Marcus Weber and Rev. Rutledge: My Father's World. It was produced by one of my students at the Lamplighter Guild for Creative Disciplines, Lael Lawless Goodrich, and she cast many of her classmates.
I'm cast in Book Two, so we're praying it does well enough for us to move forward.
A couple of years ago I did a photoshoot via video conference for Melissa Thomsen, who was working on an Advent series, so it was a delight to finally meet her in person at the Christian Worldview Film Festival with one of the paintings she did!
It's quite a remarkable story found in Luke 2:8-20. The Great King of Heaven is born on earth, and the announcement is made to livestock managers who live outdoors. He was born in a manger, a feeding trough for cows, so that no one can say He doesn't understand their poverty.
It was pretty easy for me to imagine seeing those angels, because I was able to draw from Joyce's wonderful piece, "The Shepherd's Daughter," which she performed in the Shepherd's Cave in Bethlehem:
Joyce and I are in charge of our Christmas Eve service. We're excited about doing a readers theatre performance with folks from our church of The Unlikely Wise Man. I'll play Robert Redfern, the unlikely Wise Man, who is a Scrooge-like character. Joyce will play the six-year-old Toddle.
It will be at 7 p.m. Eastern, live and over video conference only. Click here for video conference link. If you're in the area it will be at the Sonesta Hotel, 66 Hale Ave, White Plains, NY 10601.
February: Recorded voices of Rev. Rutledge and Marcus Weber for My Father's World.
March: Co-led annual workshop at Princeton University (via video conference). Played Mr. Alphabet in Lamplighter Theatre's audio drama Crown of Success and several voices on the podcast Famous Last Words.
You can see the recording of Views of the Manger below through Christmas Day.
