Is it possible to energize, motivate and guide young people to live a Christ-like lifestyle through drama?

 

Within the pages of Drama in the Rose Garden ($18.49, paperback, 9781545611678; $9.99, e-book, 9781545627150), readers will find easy directions for youth plays with simple staging ideal for church ministries.

 

“This book features  13 thought-provoking and relevant, faith-based one-act plays designed to entertain and empower youth--ages 4 to 18 years old--to live a Christ-like lifestyle,” Joyce Washington says. “Children gain spiritual wisdom and conflict-resolution skills while having fun. These plays give young people an opportunity to understand and demonstrate Christian solutions to societal concerns in a safe environment under adult supervision.”

 

The actors, advisors and audience will all learn valuable lessons, including understanding scriptures; identifying bullying; recognizing hidden talents; practicing memorization and public speaking; developing friendships and sharing laughter; fostering team work; and managing societal pressures and challenges.

 

“Using scriptures, the plays resolve unanswered questions children face with peers such as bullying, low self-esteem, and developing friendships,” the author states. “Readers will enjoy the ease with which sufficient messages are communicated humorously.”

 

A native of Detroit, Joyce Washington has a bachelors’ degree in American Sign Language interpreting. She has written and directed more than 65 Christian-based plays.
