Robert Brock will perform Gospel of Mark at V.P. Henry In the performance Gospel of Mark, Brock recreates the book as a storyteller, which is how early Christians were exposed to the work during an age when printing was prohibitively expensive and most people were illiterate. Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) By Duane Bonifer COLUMBIA, KY - The Gospel of Mark will literally come to life at Lindsey Wilson College. Robert Brock will perform the Gospel of Mark at 2pmCT, Sunday, September 29, and at 7pmCT, Monday, September 30, 2013 in the Lindsey Wilson College V.P. Henry Auditorium, 210 Lindsey Wilson Street, Columbia, KY. Contact Brock at brockr@lindsey.edu or 270-590-4803. "The thing that's hard to get across to some people is how dramatic this gospel is," Brock said. "When you tell someone that you are going to perform of the Gospel of Mark, it sounds like someone up there on the stage repeating the whole Gospel, which would be really boring. But it's far from that. After I have done these shows, people have said, 'It brought the scriptures to life in a way I didn't know it could.'" In the performance Gospel of Mark, Brock recreates the book as a storyteller, which is how early Christians were exposed to the work during an age when printing was prohibitively expensive and most people were illiterate. "If you think of the Gospel, it's a story that is told by a storyteller, and that's what I bring to life -- the storyteller," Brock said. "There is so much drama in the Gospel and so many interesting events. Mark just rolls along and moves this story. It comes to life." Brock got the idea to perform an entire book from the New Testament about seven years ago when he saw an actor perform the Gospel of Mark. Brock then studied and performed the Gospel of John, followed by the Book of Revelation before focusing on the Gospel of Mark. "All of them have been life-changing, to get that close to scripture," Brock said. "When you memorize something, it becomes alive in a way that reading it never can. It's been a real powerful experience." - DUANE BONIFER, Public Relations Director, Lindsey Wilson College, Columbia, KY.
