Similar to this popular deal, from 3 years ago. Sight and Sound Theatre are offering a free three-day streaming of JESUS theatrical production

Full disclosure and a trigger warning for the antitheists among us, this a theatre production about Jesus if that's not your thing feel free to move along.

That being said for anyone else this is actually a pretty good watch, I was pleasantly surprised with the quality 3 years ago and have happily watched it again. The kids really enjoyed it as well, it's basically a live theatrical performance of the story of Jesus with a brief Christian message at the end.

Here is the trailer for anyone interested.

And now for some cut and paste.

“Sight and Sound’s ‘Jesus’ show premiered 2018 and ran for two years, and the way it was produced was so cinematic in nature with the 300-foot wrap-around stage that it adapted perfectly to the screen,” Enck told The Christian Post. “When we saw it on the screen as a finished product, we were blown away by it. We’re so passionate about it because this story needs to be out there, told in this fresh new way.”

Over a million people have watched the live performance of “Jesus” at Sight & Sound’s theater in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
Katie Miller, corporate communications manager at Sight & Sound told CP that the production takes a "very personal approach to the Jesus story.”

“We meet so many characters and learn the story of who they were both before and after they encounter Jesus," she said. “After watching the show, so many people came to us and said, ‘That’s my story. That’s how Jesus rescued me.' Act One is about individual rescues from the Bible; Act Two is about our rescue.

"I think that's one of the most inspiring and unexpected things that came out of that show. People saw themselves in the characters and in the way that Jesus was meeting every single person, right where they were at, and bringing to them what they needed to be rescued.”

The event also dramatizes inspirational moments from Jesus’ life, from challenging the Pharisees to healing the sick and hurting. According to Enck, the writers wanted to highlight Jesus' humanity and ability to connect with those of every walk of life.

          Funny many years ago at school I wished a Muslim parent Happy Easter..then realised, back-peddled and apologised and said you've obviously not celebrating Easter.

          The response was, don't you apologise, we use any excuse to get together with family and eat! We'll be celebrating too! Just like you're not Muslim, but it didn't stop you and your family chowing down to celebrate Eid with us. The bbq will unite us all! Her oldest said - The haters are gunna starve.

    Easter was originally a pagan festival. It was to celebrate the fecundity of nature. Hence all the bunnies and eggs.The Christians put the religious celebration over the top of the Pagan one to try to suppress the original purpose. However, the bunnies and eggs have endured.

    Honestly if this is your thing then go for it. My issue is the influence that religions have over people who don’t believe their doctrines. The fact that many religions hid their abusive priests to protect the “brand”. My honest opinion is as long as your don’t hurt others you are free to believe what you want. Unfortunately religion has been used as a vehicle of oppression by too much of the “management”. The tomes have been cherry picked to justify the prejudices they want to push. The Bible has been used to justify burning heretics. Now it is used to oppress the LBGTQ+ community and women. The book is the same so it can only come down to what society allows the “management” to get away with. I do wonder what Jesus would say about some of the things done by some “Christians” in his name. They seem to have lost the fundamental lessons on acceptance, tolerance and sharing. If he was around today then some of them would accuse him of being a layabout socialist.

    I have no trouble with belief, I just think we would all be better off talking directly to your Deity and cutting out the self appointed middle men. Ask why an all powerful Deity would care about consensual adult sex whilst his representatives were abusing children and their managers were hiding it? Corrupting society around them and leaving the child disbelieved and punished for their wickedness. How much lower can any member of society go let alone people who are meant to be our “moral” guides. Also why can only men present their message? I’m now wondering about anatomy and radars. Belief shouldn’t be blindly followed. As we have seen the more fundamentalist the society the more oppressed minorities are and the more people are hurt. This applies to any belief system, not just religious ones. Draw comfort from your religion but don’t use it as a cudgel against others.

    It isn’t the concept of a God that is the issue it is what is being done in their name that is the problem.

          See in my opinion this is a BS rule and i don't take it with a grain of salt.
          I think an abortion is very relevant in todays society, particularly with how advanced medicine is in detecting pre-birth diagnoses. Why make a child come out and suffer in the name of religion. Again i think these stupid Man-made rules tarnish the belief. Also the poor women who have been victims, should not hve to live with the torture of being subjected to something against their will and live with the reminder.
          As does the ridiculous rules outlined by @try2bhelpful just below..
          I tell you the worst thing to come into religion is people thinking they know whats best for the religion. if they were truly practicing the path of Jesus if thats what they are claiming to be, they would not have such ridiculous rules.
          I know you think i sound like an athiest.., But i have always considered myself a practical catholic, i try to embrace the positives but dismiss the negatives. I just use the faith to have some guiding principles in life, hoping that if for some reason there is an afterlife, that i try to have good enough values to end up in the right place..

          See this is where people are wrong. Christian means "Christ-like". Jesus never said abortion is wrong. Jesus did say, "let he who.is without sin cast the first stone".

          People grab stuff from the Old Testament and claim it's a Christian ideal, but it's not, he wasn't born. The Old Testament is fear and hatred. The Gospels of the Mew Testament (the stuff attributed to Jesus) is all about peace love and mungbeans. He championed the outcasts, told the poor to just be good people and you'll be fine. He told the wealthy you're stuffed.

          The enduring message iis "Love one another, as I have loved you". Pretty bloody simple. Yet so many so-called Christians seem to forget this one simple instruction. Haters can't be Christians.

          I don't believe in god, but Jesus was a pretty insightful guy.

    Christmas, the 'birth' of Jesus is the same day every year…25th December, but apparently Easter Sunday, the day of their death/resurrection, is based on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox.

    Makes total sense. You'd think those gospel writers would have noted down the date they died a bit better.

      Or at least settled on a date.

      Easter and Christmas was designed to overlay the Pagan festivals already held at those times of year. It is why you get bunnies and eggs at Easter and things like Yule logs with Christmas.

      Note: Christians (who have an idea what they are talking about) don't believe Jusus was born in December.

      The name easter comes from the pagan fertility godess Ēostre. Was pretty funny to hear some pearl clutching Christians complaining in the shops. Apparently the shop was being anti christian because their easter eggs didnt have "easter" written on them.

      OMG my pagan fertility festival eggs dont have the pagan godess name written on them! How unchristian of them!

      From my understanding of previous religious posts, the owner of ozbargan is devout and indeed the first ever post on ozbargan was one of a religious nature!

      So I don't think there will be in a change to the posting guidelines to exclude such deals.

        Didn't know that. I have no issue with people holding a religion. Just keep it to themselves I say. A "bargain" website is not a place I peruse for people to vehemently defend what they consider to be "deals" but are realistically just pathetic conversion tactics.

      If there is one thing that everyone can agree on - "Fk RRP!"

      Now that's a religion I'd join.

      Does it matter? The founder scotty is also a devote Christian.

    a trigger warning for the antitheists

    Sounds like somebody's triggered, and it's not us
