A Mission Bite from CBF:: Unexpected Joys Amid the Pandemic

For the last ten years, we have worked with university students and young adults. We love walking with them through the difficult decisions of life that arise in these formative years: what to major in, who to marry, what to believe. It is our great joy to bring Jesus into these conversations and relationships if only for a time. Sometimes we may only have a student for a semester before they graduate. If we’re lucky, they’ll find us early in their college days and we’ll have a few years with them. But, eventually, they leave, returning to their home islands and villages and, sometimes, countries far away. Saying these goodbyes is one of hardest things we do in ministry.

When students leave, they sign our guestbook, many leaving notes of the impact that God has had on their lives through our ministry. Occasionally, we’ll get an email, a Facebook message, or a call on Skype. These come less frequently as the months and years go by.

On any given normal week prior to the pandemic, we’d have dozens of students in our homes for various ministry activities. As we transitioned online, we weren’t sure what would become of our ministry or our church. Interestingly enough, our church has more people attending online than we averaged weekly. Our ministry continues also, online. While we miss the large group meetings in our home, our Zoom Bible studies have been an unexpected joy amid this pandemic. Meeting online has allowed former students from across our country and around the globe to join with us to read scripture, pray, and worship together once again. This is one thing we will miss when life returns to normal.

Join us for a table reading of Mike Massar's 2-Act play, The Mythmakers. Act I will air tonight at 6:00 pm on https:live.woodlandbc.org.

A Synopsis

It could be argued that the two literary giants of the twentieth century were C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. Their writings have stirred the imaginations of millions of people. However, it is interesting that their writings came about at all. Both of these men were trained academics in the field of literature – Lewis being the premiere scholar on sixteenth century English literature and Tolkien being the preeminent philologist of his time. Their lives were solidly entrenched in the university, and they lived out the structured lives of Oxford faculty members, better known as Oxford “dons.” Thus, it is surprising that from the prescribed existence of 20th century scholarship at Oxford University, these two would become famous for their imaginative works of fiction.

Their biographies are well-known. One can simply journey to the nearest bookstore and encounter marvelous works recording their histories. The Mythmakers examines the nature of their friendship that sparked such creativity. Without each other, Tolkien and Lewis would never have produced some of their most beloved work. It was the spark of their friendship that inspired immortal worlds which so many have been privileged to visit.

The Mythmakers is an attempt to explore the synergy of the creative genius of these two friends. It could be called a documentary drama, because much of the dialogue comes from the recorded words of Lewis and Tolkien. But because so many of their conversations have been alluded to but not transcribed, one can only imagine what was said and heard, not to mention imagined interactions. Thus, The Mythmakers is an invitation to examine the wonder of creation that takes place between friends.

But The Mythmakers is more than just the friendship of Lewis and Tolkien. A delightful piece of lagniappe involves the love affairs of these two literary giants. Their spouses, Joy and Edith, are brilliant complements to their husbands.

The Mythmakers invites you into the world of Lewis and Tolkien and the worlds they created. Enjoy!
