Ezell, an ordained pastor and gifted actor, presents an abbreviated
version of the good news of Jesus “according to Mark”
from the New Revised Standard Version. Using different backgrounds—wastelands
and grain fields, pasture lands and vineyards, lakes and streams,
churches and government buildings— Ezell tells Mark’s
story of Jesus from his baptism in the River Jordan to his crucifixion
and resurrection in Jerusalem.
Have
you ever heard Mark’s story of Jesus - Mark’s Good
News - at one sitting? We usually hear Mark’s story in bits
and pieces: Jesus healing a leper, telling a parable, being questioned
by Pilate, crying out from the cross. But we never hear the whole
story. And we never hear the story the way it was intended to
be told. In the first century, the “Jesus story” was
told in its entirety, and it was told verbally, not in writing.
The use of diverse settings, plus an original music score, will
change forever your “hearing” of Mark’s Good News.
