Act On It! Hundreds of churches across America are now using innovative drama sketches in their services. But they have had a problem: Where could they find high-quality, tested drama scripts? Willow Creek Resources has responded to that need with the Sunday Morning Live series of drama sketches. Each sketch in the series was first presented at Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, IL, which averages an attendance of 15,000 people weekly. These sketches, specially written to reach the unchurched, raise questions. They make their audience laugh -- or cry. And they act as a 'set-up' to the message given by the pastor, opening the audience to hear God' Word on issues like stress, witnessing, and materialism. Sketches included in this book are: Security Check, Richard: 1992, Problem of Perspective, Carch-22, Plane Talk, and The Plate Spinner. There's no more powerful tool to reach the unchurched than drama. And with the Sunday Morning Live series, you have the materials to act on it -- now!
