The
Story: Kendra, a modern day single mother, is struggling to overcome a life filled with difficulty and regret. At a rehearsal for a church Christmas concert, feelings of shame and guilt overwhelm Kendra and she doubts her worthiness to perform. Jacob, her friend and fellow soloist, tells her the story of “Sarah”, a woman mentioned briefly in the Bible whose life was dramatically changed by Jesus Christ during his ministry. As the audience is transported back to the dusty streets of Jerusalem 2,000 years ago, other historical New Testament figures come to life for Kendra as well including Jesus, his mother Mary, Nathaniel and Jesus' disciples. The character and motives of Judas Iscariot, in particular, are explored and developed. Fictitious characters also play a part as the story unfolds. Tyras, a wealthy and arrogant politician, marries Sarah while Mordecai - Tyras' charming, but scheming accountant - has his own agenda. How did Christ’s life affect those around him and what was expected of the prophesied Messiah? What motivated a disciple and follower of Christ to ultimately betray his friend and Savior? Those questions and others are explored in this compelling musical. As Sarah and Kendra both learn of the Savior’s message of love and hope, and witness his redeeming sacrifice, their lives are forever transformed.

Reviews of Power in His Touch (album) & of
Power in His Touch (musical): |
||
"An impressive
musical score and amazing performances." Chris Davis, Davis County Clipper |
||
"Call’s (superb) musical numbers move the
show along nicely...which means Call’s CD is as much worth
purchasing as a ticket to the show." Audrey Rock-Richardson, Transcript Bulletin |
||
“The music is stirring and moving
and carries the show along seamlessly … but the greatest strength of
the production is its message, a powerful and timely one for this
Easter season.” Carma Wadley, The Deseret Morning News |
||
"Your production evoked additional
personal understanding of the message of Christ ... I feel sure that
all will have a desire to live better lives, especially the viewing
audience." Elaine L. Jack |
