Book Synopsis Christmas Plays for Small Churches by : David Christine
Download or read book Christmas Plays for Small Churches written by David Christine and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-09-28 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who said small churches cannot produce quality, thought provoking Christmas programs? If you are looking for Christmas programs with a real Christian message that are designed for small stages, then this book is for you. These plays truly fit all size churches and are written in such a way as to minimize rehearsals and memorization. The book contains five plays: - "The Nativity" utilizes a liturgical format and focuses on worshiping Christ. This play works well even in churches which do not normally use formal liturgy. - "What Child is This?" is humorous yet has a strong evangelistic message. - "It's the Gift that Counts" presents an emotional presentation of the Gospel. The Christmas story is told utilizing both traditional and non-traditional Bible passages focusing on finding God's greatest gift to us. - "An Interview with Scrooge" is a hilarious play that will not only cause your audience to laugh out loud, it will challenge the audience to examine the difference between true Christianity and rote religion. - "The Christmas Surprise" is even funnier than "An Interview with Scrooge." The beauty of this play is that you cannot rehearse it. The pastor should go out of his way to advertise this play and when people ask, "who is in it and when is the rehearsal," he just replies by saying, "it's a surprise." This play seems to be random, but it has a very poignant message challenging the audience to answer God's call (be it for salvation or Christian service). In addition to the five plays, there is an interactive Church Christmas Decoration Service that can become a new Christmas tradition for those churches who do not celebrate Advent services. Also included is a chapter with helps and hints for small churches which include: - Stage Directions - Hints for Working in Small Churches - Hints for Working with Amateur Actors - Hints for Keeping the Play Moving, and - Keeping Christ in Christmas. "Remember the Reason for the Season" is not an add on cliche for these plays; Christ and the Gospel are the foundation these plays are built upon.

Book Synopsis The Acts of Baby Jesus by : Erik Santiago
Download or read book The Acts of Baby Jesus written by Erik Santiago and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-25 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great Christmas plays for church are hard to find! After years of looking and producing some pretty average stuff we took to writing our own. We're not sure if they're great, but a groundswell of churches around the world have requested them at this point, so we've tried make it easy to get these three one acts written for churches. They are short, ranging from 5-15 minutes and have cast sizes from two to eight people. No Ordinary Baby - two friends of Mary and Joseph wrestle with the news of Mary's "illegitimate" pregnancy. Jacob the cynic and Rebecca the ever-hopeful dreamer, grapple with the possibilities of God coming to earth. Audiences will think, engage, question and laugh in this sweet comedy that wrestles with questions that have lingered since the birth of Jesus. The Three Somewhat Wise Men - This comedic one act opens with a short narration, "Countless generations know the famous story of 'The Three Wise Men' - the three kings of the Orient who traveled so far to Bethlehem to meet the new-born savior Jesus Christ. But few people know that, according to the Bible, they did not reach the child until he was some two to three years old. Even lesser known is that...they had a few hiccups along the way. So, we invite you to travel with us back in time as we thoughtfully consider, well, what took them so long? Although our account is apocryphal, we think you will find it enlightening." This fun exploration of these endearing characters will inject some humor into your Christmas program. You can cast the 'seasoned saints' from among you or youth with the classic beards askew to give it a twist of your own. The Winning Nativity - slightly obsessive Amy is determined to win a nativity contest with a slightly disimpassioned cast. That may be a generous characterization and all the more problematic since Amy is determined to impress her childhood idol, the one and only Venecio Capaldi. In a variation on the classic nativity play, complete with hapless sheep and self-absorbed teen playing Mary, this little piece is meant to reinvent this tried and true staple of the Christmas program and give us some things to chew on. All of these plays can provide a great platform for a sermon or other elements of a church Christmas program. They have been used by churches from Vietnam to Sweden and Ohio to Southern California.
Book Synopsis No Stable Too Small by : Lois Anne DeLong
Download or read book No Stable Too Small written by Lois Anne DeLong and published by . This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here's a collection of humorous, down-to-earth plays that bring a fresh perspective to the Christmas story through such creative devices as imagining the thoughts and feelings of fringe characters (like an innkeeper or a servant to one of the magi) or by updating the story with contemporary settings and characters. No Stable Too Small offers a variety of practical material for any situation, ranging from shorter plays with small casts and lines that can be easily mastered by younger children to more elaborate pieces with sophisticated themes for older children and adults. And they're ideal for use with today's young people -- the dialogue reflects the way they really talk, yet never detracts from the biblical message. These flexible scenes offer a mix of speaking parts for all age groups, from preschool through adult, and are especially valuable for small congregations that lack the resources to mount large-scale productions. No sets are required, and only simple costumes and minimal props are needed. The plays can be performed by smaller churches with as few as 8-10 cast members, or parts can be easily divided to accommodate groups as large as 25-30. And with a running time of approximately 20-25 minutes each, it's easy to fit them within a Christmas Eve or Advent Sunday worship service. Some of the charming presentations include: * Love Finds a Way * It Wasn't the Hilton, You Know * Christmas Eve at Angel School * Because God Said So, That's Why * No Small Parts * "Unto Us a Child Is Born..". Next on Omar * Miracles? No Problem! ...and eight more! Lois Anne DeLong is currently a freelance writer and editor in Bay Shore, New York. She previously served 25 years in public relations, publishing, and marketing for the American Institute of Chemical Engineers. A graduate of New York University, DeLong is an active member of Brentwood Presbyterian Church in Brentwood, New York. Barbara Anne Antonucci was born and raised in Brentwood, New York, and is a lifelong member of Brentwood Presbyterian Church.
