The Queen's Journal:
“A tour de force”

almost magnetic.”

Testimonials:
I have often
questioned whether the King James version of the Bible has anything to say to us
21st-Century folk . . . until I saw Matthew Gibson's performance of
the Gospel of St. Mark. Gifted and experienced Shakespearian actor that he is,
Matthew was so engaging and compelling that I found myself inspired and
enlightened. And as a United Church preacher, I thought I knew the gospel!
Months after experiencing "Gospel of St. Mark” I am still
revelling in the images and language that
Matthew makes so vivid and vital. God's Secretaries who wrote the King James
Version and Mark who wrote the gospel would be grateful and proud of the way
Matthew Gibson brings the Gospel of Mark alive.
