I am amazed at his insight into the scriptures as he brings them alive with laughter and tears from the congregation. Our youth and adults have enjoyed acting in them. Though I have seen them many times over the years, I never get tired of seeing them once again.  And, I always learn some new nugget of truth.\u003cbr\u003eDavid McLean, Sr. Pastor,\u003cbr\u003eFellowship of Christ Church, Cary, NC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Inn Keeper's Wife retells the familiar story of Christ's birth with a perfect blend of heart and humor.  The characters are ordinary people telling an extraordinary story in such a way that lines from the play have become favorite quotes in our household.\u003cbr\u003eCarol and Joe McCoy\u003cbr\u003eTim Thomas blends the gift of teaching with the artistry of a playwright. He possesses a wonderful knack for taking the stories and truths of Scripture and retelling them in a way that is accurate, touching, relevant and, at times, hilarious. Over the years, as both an audience member and a participant, I have been encouraged and blessed by his plays.  \u003cbr\u003ePastor Gary McGhee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlaying the part of the Inn Keeper's wife is a memory I will always cherish.
