But we reinvent ourselves, don’t we? We keep trying because transformation is survival, like Jesus proved, like Moose taught me. My brother knew better than anyone the cost of living your truth. I wish I had listened to him earlier.

As a medium for spreading the word of God among the ordinary people of Christendom, mystery plays could be very effective. Actors took on the roles of characters from Bible stories and re-created the miraculous events of divine history, accompanied by commentary or song. Mystery plays were a colorful, dramatic way for the illiterate masses to absorb the events and messages of the Bible and they were popular all over Europe. But Bishop Albert—an ambitious but incorrigibly greedy prelate with a stronger instinct for diplomacy and statecraft than the care of souls—saw a particular use for them in his newly established bishopric of Riga, an ancient trading port in Baltic frontier country: not only to entertain and educate the faithful, but to engage those who had never heard, or cared about, the word of Christ in the first place.
