Over two nights in Marcus Loane Hall, students from Moore College performed The Mark Drama, a 90-minute retelling of the Gospel of Mark presented in a theatre-in-the-round format.
No professionals. No props. Just Gospel.
The impact
There was a great turnout on both nights, with the team even setting out extra chairs to fit everyone in. The majority of visitors were not Christians, creating a wonderful opportunity for the Gospel to be heard and discussed.
One student shared that their non-Christian friends came unexpectedly, loved the performance, and each took home a copy of Luke’s Gospel. Another described a deep and honest conversation with their non-believing sister after the Friday performance, reflecting on the goodness of Jesus and the truth of the Gospel.
A grandmother who attended said, “I’ve always kind of skipped over Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane, but seeing Him cry out to God to take the cup away hit me so deeply. I was so moved.”
Others spoke about continued conversations in the days that followed, friends who wanted to learn more about Jesus, and family members who were open to hearing the story for themselves.
These moments remind us that The Mark Drama was never just a performance. It was an opportunity to share the Gospel clearly and personally, sparking genuine conversations about who Jesus is and what it means to know Him.
A Word of Thanks
We are deeply grateful for the students who brought The Mark Drama to life for their preparation, humility, and faithfulness and for everyone who supported and attended.
It was a reminder that the Gospel doesn’t need anything added to it. It stands alone: powerful, living, and true.
