- “What a wonderful production you put on last night.”
- “I really enjoyed it last night. Trust you were both encouraged by the performances.
- “Now the day has come and Called to Follow is coming into the light. God has seen it all from the first stirrings of creation, and watched over it and has seen you and looks upon you with love.”
- “It was amazing Heather!”
- “I would like to say how much my friend, Jenny and I enjoyed the Musical that the very talented group gave us on Friday evening. My friend is a fairly new Christian and was thrilled with everything, especially recognising all the different parts of the story.”
- “I wanted to thank you for a very special evening last night. The skill and effort required is incredible – a real gift from God. It was moving to see Jesus’ life laid out for us. So often we focus on a single episode and study it in great detail. It was refreshing to zoom out and remember it was a whole. “

Who are you following? Who is your anchor? Can you help challenge others about who they are following? My prayer is that this Christian musical will draw you closer to Jesus and strengthen your call to follow Him, so that you go out to tell others and show His wonderful love for all, whatever their background and whatever their past misdeeds. May you use and adapt the musical for church, youth and children groups.
