“The Promise: A New Musical”

The Promise is a new musical by Laura Jernigan that reimagines the ancient story of the family of Abraham, Sarah, Hagar, Ishmael, and Isaac. Drawing from Bible stories found in Genesis and from Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions, The Promise explores God’s promises to this particular family tree, including the expanding promise to “bless all the families of the earth.” Weaving together narration and songs, this presentation encourages us to journey toward the promise and seek the blessings of reconciliation for our global family tree.
