Join us this Sunday at 10:00 am in-person or online to celebrate the Children’s Musical. Where they will be performing Through the Roof ! a play based on Luke 5:17-26 written by Terry Kirkland.
The play recalls the story of when Jesus was in Capernaum teaching, among the attendees were Pharisees and teachers of the law from various regions. Amidst this gathering, a group of men arrived carrying their paralytic friend. Unable to navigate through the crowd, they ingeniously lowered their friend from the roof directly in front of Jesus. Recognizing their faith, Jesus declared the man’s sins forgiven, causing a stir among the religious leaders present.
Addressing the silent accusations of blasphemy, Jesus posed a question to the Pharisees and teachers of the law, challenging their understanding of His authority. To demonstrate His divine power to forgive sins, He commanded the paralyzed man to rise, pick up his mat, and return home. The man did just that, leaving the crowd in awe. This event left a profound impact, not only showcasing Jesus’s healing powers but also affirming His authority to forgive sins. The crowd, filled with reverence, acknowledged that they had witnessed something truly extraordinary that day.
