DALLAS, TX, March 13, 2013
/EIN Presswire/ -- "The Father's House Foundation is proud to support the Promise in Glen Rose, Texas as it continues a long tradition of outdoor religious drama. The Promise provides the audience a Gospel experience like never experienced before. We have supported this wonderful ministry for several years, and with your support look forward to supporting them for years to come," says Byron Stinson, Founder of the FHEF.
In 1984, the dream began. It was the dream of introducing a loving, laughing, approachable Jesus to the world in a casual, outdoor environment. This dream became a reality with the opening of The Promise in November of 1989. What began as a passion play has become an exciting, live musical drama, a Texas tourist destination, and a powerful testimony to the entire world.
The Promise was originally developed by Word Music in cooperation with Kingdom Development Company from the original script by Jan Dargatz and with music produced by Gary Rhodes. Narrated by a grandfather and his grandchildren, the story begins on the banks of the Paluxy River in historical Glen Rose, Texas. When the topic of conversation changes from dinosaur tracks to the upcoming birth of the grandchildren's youngest sibling, they are reminded that every life is special to God. In fact, one baby was so special that God gave Him as "A Promise".
Straight out of the pages of scripture, the narrators and audience witness the birth, life, death, resurrection and triumphant ascension of Jesus Christ. Utilizing an award-winning musical score, live animals, and a cast and crew of over 100 dedicated Christians, The Promise is sure to be the most memorable theater experience of a lifetime.
The Promise is performed in the largest permanent outdoor stage in the state. The Texas Amphitheater is an impressive 3,200-seat venue designed to create a perfect atmosphere for this remarkable production. In addition, it is a host to many features exclusive to outdoor theaters throughout the nation. When implemented, it gives the viewer a theater experience unlike any other.
The Father's House is thrilled to support a ministry like The Promise, reaching thousands with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
