Day Of Redemption
$9.93

This service and drama provide a complete worship resource for Good Friday. The tenebrae service Seven Words To Us makes use of the traditional “Seven Last Words” (or sentences) of Jesus from the cross. Each section includes a brief reading, a litany, and a reading or dialogue. The service concludes with a litany of commitment.

The worship drama, The Escape, may either be included as part of the service or could be used at another service — or even another time during Lent. The action focuses on two “death row prisoners” who struggle with their fate on that first Good Friday. The conclusion will catch the worshiper by surprise.

Darkest Day
$9.93

The centerpiece of this Good Friday worship service is the monologue, The Ghost of Judas. Designed to be presented by the pastor or any lay-person who can speak with a sense of drama, the monologue places Judas Iscariot at center stage on the day Christ died. His reflections on his own behavior, his remorse, and his deep sense of regret and self-examination lead the worshiping congregation to search their own souls, an appropriate activity on this most profound of all Christian days.

The monologue is sermon length. If not available in local hymnals, suggested hymns may be replaced by others more appropriate.

Hear The Good News
$9.93

Hear the Good News is a fine volume of worship services for this important week within the church year. The services are particularly significant because they are based on the premise that God’s word, scripture, is dynamic and lively. Therefore, the author has provided dramatic readings of the narratives as found in the synoptic gospels. In addition, other portions of scripture are used as antiphonal hymns and liturgies. Brief introductions to the scripture passages are presented, either for oral sharing or for use in the bulletin; the congregation is also given opportunity to participate in the proclamation of the scripture texts. This is a creative and prayerful worship series for Holy Week.
