Praise the Lord!

Originally written in 2012. 

When I was a kid, one of my favorite things to do was to go to a theater known as Sight & Sound. It is a Christian stage theater where they perform Broadway-quality plays based on Bible stories. They are amazing! For example, they recently ran a season of Joseph. It was incredible! They took the Biblical story, portrayed it accurately, added possible fictional parts to get from Point A to Point B, and outstanding music. When you sit and watch the show, you literally feel like you are living through a moment in the Bible. They always tie in salvation, and have staff members designated to talk to people after the show, if they want more information about getting to heaven. It's a great work that they are doing in Lancaster, PA, and Branson, MO. 

Now I can't promise that every single actor or employee is saved, but like Chick-fil-A, they are a Christian company. 

From the production Joseph by Sight & Sound Theaters

My favorite production is Noah. They haven't shown it since I was around 10 years old. It was so colorful and they had all kinds of live animals and you felt like you were in the ark during the storm. I vividly remember understanding what Noah had to go through as he preached to his friends and warned them of Gods judgement, and they mocked him. That was a powerful feeling. I have seen almost all of the productions since Noah, but none of them compare!

I got to meet the director of the theater last year, and I asked him if they were ever going to bring Noah back. He couldn't tell me, but told me to wait a couple of weeks to find out what the new show would be for 2013. Wouldn't you know they brought back Noah when I have absolutely no way to see it?? 

While Noah is my favorite production, Joseph contained my favorite song. It's just a simple song of praise and I don't even know if there is more to it than the thirty second blurb in the show.

   

It goes like this:

Praise the Lord of creation!

The Father of all mankind! 

Lift your voice in celebration 

Of His peace to give, His love to find!

Isn't that wonderful? I love to praise the Lord. You know, it's all about Him. He has done so much for me, the least I can do is praise Him with every breath I take.
