....hand-selected Christian Drama Skits.

All throughout the better part of my youthful, school-aged years, I had the opportunity to be actively involved in several different Christian Drama Skit teams. While engaging in frequent practice, we also performed in various locals, sharing in our interpretation of different, current and past, Christian-themed songs.

Instead of dabbling in otherwise illegal activities, being involved in these various Christian Drama Ministry Teams gave me a much-welcomed outlet during the most difficult times in my life. While my acne was flaring-up, and peer pressure was an ever-present difficulty, I found that Christian Drama Ministry afforded me a great release, that it does for many teenagers who grow up with great struggles.

Unfortunately, I don't have any video of skits that I was actually involved with, however, this lens is meant to highlight YouTube videos of drama skits that have been performed by other groups and church drama skit ministry teams. Based on my personal experience being a member of several different Christian Drama Teams, I will also provide resources and recommendations that deal with just about every aspect of Christian Drama Team Ministry.

The context of the music, and performances (of the videos presented), will span the decades, in relationship to the same songs that I personally had experience working with. New music is always 'current' and definitely has an immediate appeal, although, past music material can certainly be engaging, as well. More current Christian music artists will be presented, along with the likes of artists like "Carman", who gained popular acclaim for his narrative-type Christian music execution. If you found this Squidoo lens through a Google search, you may want to consider watching these videos and, if you are a member of a team that is looking for ideas to perform, I definitely recommend some of the following music for potential performances.

While I realize that this topic may not be everyone's 'cup-of-tea', this art of expression has gained increasing popularity in churches, especially throughout the United States and on into Europe, and many other continents. Most who have had the opportunity to be in the audience for one of these Christian drama skits, may be able to recognize the great deal of emotion and personal expression that goes into the preparation, and execution, of all the many working elements of one of these drama skits. Oftentimes, it's difficult to leave without feeling, in many ways, 'touched': having had your heart-strings tugged on, if ever so subtly.

#1) LifeHouse - Everything 

YouTube Video

With over 10,000,000 views on YouTube, this video has been available, on various video websites, for quite some time now. Because of the incredible popularity of the band, Lifehouse, the performers' talent, and their engaging lyrics, you can see exactly why this YouTube video became as viral as it did. I dare you to watch this video without tearing up, even the slightest bit. Enjoy!

No Name Face

As Track #12 on their smash album "No Name Face", I couldn't have organized better placement for this song, on their album.

Other Lifehouse Drama Skits 

....and, the interpretation of other Groups.

Iv'e found that this particular Lifehouse song, when combined with such beautiful movements, and talented performers, is really effortless when touching viewers 'deep-down' to their emotional core. These videos convey different interpretations of the above Lifehouse drama skit. I can't say who actually performed it first, however, once the first video became viral, it stands to reason that many other groups decided to follow their lead and perform the same powerfully engaging song. I can't blame them. It's beautiful and it's not uncommon for audiences to leave with tears in their eyes. You may do the same, as well.

If you stumbled across this lens, and are considering putting together a Christian drama skit team (or want to analyze potential movements that you can integrate into your current routines), I would definitely recommend watching these videos. Video #4 actually puts an interesting, hip-hop, twist that I had never heard before, with a bit of an overlapping narration.

Making the most.... 

....of Christian Drama Ministry.

One of the main reasons why I began to write this Squidoo lens was because the sheer amount of resources that were simply unavailable people who were searching for information on Christian Drama Ministry Skits. Whether you are a member of a Christian Drama Ministry Team, the leader, or someone who did a Google search in order to find videos to watch for recreation, I am confident that, as you read further, you will enjoy this Squidoo lens, and the recommendations I make.

Drama Ministry

Amazon Price: $19.99 (as of 01/04/2010)Buy Now

Written by a veteran church ministry drama director, I can't recommend this book enough. Appropriately entitled "Drama Ministry", it was written in order to share expertise with regards to just about every facet of Drama ministry, with valuable insights that are applicable even today. I really wish I would have had this book in the early '90s, when I was a member of a Christian Drama Ministry: I would have definitely shared it with my friends, youth leader, pastor, and Drama Team Director/leader.

If you click on the book, you can read further:
"......It brims with information, ideas, training exercises, samples of scripts, troubleshooting tips, and other tools that can take your team for a quantum leap in effectiveness. The book also includes a CD-ROM that provides a video demonstration of directing techniques. And it's punctuated with personal testimonies and stories from audiences and actors that reveal the power of drama and the impact of team........"

#2) Stavesacre - Keep Waiting 

YouTube Video

The band that performed this song, Stavesacre, has been producing music since the early '90's. Rarely do bands maintain fans for that long, however, for a profound rock-fan, it was really refreshing to have a YouTube search produce results for a Christian Drama team that decided to perform a skit to one of this band's songs, Keep Waiting,

Speakeasy

Staking a claim as one of my favorite albums, of all-time (seriously...), the song 'Keep Waiting' can be found on the following album. With a simply beautiful synthesis of hard rock music meshed with occasional arrangements of tear-jerking, heart-felt, melodies, Stavesacre accomplished to make this Album a masterpiece. Year later, I still listen to this album.

#3) MercyMe - I Can Only Imagine 

YouTube Video

A Christian band named MercyMe provided the song for this particular Christian Drama Skit. Among the likes of current Christian bands, like Casting Crowns, MercyMe has emerged as one of the most popular, current artists, lately. While this skit may initially begin with a subtle awkward feel, with an otherwise non-handicap individual acting like he is crippled, as the video progresses, I personally feel like he did a great job in his performance. I have to certainly give credit whenever any one performer is able to essentially carry a performance, on their own, without having others involved. There is a great deal of confidence and skill required to pull this type of feet off, and I believe this performer accomplished that well.

#4) Carman - This Blood 

YouTube Video

Birthed in the 1980's, I can still clearly remember performing this song, and a variety of others, by a Contemporary Christian music artist named Carman. While I'm unsure about what he is doing today, I do know that many of his songs were generally famous for telling a story in a narrative-type format. While embracing some of the most graphic, yet powerful, narration, Carmen never failed at painting a detailed and vivid picture (of events like the crucifixion) that has resonated in my mind for years. You will totally understand what I mean when you watch the following video.

#6) Stephen Curtis Chapman - Speechless 

YouTube Video

Most fans of Christian music will be familiar with the work of an artist named Stephen Curtis Chapman. My earliest introduction to his music began with his smash hit among the Christian Community, "the Great Adventure", which was released in the early '90s. Over 20 years later and he is still producing great music, with powerful lyrics, that has gained a global audience of listeners.

#9) Chris Daughtry - It's Not Over 

YouTube Video

Even though he hailed from American Idol fame, this church drama ministry still managed to turn one of Chris Daughtry's hit songs (of his first album) into a visual masterpiece. While somewhat controversial in the Christian Community, sometimes non-Christian artists and musician's music are used to convey a great message and further an awesome ministry.
