Rediscovering the Bible

by Kim Shippey

This week the Sentinel talks with an actor and with a playwright who are finding new audiences for the Bible.

Over the past year, Bruce Kuhn, who played in Les Misérables on Broadway for three years, has been enthralling students on college campuses across the United States with his performances of the Gospel according to St. Luke.

In a Sentinel interview, he told us how at the close of each performance he turns to the audience and says, with a smile, that copies of the "script" are available for those who would like them. One young student at Florida State University couldn't wait to pick up her copy in the lobby and was surprised to be presented with a modern translation of the Bible opened at the book of Luke. "You mean that really was the Bible!" said the incredulous student, reaching for the special gift provided by the organizers, Intervarsity Christian Fellowship—an interdenominational ministry on six hundred college campuses.
