One of the many things I love about going to a Christian school with all my Christian friends is that we get to worship God whenever we want and however we want. A few weeks ago Guthrie Collins came up to me and some other high school students, asking us if we would be interested in performing a skit with him in showcase. Of course, we all accepted to offer and were very excited about the idea.
Guthrie said that at his youth camp he goes to over the summer some of the counselors performed this skit. So he sent the video to us which included Michelle Postiff, Taylor Richards, Sophia Zelenka, Mike Warren, Hayley Mohr, Natalie Kapanka, Patrick Asdell, Sydni Clark, David Borgeson and me. As I watched this video I just had so much excitement. It was a great message and it would be a great way to show other people our testimony.
The song that we performed to was “He Will Carry Me”. Within the skit, we acted out different stories from the Bible that led up to Jesus' resurrection. We started off with the Bible story of baby Moses being put on a basket by his mother in to a river to escape the Egyptians. Then we moved on to the story of Ester. Which led to Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the fiery furnace. One of my favorite scenes we performed was David and Goliath. There were a few other stories in between there but it finally led up to led up to Jesus rising from the grave.
This was a very powerful, outspoken skit I was happy to be apart of. It was very moving and I feel like it got a lot of attention at showcase. Showcase is a secular event where most of the audience may not have understood some of the message. But after watching us, hopefully we were a good testimony to them. I'd love to do something like this again in the near future!
