Mary of Magdala

I am really nervous tonight. Tomorrow night, Chris and I are tag-team preaching for the first time. That is enough to make me nervous, but we are also acting. I am Mary Magdalene and he is Peter. We are doing this for our community services leading up to Easter. Each week a different pastor is a different person from the Gospel of John. The problem is that I don’t act. I never have and I think it may be the first thing in a long time that I have truly felt fear about doing. I can’t even seem to practice with Chris. My mouth is just like sewn shut. I think that I will be able to do it, but not until I’m in front of everyone and don’t have any choice. Of course that worries me because what if I’m wrong and I still can’t do it??? I think I can, I think I can…

    There’s no acting required to become Mary Magdalen. Just tap into your Sacred Femininity and you will ride a wave of emotion that unites all us women back to the most beloved companion of Yeshua.

    Ha Ha! Yeah, I think I was! It really did go a lot better than I expected. I did get into it. But I was really nervous and kinda freak out at the beginning when I realized I hadn’t told anyone I needed a microphone, but then I did it without anyways and was fine. Yay!
