The Sense to Believe: An Easter Play in Four Acts

By Elizabeth G. Honaker

The subject of light is a theme found throughout the Bible: God created light on the fourth day of Creation; Moses' first revelation of God came through a burning bush; several of the prophets reported encountering beings of light who delivered messages from God; and then there is the Light of the World, Jesus Christ. As with any dramatist, I wanted to explore my chosen subject in a fresh way. I "lit" on the miracle of the Jerusalemite who was healed in a wondrous way by the Master Healer Himself. As I read and reread portions of John's Gospel that contains this story, I was fascinated by the new insights I "saw": the yearning of a blind man who knew his need; the disdain of the religious leaders who already believed they "saw"; the amazement of people who witnessed a decaying corpse infused with abundant, new life. I saw that these are much more than a string of stories, somehow related because of the area in which they occurred. Instead, they are a Grand Theme designed by a Father of Light who wants all to see Love in action.
