Christmas Dream -
This afternoon, I took my wife to what was supposed to be her birthday present. Yet, it was more of a present for me. I, you see, had never been to a ballet. It seemed to be a foreign form of expression that I did not understand. She loved ballet, and I thought “What better gift?” Now I have to tell you, I am 45 and thought that this would be torture, much to my discredit. This afternoon, I became a “born again” fan of ballet. I do not write emails that often, yet I could not let the day go without telling you……brilliant! I cried my eyes out! It was beautiful! I had never seen so much immaculate motion. The music, the sets, the experience itself was something for which I was completely unprepared. During the dance of “The Bride and Groom”, my wife tapped me on the shoulder and whispered “Are you okay?” With tears streaming down my cheeks, I whispered back “I love you”. Thank you, with all my heart, thank you and a very Merry Christmas…..DKC, Jackson, MS

Honestly, I came unwillingly to your performance of "The Hiding Place". It was another family "outing" which usually means that the night is going to end in fighting. The minute your dancers came on the stage, I could SEE the LOVE of Christ radiating from them. The way they danced...all I can say is, "wow!" I have never seen anything such a beautiful act of worship...ever. It really inspired me to not be afraid to dream with God and work to achieve my dreams... RW

I attended The Hiding Place at Grove City College in PA about a month ago. The experience was amazing! I am a ballet student and it was so meaningful to see two of the most important things in my life (Christ and ballet) combined in one performance. - HV

HALLELUJAH. I must say I am overwhelmed with praise and joy and wonder after last night's performance (The Scarlet Cord) in Vincennes. I spent a significant portion of the evening with tears on my cheeks. I served in China for a couple years, and so the themes of persecution, danger, betrayal, and steadfastness for Christ resonated deeply. Bravo on all counts--choreography, costumes, and story. . . Thank you for a treasured memory,and the ministry that you are carrying out with such excellence to God's glory. - Lori Netti, Vincennes, IN

I just saw your last performance in Chicago. It was amazing. I have never been ministered to in that way, it was impacting... MR

Tonight, we saw your performance of The Hiding Place at Elmbrook Church. It was splendid. The choreography was creative, dramatic and captivating; the emotion of the story, completely accessible.  I am encouraged tonight, not only because the story you presented was done so artfully, but also because my daughter, who has studied with the Milwaukee Ballet School for years, saw, tonight, the beauty and rightness of dancing in service to the Lord Jesus. She loves to dance. But the world of dance does not draw her. Your ministry excites and encourages her, however. So, thank you, thank you, thank you for listening to the voice of our Good Shepherd. -HB
