Custom Writing |
There’s a great deal of creativity and ingenuity
happening in ministry today. I know because I hear from a lot of you who are
doing some pretty amazing stuff. Odds are the more original you want to be, the
harder it will be to find drama materials in a book to fit your needs. Below
are some of the more unique writing requests I have received, just to show you
how we can help you with your drama script needs.

DRAMA STUFF
Count
Yourblessings
I got an email a few years back from a very sweet lady running a children’s
puppet ministry. She had just acquired a Dracula puppet and wanted 3-4 scripts
that would use him. This is still one of the most unusual requests I’ve ever
received, and it led to a number of zany scripts… including the one linked
above.
Starch of
the Spirit
Another woman emailed me needing a script for a women’s retreat. The theme of
the retreat was “Starch”, and the women would be learning about how the “starch
of the spirit” would help them live more godly lives. Not your typical cookie
cutter Biblical illustration, so I wrote a less than typical skit to illustrate
the message.
Let’s
Talk About Sex
I’ve got a great friend on the East Coast at Bay Area Community Church who
always knows just what she wants. This script was written as an intro for a
“sex talk” at a women’s conference. She wanted an over-the-top old lady
babbling excitedly about how she couldn’t wait to hear the “sex talk” that
would help the women laugh, loosen up, and be more receptive to the message
that followed. Not for younger audiences, but the script had a special place in
this women’s event.
Friends
and Gilligan's
Island
Another friend on the West Coast asked for a group of skits to accompany a
sermon series. The theme was sitcoms, and each week, people would be treated to
a different show. Two of the resulting scripts are linked above.
While we're on the subject of old TV
shows... a guy in Alabama wanted to do a skit about the shepherd/sheep parables
featuring Alf. I have no idea how they staged this, but I'm sure it was a lot
of fun.
There's a youth camp in Minnesota that asks
me to write their theme skit every summer. The theme for 2007 is "The
Mountain." (The photo above is another theme skit I wrote for them, Doll
in the Trash.)
Dinner theater's a very popular outreach
ministry these days, and the above script was written for that very purpose.
Before you open the file, please know the characters, the plot, and all the
other core ideas came from the person who commissioned the play. It's the
second one I've written for them, and let me tell you... it's a trip.
