Jesus Christ Superstar

An unexpected blessing and another way in Readying for Holy Week. What a wonderful evening I had; thank you to my friend who is helping me enjoy a variety of cultural opportunities within the area! We watched JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, the groundbreaking theatrical masterpiece by the legendary writing team of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

I vaguely remember when I was a pre-teen there being controversy around this drama; but today, I find myself being moved by the emotional pull of songs, particularly Pilate's Dream and the Garden of Gethsemane. I am also led to question some of my own boxset of images I have of Jesus particularly, fully human:fully divine and fear:desire to do God's will.
