Description

This course introduces the student to the development of drama-based ministries through the use of humor to convey such materials as scripture, children's ministries, sermon notes, evangelism, missions, etc. to illustrate themes for Christian & non-Christian audiences alike. The use of comedic techniques such as: surprise, exaggeration, incongruity, repetition, misunderstanding, comedy of errors, irony, satire, and more to convey the Christian message will be explored and developed to evaluate our lives as we progress toward Christ-likeness. Particular emphasis will be placed on creation, development, and performance of applicable materials. (3 units; Spring)
