It’s been over 400 years since the people of God have heard a word from the Lord. All of the sudden, Gabriel starts popping up around town. First Zechariah, then Mary gets a visit from the same angel who visited Daniel long ago. How do they respond? How would you or I respond? Is He really coming? What will this Messiah be like? Will He be a warrior king, a knight in shining armor, or born like a refugee to a poor family with no place to go? Sleepers, Wake! takes a quick witted but hard studied contemporary look at the stories from the beginning of Luke, leading up to the birth of John the Baptist. Gabriel’s visits to Zechariah and Mary, and Mary’s visit to Elizabeth are among the re-imagined scenes. With story brought to life in a modern context, and songs to touch the heart, Sleepers, Wake! reminds us to receive the Messiah into our life on His terms, and put off whatever might be in His way.
