Worship Innovations:

Lent and Easter Season Resources: Volume 3

Dedicated to providing fresh ideas for busy ministers and worship planners in a variety of settings, the Worship Innovations offers practical resources that will bring the Bible to life and brighten your worship services. The easy-to-produce dramas and programs can be used in any size church, yet are flexible enough to fit almost any worship style. The user-friendly resource comes with detailed instructions, including a complete list of everything you need to prepare for.

Included are:

* The Paths to Calvary -- a series of six short dramatic monologues for the weeks leading up to Easter in which biblical characters tell of their encounters with Jesus

* Our Place at the Table -- a dramatic re-enactment of the events preceding the Last Supper, culminating in a congregational communion service

* A Passover to Remember -- a complete Maundy Thursday service with a modified Passover seder as the centerpiece

* A Growing Darkness -- a Good Friday tenebrae service featuring seven readings about the day's events, brought to life with several costumed monologues

* Seven Words to Die By -- based on Christ's seven last words, this tenebrae service finds meaningful truths in the somber events of the crucifixion through monologues, scripture readings, music, and prayers

* Surprise at Sunrise -- an Easter sunrise service depicting the resurrection discovery in four vignettes using child actors

* The Week of Weeks -- a set of interactive scripture readings for each of the Sundays between Easter and Pentecost
