Psalm 23 for the Unreached
Helping a New Generation Enter a New Land
Psalm 23 for the Unreached
Purpose:
To vividly demonstrate the hopelessness of unreached people groups.
Instructions:
Two people stand facing the audience. The Christian (A) reads Psalm 23 from his/her Bible.
Someone from and unreached people group (B) says his/her lines from memory. For more visual
impact, person B can dress in clothing of another nationality.
A: The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.
B: I have no shepherd. I want and am in need.
A: He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside quiet waters. He
restores my soul.
B: I have no one to feed me in green pastures. I find no rest. I have no one to lead me
to quiet waters. I have no one to restore my anxious and despairing soul.
A: He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
B: I find no one to guide me in right ways. I don't know where to turn.
A: Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for
you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
B: As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, evil surrounds me. I am terribly
afraid, for no one is with me to comfort me.
A: You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head
with oil. My cup overflows.
B: I have no feast prepared for me; I am overwhelmed by my enemies. No one anoints
my wounds to heal them. My cup is empty.
A: Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life...
B: All the days of my life are filled with uncertainty and disappointments...
A: And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
B: And I have no home for eternity. Will I dwell in the house of evil forever?
