On Saturday morning, I performed a part of the Gospel of Luke for a small group of men at my local church. This was the first public performance of The Gospel of Luke Project.
It was a small group, and rather than take an hour and a half of their time, I asked them to pick a chapter from one to nine. Someone called out, “six!” and that seemed like a good choice because that chapter contains the sermon on the plain.
It was very nice to see how people reacted to this project, with a ten minute version. It was positive, and gave me confidence that the entire project can work, and work well.
Tomorrow morning, I will be visiting with administrators at the Idaho Department of Corrections about The Gospel of Luke Project, to discuss performing the Gospel of Luke at the prisons. The performance on Saturday convinces me that this can be a valuable exercise, and could even be well received!
It has also been valuable because I am encouraged to contact other venues in the area, including assisted living facilities and schools. This can be a success.
