A common phrase you might hear in Christian circles is “God’s timing is not our timing.” It’s not a direct quote from scripture, but there might be reason to consider it. In this special theatrical presentation, we meet the lame man from Acts 3 & 4. Every day he sits at the Beautiful Gate begging for coins until he is healed by Peter and John. What we often miss is that this man is nearly 40 years old! This means he likely saw Jesus come to the Temple during His ministry. Have you ever thought about why Jesus never healed him himself?
EDIT: Michael switched between describing his character as being lame and having leprosy. The man from Acts 3 & 4 did not have leprosy as far as we know. Michael just got a little mixed up in his script :) Please enjoy the presentation regardless.
Thank you to God’s Gathering Place in Conover, WI, for letting us film.
