What does Lamplighter Theatre mean to you?

I’m a homeschool mother with four children and I am SO grateful for this ministry. We have all benefited from the deep, Christ centered and riveting content found in lamplighter’s books and (especially!) audio dramas! We just joined the club and we did a happy dance in our living room bc we are so excited to have access to all of the dramas, which are helping drive home our family devotions and Bible study! Thank you again, Mr. and Mrs. Hamby and team! Love in Christ, Katy 

I listen to these beautiful and thought provoking stories before I go to bed each night. They help to relax me and I always fall asleep on a good note. You are never too old for a good bedtime story and Lamplighter theater does not disappoint. They provide an award winning performance every time. What an incredible blessing. Much gratitude to all the crew for your hard work, time, effort and dedication. Your perfectly selected stories do indeed provide history, mystery and new beginnings and may I add hope. God continue to bless Lamplighter and all their staff as they journey forward providing quality entertainment that educates and deepens our faith in Christ. ~Molly B.

Listening to Lamplighter Theatre has made me see how much I need to work on my walk with God. It has made me get out of bed and pray and cry out to Him. Thank you so much for making these audio dramas! The acting is excellent and the values are priceless. It makes me wish there was a Finnian Jones living in my town. God bless you richly!

Dear Brother Hamby,

I am teacher from India. I do not have the words to describe what Lamplighter means to me. I treasure these God sent stories like a person staggering on a parched wilderness road would treasure a wineskin of precious water! I was one who only wanted happy endings in life, and now I understand that it is 'ok' if a situation does not end happily. This evening God showed me how much He loves me and that I needed to put away all of my 'emotional crutches' and cling to Him after I listened to 'A Peep Behind the Scenes'. 

My eyes are filled with tears every time I listen to a Lamplighter story.  My heart yearns for us all to learn these truths. According to statistics India has a population of over 1 billion people, out of which 65% are youth. Values and virtues have vanished into thin air.  Little children and college-going 'Christians' are committing suicide. Sir, do you see how desperately we need Lamplighter!  I request you to please, by the mercies of God, consider setting up a Lamplighter's branch in India so that people here will get to hear all of these dramas on radio, see all the dramas on screen, as well as read all your books. This is an S.O.S. to you from this pagan land. There is no time left Sir, I plead with you, please do not delay.  I feel a desperate sense of urgency because I see depravity multiplying horrendously in our lives here. Given an opportunity, I would love for me to be part of Lamplighter all my life, and give my life to its service! Thank you for your patience. In His service, Kavita M.

I just finished listening to the Boy of Mt. Rhigi’s fourth episode and am convinced that this is the most powerful episode yet! From a boy who is falsely accused and finds himself in prison to a masterpiece shipwreck that makes you feel as if you were on the ship, this drama will kept me on the edge of my seat. But that’s not what makes this so great…it is the theology and biblical world-view that is presented…it is just masterly woven throughout the fabric of this drama.

Dear Lamplighter: Recently I gave a coworker A Peep Behind the Scenes to listen to. While on break each day she started to listen and today, she came to me in tears to tell me that the Good Shepherd had found her! Thank you for giving me the tools to evangelize the lost! D.L.
