Ayers\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery year, Christmas comes. And every year, in tiny congregations spread throughout the world, a director is stressing over the difficult task of producing a successful children's play. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRealizing that church plays are often hard to produce because so few are written to meet children's needs and interests, Timothy Ayers decided to change that. Writing his own plays for the children within his church, Ayers collected his dramas into \u003ci\u003eFive Little Christmas Dramas for Today's Kids\u003c\/i\u003e, hoping to help small churches creatively and freely encourage children to spread the message of Christmas. With titles ranging from \u003ci\u003eA Dress Rehearsal for Christmas\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eThe \"I Hate Christmas\" Club\u003c\/i\u003e, each drama presents a worthy reminder: The true meaning of Christmas is always found in Christ. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThese fun and simple dramas let small churches celebrate Christmas without mayhem and stress, and they empower children to play a pivotal role in highlighting the divine purpose of the Christmas holiday. With minimal set design and diverse roles for children of all ages, this collection of Christmas dramas will bless directors and congregations alike. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEach drama has listed the approximate length of time the play will take, how many cast members are needed, props, and the stage set-up. This book also has the \u003cb\u003ecopy privileges included\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eTimothy W. Ayers\u003c\/b\u003e recently pastored a small church in western New York. It was his first time working with a smaller body of Christians. After planting churches and working with several larger congregations, he felt the call to minister in a completely different setting. He learned a lot about the limitations of a small congregation. Tim merged two of his past literary mediums of short plays for contemporary churches and children's literature. His short plays, \u003ci\u003eLiving Parables\u003c\/i\u003e, written to illustrate the Sunday service messages were published by CSS Publishing, and his middle reader series, \u003ci\u003e Spinechillers Mysteries\u003c\/i\u003e. From these two loves came \u003ci\u003eFive Little Christmas Dramas for Today's Kids\u003c\/i\u003e. It is Ayers' desire that churches around the world can tell this marvelous story of the birth of our Savior through relevant, fun, and easy-to-produce holiday plays.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 66\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.14 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 28, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52503972086067,"sku":"9780788027956","price":25.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/YMwgHYXztQ9780788027956.webp?v=1760187201","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/five-little-christmas-dramas-for-todays-kids-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
