Watch as they learn her interesting story of spiritual things and how they differ from the story of Christ, all the while anticipating her response to the God of all gods. While the story is being shared, see it come alive through drama, music and art presented by the EBC Worship Choir & Orchestra, Worship Players and Bridge ministries. Bring your friends and family to see the glory and resurrection of King Jesus presented in living color.
