Gelassenheit - The Life of Samuel Froehlich
Gelassenheit - The Life of Samuel Froehlich
This audio drama is based on the life of Samuel Froehlich and events in the early days of the Apostolic Christian Church. Much of this information has been taken from Froehlich’s writings and other historical documents with the goal to make the story as accurate as possible. This production was written and performed in 2012 by Bluffton home school students who spent time studying Froehlich’s experiences. Some real events coinciding with the time of Froehlich’s life have been dramatized to make the story come to life. To lighten the serious nature of the subject matter, some details about the geographical locations and fictional conversations have been added.
