Easter Encounters
For Primary and Secondary SchoolsLet's go back nearly two thousand years, to a big city in the backwater province of Palestine. Many people in the city of Jerusalem were about to have an encounter with a man they would never, ever forget. Even though Pilate washed his hands of an innocent man, how could he ever forget his conversation about truth with the 'King of the Jews'? A soldier would always remember the words of the man on the cross.But, that's not all. This man died and was buried. Three days later people encountered the same man – alive. Surely, that was an encounter that they would never forget. And this man's name was Jesus. This book is a collection of scripts, poems, prayers and dramatic readings all about these groundbreaking encounters. They can be used in schools and churches, for lessons, assemblies, and services to impact and inspire.Tony Bower is the head of YoYo (York Schools and Youth Trust), which is a Christian charity that brings the Christian faith alive.The drama work that Tony has done for our school for special services has been inspirational. Both children and parents have been moved by the content, and the dramas have ignited these events into very special spiritual moments. Jonathan Green - Headteacher, Archbishop of York's CE Junior SchoolThe drama was moving and powerful; I could not commend the results highly enough. This is the perfect starting point when developing such enriching experiences with children.Beverley Pawson - Headteacher, Sand Hutton, and Warthill Federation.

From Chatting To Really Talking
It is essential for young people's emotional, social and spiritual development to talk about themselves, and yet they are receiving ever fewer opportunities to really talk. Family life is often too busy, schools at times can be very focused on the next round of exams, social gatherings are full of noise and activity, and even church can seem like a place where people ask how you are but don't really want an answer.Using images, statistics, questions and ideas, Philip Eley draws on over twenty years' experience in youth work to present this useful resource for youth workers who want to help young people to really talk.

Performing With Puppets
Puppets are becoming an ever more popular medium for education and entertainment in schools, churches and theatres.Their larger-than-life characters and visual appeal fascinate audiences, young and old alike.This DVD and informative handbook take you through the art of bringing puppets alive. With clear instructions, step-by-step guides to rehearsal and sketches to put each step into practice, this manual is ideal whether you are working alone or setting up a team of puppeteers.From the smallest glove puppet to all kinds of large stage puppets, and from simple storytelling to team puppetry behind a screen, our essential how-to guide will help you to unlock the potential of this versatile art form.Puppets have some unique abilities and purposes that stem from the fact that they are able to act like people without actually being people. In education, this is important because the puppet can carry a burden which a person is unable or unwilling to carry.When a puppet is wrong, it is funny, but not embarrassing. When a puppet is sad, it invites empathy, but not sorrow.When a puppet asks a silly question, children feel good because they know the answer. The puppet doesn't feel stupid. It is surely this thick-skinned quality which makes a puppet such a useful tool in ministry. Featuring a range of useful sections, including using your puppet, starting to talk and behind the screens,this great new resource takes you through the "dos and don'ts" of puppetry to insure you are using this popular method to its greatest potential. Complete with an accompanying DVD of instructions and suggestions,this guide is a must-have for anyone involved in children's ministry.

The King is coming, and he is going to reward all those who are rich in the land,' declared the King's messenger one winter's day. Greedy Squirrel was determined to get the reward and started stashing nuts and acorns all over the wood.

Finally spring arrived and the King commanded all his subjects to appear before him to get their reward...The story is based on Matthew 25:40 'I tell you the truth. Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me. About John Stewart These beautifully crafted illustrations and carefully constructed stories charm and inspire on many levels. John Stewart delivers a powerful gospel message with a delicate touch.

Swifty One Leg
Swifty's father tells him the legend of the first golden eagle. 'He flew so high he touched God's throne,' says his father. Swifty believes it to be his destiny to do the same. However, Swifty is not like other eagles - he has only one leg. To make matters worse the carrion crow tells him that because of his disability he will never fly or hunt. Swifty longs to believe his father's encouraging words but the crow's lies are so plausible. This story has many parallels with the Christian's walk with God. It is not just about faith triumphing over infirmity. It is also about our final victory over death About John Stewart These beautifully crafted illustrations and carefully constructed stories charm and inspire on many levels. John Stewart delivers a powerful gospel message with a delicate touch. Living in Wimborne, Dorset, John has been writing stories since he gave his life to the Lord in 1975.
