Arts Above the Realm hasn't added a story.
20 years ago, while sitting on the stairs in my home in Memphis, TN, I was studying Hebrews 12:8 - But if ye be without chastisement whereof all are partakers, then ye be bastards and not sons.
Immediately after that revelation, the Lord spoke to my heart, "William there are bastards in the Pulpit". His hand pressed upon me so - that right then and there I wrote the introduction. Within 45 days the book was done. There is not a page in this book that fails to present scripture or reference to it regarding this troubling reality that plagues the church today.
On December 8, 2018, this book takes on a new dimension by coming to the theater with a theatrical production that is gripping, bold and fearless in bringing truth to a reality within the Christian community that remains silent. God is telling many to speak out and expose the falsehood, false shepherds and wolves in sheep clothing.
As a playwright and director, I need your support to make this production all that God wants it to be.
Whether you give $1 or $1,000 you are supporting a bold truth that will liberate people to know God as their Heavenly Father with no need to live in fear, performance or to traditions that make null and void the commandments of God!
Perks
This theatrical production is very poetic. Your $10 contribution will get you the latest CD of William's Poetry. A collection of 18 poems that will speak to your spirit and heart.
Read the book that has become a best seller over the years and is grabbing the core of God's people to return to Him with their whole heart! Exposing the problem of bastards in the pulpit is not a choice as servants of God. Rather, it is a mandate, an irrevocable order, a command bearing a weight of responsibility that extends into eternity. It is time for the Body of Christ to boldly identify the difference between one who has been purged from self-interests, political agendas, fear of faces, and hidden sins, even to one who justifies his sins because of grace. In these days of increasing apostasy, we must realize there are sons and then there are bastards...in the pulpit.
Select a book of your choice from William Owens! Naked Before God - Words that express my heart. 44 poems that expose our deepest hearts cry. Poems for America - A poem written everyday during the elections of 2016 to ignite a return back to God. Bastards in the Pulpit - Exposing those who have no relationship with God, but have made themselves leaders of God's people. Warriors Arise! - Understanding Spiritual Life, Spiritual Warfare and Spiritual Maturity.
You'll receive both the CD of poetry and the book!
You'll receive 2 copies of Bastards in the Pulpit and 4 VIP tickets to the production. Perfect for couples to experience this theatrical production together!
You'll spend a day in Tyler, TX with the Playwright / Director William Owens. Starting at 9AM and you'll just tag along as William carries out the normal activity of putting this production together. But that's not all, after dinner, you'll then join him for rehearsals with the casts. Includes 2 VIP tickets. (Dinner is also covered)
The playwright and selected members of the casts will visit your business, ministry or event and perform a section of the play. Includes 10 Reserved seating tickets, and 4 VIP tickets and 10 copies of the book!
