I had a comment on my last post about "bad drama" and our quest for excellence that I want to address. The person (Dan) mentioned that sometimes drama or skits are great for making a point or illustrating something more clearly during a teaching session or sermon. He mentioned that we can't always make these things a "production" or get them perfect in every way. We can't always get professionals to do them. This is very true and I respect any effort to help communicate better or make a teaching more effective. I would put this in a category of it's own. I would never want to discourage this in the teaching or preaching world. "Go for it." Throw out a good illustration as long as it does not take away from the lesson. Get the people together, do your best and have fun. Always strive to be a better communicator or teacher. Always strive to do a better job at touching and changing lives. In the meantime, let's keep working on the Theater Arts aspect of the Christian Church and aim to master the craft.
If you are looking for a Christmas Production for this coming season, consider The Richest Man in the Valley. This Christmas Musical will be fun and very effective in communicating the Christmas message. Go now to our website at www.lightsup.org.
