Why Church Drama?
- It’s BIBLICAL: The bible is not an encyclopedia of information about God; rather it’s the dramatic narrative of God’s relationship with real people told over the centuries. Using drama to tell a dramatic story only makes sense.
- It’s INCARNATIONAL: When we act out scriptural stories and principles, we’re giving them flesh and blood—making them real to those who are performing as well as to those who are watching.
- It’s GOSPEL: Jesus constantly employed dramatic and comedic stories to convey what the Kingdom of Heaven is like. So can we.
- It’s HISTORICAL: Down through the centuries, the Church has used “Passion Plays” and other theatrical devices to inspire congregants and evangelize the world.
- It’s CREATIVE: Our Heavenly Father is pleased when our worship reflects his divine, creative image. Drama can be a fresh, innovative expression of his nature in us.
- It’s ENGAGING: Theater can allow more members of your congregation to be involved in public and platform ministry.
- It’s UNEXPECTED: A properly placed dramatic vignette, sermon illustration or comedic interlude can keep your congregation surprised and attuned to your message.
- It’s EMOTIONAL: Drama can evoke laughter and tears and is often a more direct route to the heart than going through the brain.
- It’s COMMUNAL: Theatrical productions not only involve personal senses but also the dynamic of experiencing and reacting as a community.
- It’s IMPACTFUL: No matter your audience’s age, a dramatic performance can be more transformative and memorable than simply conveying information.
Yes, our company has a vested interest in more churches using drama, but it’s not just a financial one. You see, we’ve stayed in this business for more than 20 years because we love how these resources honor God and inspire people.
