Download or read book Real Puppets Real Issues written by Paul Reed and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is no secret that some people are feeling alienated from the church, for various reasons; social status, sexual orientation, or how they dress, among others. For these reasons, as well as others, some have felt compelled to leave the church. The purpose of this book is to minister to those very people; to show them that although the church is not perfect, Jesus Christ is real and alive and will never mistreat them or abuse them; that in His heart there is a place for them too. Perhaps the most important part of ministering to those feeling like there is no spiritual home for them in the church, is to demonstrate that, while the church struggles to exemplify the love of Christ, Christ Himself is still real and is still alive and loves each and every one with a deep and abiding love. It is my hope that those who either read these scripts or see them performed will come to realize that Christ is calling us all and we have only to say Yes!

Download or read book Instant Puppet Skits written by Mikal Keefer and published by Group Pub Incorporated. This book was released on 2002-12 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use 20 Stories From People Who Met Jesus to enliven favorite Bible stories and to introduce children to puppeteering! Lead kids to discover more about Jesus from the people who knew him best--those he met...like one of the shepherds, Zacchaeus, a Roman soldier, and more! You will get: 2 compact discs with audio for each script. You and your puppeteer friends don't have to worry about digging up sound effects or reading the lines as you perform. It's already done for you! Scripture reference in Table of Contents, Directions for creating a stage, Simple Bible costumes for puppets, Reproducible patterns for props, Reproducible scripts with staging instructions, And a Puppet Primer with tips for powerful and imaginative productions. The twenty scripts you'll find in Instant Puppet Skits have something in common: each features a Bible character who met Jesus and shares a personal insight. John the Baptist tells his would-be, disgusted director that he is not the star attraction, that his purpose was to prepare people to follow Jesus, and while Lazarus tries to collect a refund on his burial, he explains eternal life for those who believe. And you'll find that the scripts have other things in common too: Scripts have no more than four puppets on stage at any one time, and you can re-use the same four "actors" with different costumes to limit the costs of the puppets! Four or less puppets per script makes it easy for you to recruit enough puppeteers! Yet the audience is involved. In "Fish and Loaves", the audience acts the part of the crowd, each of them stuffed with food. After each script you'll find group discussion points in the "For Deeper Learning" section.
Download or read book Dragon Talks written by James Lepard and published by Wood Lake Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dragon Talks features an entire year’s worth of puppet scripts that work and are accessible for all ages. Through Robbie the dragon, children, youth, and adults alike are drawn into the text in a fun, open, and irreverent (in the best sense of the word) way. Robbie asks questions of the text, and points out confusing parts, in a way that “sophisticated” church people are often afraid to do. As such, the Robbie conversations are a meaningful and effective way to engage the text in an open-ended and playful way. Based on the Revised Common Lectionary, these scripts are designed for use during “children’s time” in worship and can also be used as part of a Sunday or midweek Christian education program based on the lectionary. Each script is written for two readers: “Robbie” and one other person. The book includes a CD containing the scripts and permission is granted to duplicate the scripts for use within the congregation.
