Three Christmas Plays and One Easter Play perfect for the small to medium sized congregation. Each only requires about fifteen performers with options to plug in more. The plays incorporate humor, drama, and the Christmas programs are set to include music if desired. "Bethlehem's Inn" tells of a young inn keeper in ancient Bethlehem who is eager to make a fortune and move. His plans to expand his inn and move are rocked when he denies a room to two very special guests. "We Got Dat" is a modern story of a storekeeper who forces his employees to work on Christmas Eve. When he discovers an employee has been facing hardships at home he reconsiders the meaning of Christmas. "The Best Christmas Play Ever" focuses on a pastor trying to put on the best Christmas play his church has ever had but can't come up with any good ideas. Finally "Jerusalem News Channel" is a humorous telling of what the events around the death and resurrection of Jesus would have been like if the modern news media had been there to cover it.

The Cookie Stand takes place during the Christmas holidays. Macy is a college student who comes home during her Christmas break bringing her discouragement with her. She has seen a lot of wild, dorm life while living on campus and is dismayed by the world outside of the Christian home where she was raised. Macy lives with her Aunt Rachel following the death of her mother several years earlier. As more family members arrive, Macy's concerns are brought to light, a family anecdote is shared and encouragement is given. Macy's spirits are lifted and with new resolve, she decides to make a stand of her own. Warm characters and inspiring conversation, will keep your audience interested and entertained throughout this 15-20 minute drama. Goody Two-Shoes is a simply staged play approximately ten minutes in duration. Though only requiring two actresses and very little staging or props, this easily produced play is not to be taken lightly. The poignant conversation between the two characters may cause the audience to re-think their motives and inspiration when attempting to be of help to their neighbors.

In today's "hurry-up" world, it seems we rarely take the time to think of other people and "walk a mile in the other man's shoes." If we did, what would we see? They Worshiped Him revisits the nativity story from the perspective of the people who were actually there. In this dramatic retelling, we glimpse the innermost thoughts and feelings of some of the very common people whose lives were forever changed by a most extraordinary event. What did the shepherds feel? What did others think of them? Were they perceived as "eccentric"? And what about the wise men who followed the star? Did they have an entire entourage, or did people treat them like three dottering old men? And what about Mary and Joseph; how did this unusual pregnancy affect them? They Worshiped Him answers many of these questions while reminding us of the biblical characters' humanity. The singing of favorite seasonal carols is woven into the drama, encouraging audience participation. And it's an adaptable work that can be staged as elaborately or simply as you wish. While there are speaking parts for 12 angels, 5 animals, 6 shepherds, 3 magi, the innkeeper, Mary, Joseph, and a narrator, roles can easily be combined for use with any size congregation. Staging instructions are included. Far too many plays being marketed to churches today are not well written, place unreasonable requirements on the space and talent available in the average local church, and contain biblically inaccurate statements and characterizations. Gail Keffer's play They Worshiped Him doesn't present any of those problems. It is written in a flexible manner that makes it easy to adapt to a worship service, dinner theater, or a feature-length play for an annual Christmas production. It also does a magnificent job of presenting a biblically accurate version of the nativity story that can be heard, understood, and remembered by all of God's children.... We used this play two years ago, and people are still talking about it. One comment I heard was that the play "made Mary seem like a real person and not a stained-glass Madonna who's out of touch with the realities people like us face." Kari Turner McClellan Senior Pastor, First Presbyterian Church Levittown, Pennsylvania Gail K. Keffer is a graduate of Slippery Rock University (B.S. and M.Ed.). An active member of Clen-Moore Presbyterian Church in New Castle, Pennsylvania, Keffer is a former schoolteacher who has run a needlework design business and is currently the proprietor of The Amish Peddler, a business specializing in the sale of fine Amish-made furniture.

Who said small churches cannot produce quality, thought provoking Christmas programs? If you are looking for Christmas programs with a real Christian message that is designed for all stages, then this book is for you.

(6 actors) Poor Nick feels slighted because he was born on Christmas Day. It's his birthday, but everyone else gets presents. His attitude changes when he learns the reason we celebrate Christmas. - "It's the Thought that Counts, Isn't It?" (4-5 actors) - Set as a radio drama, so there is no memorization of lines, this play centers on a mother who is upset because she did not get what she wanted for Christmas. She learns that often, God also does not get what He wants either. - "Christmas Eve Blackout" (4 actors) - This play centers around a typical family who discovers a different aspect of the Christmas story. -"The Great Late Morning Show" (3 actors) - This is a funny play that pulls audience members into the action. Through this play, the audience learns that real meaning of Christmas is personal and meant for anyone. -Bonus Play: "A Christmas Eve Candlelight Service" (2 actors) - This is a contemporary musical which draws the audience to Christ as the light of the world.

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.
