The Gospel According To Jesus’ Enemies

Imagine lining up the enemies of Jesus and asking them why they said what they did about him; why they did what they did to him. Imagine no longer. Dann Ettner has done exactly that.

Along with an order of worship, which includes a responsive dialogue, a “”Gospel Speech Drama”” and original lyrics to familiar hymn tunes, Ettner has created six monologues portraying the enemies of Jesus.

Monologue characters
Caiaphas the High Priest .An Arresting Soldier
A Member of the Crowd who shouted “”Crucify Him””
Pilate
The Centurion
The Grave Guard

These services and testimonials will take listeners back in time to judge for themselves how God actually moved these enemies of Jesus to speak words of truth about the Son of God. They are perfect for either mid-week Lenten services or for the Sundays of Lent.

Dann J. Ettner , a lieutenant in the United States Air Force, is a Lutheran pastor serving Faith Lutheran Church in Pasadena, California. He is a graduate of California Lutheran College and Concordia Theological Seminary. He is the author of numerous articles and the book Seven Days Of Creation .
