Perspectives in the First Person #3
When Jesus walked the roads of Jerusalem, He affected people. He was loved and He was hated. He was rejected and He was embraced. Here is a series of four monologues (with an additional brief appearance by John, the disciple), written from the perspective of those who stood at the cross of Jesus. There are two women (Mary Magdalene and Mary, Jesus' mother) and two men (the Roman centurion and a friend of the thief on the cross). Two who loved Jesus and two who didn't understand him. These monologues provide a great cross-section exploring the real-life emotions and struggles of those who encountered Jesus. Well suited for Lent, Good Friday, or Easter. For use individually or as a complete service. Additional scripture and narration included. Each monologue is available separately.
