Further Light
Dec 24, 2023A play performed by the Community in Plymouth for Thanksgiving 2023. A now-little-known sermon by their beloved pastor, John Robinson, sent the Pilgrims of Leyden to the New World in hopes of receiving further light from God's Word. Where would this hope take them?
Into the fading of their first dreams of restoring the primitive pattern of the first church walked two precious seeds of hope: the son of John Robinson, Isaac, and Roger Williams.
This play describes what has often happened when the hope of "dreamers" (or are they prophets?) meets what William Bradford, governor of Plymouth Plantation, called "the insurgency of necessity." When will men of faith stand up and walk true to the dreams of their founders, their apostles?
