Bethlehem’s Cry

Friday, December 6
The Answers Center Auditorium at the Ark Encounter
Performance begins at 6:30 p.m. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m.

Bethlehem’s Cry follows the life of Bea—a young girl who is excited when some of her relatives stay with them during the census, even though they have to stay in the lower room with the animals. One of her cousins, Mary, is pregnant with a baby just like her mom was a few months ago with Bea’s baby brother! But Bea is filled with questions as shepherds claiming to have seen angels visit when her newborn baby cousin Jesus is born. And a couple years later, wise men show up at the door! How come her baby brother didn’t get entertaining visitors and lavish gifts like gold? When everything in Bea’s life seems to be going well, tragedy strikes her little town, and Bea is left with grief, fear, and doubt in God. Why would a loving God allow such awful events to happen? Was he not powerful enough to stop bad things from happening? As Bea grows up and watches Jesus’ life, from his birth in a lowly manger to his death on the cross, she begins to find the answers she had been longing for all these years. This heart-wrenching drama explores the depth of human grief and suffering in a sinful world where God is the only hope.
