Good Tidings Of Great Joy

CASPAR: I had a strange dream last night, and I woke convinced that we should go in a different way.

MELCHIOR: Odd that you should say that — I had a dream, too! I am convinced that Herod has no desire to worship the child — he sees him as a threat to his throne. (From “The Wise Men” drama)

Here is a collection of short Advent dramas. The series can be presented with few rehearsals and limited props and costumes. Each drama easily fits within a worship setting. For a longer service, the dramas could be combined and offered as scenes for one complete service.

This series includes:
Mary and Elizabeth — Advent 1
The villagers of Nazareth — Advent 2
Ziph the Shepherd and his Wife Jerah — Advent 3
Gabriel — Advent 4
The Innkeeper’s Wife — Christmas Eve
The Wise Men — Epiphany
