Pray.com Introduces New Audio Series Featuring Gary Valenciano
“Gary is a breath of fresh air with some of the best vocals we’ve ever heard.
Pray.com has been working together with Gary for the past year, and nothing
but magic has been produced,” said Max Bard, Pray.com VP of Content. “He has a
voice that feels like he’s giving you a hug. And with the brand-new release of
Joseph, you will get to experience his range and the Bible come to life.”
Get to know Joseph
Inspired by the book of Genesis from the Bible, this audio series introduces
listeners to the flawed hero, Joseph. This beloved son of Israel is bestowed a
coat of glimmering colors, showcasing his favor over his brothers. However,
his father’s favor puffs him up with pride, which ultimately becomes his
downfall. Joseph's brothers sell him into slavery, forever changing the
trajectory of his life.
“Joseph was a hero who went through a lot, and you’ll hear all of that when
you get to listen to his story in 'Heroes of the Bible,’” Valenciano said. “I
have so enjoyed working with Pray.com on this content, as they’re not just
professionals, the PRAY team is also passionate about putting the Word of God
across in a manner that caters to everyone.
This Joseph story is written in a way that it can really be accepted and
appreciated by people today. It’s slightly reimagined, and I tried to put in
what I personally felt would have been the drama going on between Joseph, his
brothers, his father, the coat, the dreams, Pharaoh, and all the other
characters that played a role, the butler, the baker.”
Gary Valenciano’s portrayal
Valenciano is no stranger to the story of Joseph or the unbelievable events
that characterize his life. In fact, Valenciano secured a role acting as
Joseph’s father, Jacob, in the 2022 production of “Joseph the Dreamer,” taking
place at the Maybank Performing Arts Theater in the Philippines.
He previously portrayed Joseph in the 1999 run of the musical. “At the time
when I was asked to do ‘Heroes of the Bible’ content featuring Joseph—his
story and everything that he went through—I had no idea that its release would
fall right alongside the timeline of the musical,” Valenciano added.
Epilogue
As Valenciano guides listeners to discover and experience how God eventually
redeems Joseph’s unfortunate circumstances, he invites people on a journey of
excitement and entertainment. The biblical story of Joseph provides an example
of a historic hero who trusted God. This modern adaptation should be able to
offer valuable takeaways for people to do the same in their own lives today.
“Gary’s content has been so impactful for us to listen to, and we can’t wait
to share such an engaging and inspiring story with our listeners,” said Bard.
“This new version freshens up the language to meet people where they are,
while still holding true to the holy Word of God.”
