Pilgrim is a modern musical adaptation of John Bunyan's classic work, Pilgrim's Progress. It was performed in spring 2009 by the high school students at my church. They did a great job. The script is by theatre professionals (and members of our church) Janice Mays and Cathy Mays. The music is by various artists, including Bob Kauflin, Zach Jones and Mark Altrogge. You can order a DVD of the production here.
I think that Dr. Russell Moore nails it in his commentary on the Glenn Beck rally. Amen.
"Self-will and prayer are both ways of getting things done. At the center of self-will is me, carving a world in my image, but at the center of prayer is God, carving me in his Son's image." - Paul E. Miller in A Praying Life.

Trailer is compelling. I'm sure the DVD will be wonderful. Well done to the youth in the program.
My favorite line of P.P. is Goodwill's query to Christian, ". . . [I]s the celestial glory of so little esteem with him, that he counteth it not worth running the hazard of a few difficulties to obtain it?" (John Bunyan, Pilgrim's Progress, Part 1, 2nd Stage)
Blessings.
