The goal of this project is to test the power of an original play "They Belong To God, Too!"--about Jesus during his teenage years--to help people with faith issues in their own lives. The project included the study of drama, conceiving the play, biblical-historical and cultural research, writing the play, performing it, evaluating its impact on the audience, and reflecting on the theological significance of such religious drama as well as its usefulness for ministry. The study concluded that drama is a valuable tool to express religious ideas and to teach the history and culture of Jesus' day.
