Drama Ministry
Throughout the bible from Genesis to Revelation, there is a never ending string of dramatic tales. It contains a huge variety of stories with passion, adventure, heroism, joyous celebration, as well as tremendous battles lost and won. Who can forget stories such as Adam and Eve, Noah and the Ark, Moses and the Egyptian Pharaoh, Samson and Delilah, David and Goliath? Even Jesus used parables to teach principles for righteous living by illustrating His point in stories. As often as he s poke he was always trying to push His purpose home by being relative to the listeners. Recounting bible stories alone has been the subject for countless theatrical dramas, movies, cartoons, books and art.
In Matt. 13.3 (“Then he began to tell them many things in parables. He said, “Listen! A sower went out to sow.”) In Matt. 13:10 (“That’s why I speak to them in parables, because they look but don’t see, and they listen but don’t hear or understand.).
Stephen L Harris has, on the other hand, surmised that Jesus used parables because they provoked thought and coaxed the listeners into participating more actively as they considered the parables' ambiguous content. (wikipedia.org)
Our Mission: To glorify God by effectively improving understanding of the word of God and His principles to all who see and hear through the use of Drama and the Fine Arts. "Creative Dramatics" is structured, goal-oriented playing. Through Creative Dramatics (CD) we help the kids explore their imaginations, learn how tocommunicate ideas, and learn how to feel comfortable with themselves and their role in society. The emphasis is on creation--not performance. Through CD, we try to keep them in touch with their imagination (or help the older ones remember how to use it again).
Vision: to see the HCKB Fine Arts and Drama in particular fully functioning for all age groups to be involved combining Drama, Dance and Music.
Join us as we interpret sermons several times a year into meaningful dramatic illustrations. Consider the ways that you can use your God given talents to enhance the worship experience.
