Spontaneous Melodramas

24 Impromptu Skits That Bring Bible Stories to Life

By: Doug Fields,Laurie Polich,Duffy Robbins

You know them as hilarious, boisterous skits that get kids involved, whether they're hamming up front, or in the audience cheering for the good guys, hissing the bad guys, and getting nearly as animated as the onstage actors. Better yet, these no-rehearsal skits are comic takes on 24 classic Bible stories, from Babel to Zacchaeus. Use these skits to take your students into or out of your Bible lesson -- for the humor never buries the central message of the Bible passage. Inside you'll find 12 Old Testament and 12 New Testament stories -- like these: - The First Tongue Twister (the Tower of Babel) - Josephine's Dream (Joseph and his brothers) - The Young and the Hairless (Samson and Delilah) - Dave, the Wave, and the Giant Kahuna (David and Goliath) - Dances with Lions (Daniel) - World Serious: The Empire Strikes Out (the temptation of Jesus) - Good Sam, the Levis, and Judas Priest (parable of the Good Samaritan) - Showdown at Tombstone (Jesus and the demon-possessed man) Unchurched teenagers who can't tell Samson from Solomon, or long-time youth group kids -- everyone will love not merely hearing or reading Bible stories, but doing them. Welcome to more than a year's worth of slapstick, pratfalls, and melodrama. These Bible-story skits are anything but solemn, but they'll make Bible stories memorable for your students.

Face of the Earth

By: Doug & Linda Raber

Smallpox was wiped off the face of the Earth more than 30 years ago, but an outbreak on the Navajo reservation in New Mexico has claimed one life, and the disease is spreading. The conclusion that the outbreak is the result of a terrorist attack is official U.S. policy, but the facts don't add up to terrorism. Tipped off by a former classmate teaching in Farmington, Sarah Lockford, a Washington Post reporter, teams up with Jake Overman, a medical researcher from the Centers for Disease Control, to investigate the outbreak. As the National Security Council debates, the White House readies plans for a retaliatory attack against Iran. A cabinet member with a grudge deploys Army personnel to New Mexico to make sure no one stands in the way of a military response. The Navajo community is secretly shut off from the rest of the world. Roads are guarded, and all incoming and outgoing communications are blocked. The only leak was the phone call to Sarah, and Sarah can't be found. She evades surveillance and travels through the wilderness to the outbreak site, where she and Jake discover its surprising origin. Forced into a cross-country game of cat and mouse, they race to get their scientific evidence to the President in time. If they fail, the U.S. may launch a nuclear attack. FACE OF THE EARTH is fiction, but all of the scientific and U.S. policy information in the novel has been scrupulously fact-checked. The story is frightening because everything in it could happen.

The Approaching Tide

By: Doug Thompson

After serving a prison sentence for bigamy and cashiered from the army, Will Crosby quits England for life as a sergeant in the Queensland constabulary, hoping to regain lost self-esteem and the forgiveness of his wronged ‘wife’, Alice. A typhus epidemic on board ship puts his plans in jeopardy as the vessel and its occupants must spend an indefinite time at the ill-prepared quarantine station on Stradbroke Island. The new, unpredictable relationships Will establishes, especially with Thomas, a lapsed Irish Catholic priest, and Billy, a newly orphaned six-year old, together with his experiences and responsibilities on Stradbroke, project his life in hitherto unimagined directions. The total absence of any Authority on the island forces Will (the future policeman) and Thomas (the ex-priest) into trying to maintain civilised order in desperate circumstances. However, they encounter much hostility, for almost all the emigrants are fleeing authoritarian harshness in England and Ireland, for one reason or another. Crime and violence are rife, and, despite their own anti-authoritarian sympathies, the two friends have no option but to apply whatever justice they can to protect the community. Will’s view of the world is eventually radically changed through his encounter with Tompani, an Aborigine elder, and his people.

Bridge Between Worlds

Extraordinary Experiences That Changed Lives

By: Dan Millman,Doug Childers

A decade before Dan Millman wrote his spiritual classic Way of the Peaceful Warrior, a motorcycle crash ended his Olympic dreams. Some years later, two thugs, one armed with a metal pipe, closed in to attack a young writer named Doug Childers. These two young men had no notion that they would one day meet, become friends, and draw upon their experiences to create a collection of inspiring stories about people whose lives were changed by extraordinary events. Each story in this newly revised volume (formerly titled Divine Interventions) describes a unique journey across a metaphorical bridge to a higher reality. These stirring accounts of the lives of ordinary people as well as iconic figures, past and present, will awaken in readers a renewed faith in the mysterious possibilities hidden in daily life.

In Harm's Way

The Sinking of the USS Indianapolis and the Extraordinary Story of Its Survivors

By: Doug Stanton

A harrowing, adrenaline-charged account of America's worst naval disaster -- and of the heroism of the men who, against all odds, survived. On July 30, 1945, the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed in the South Pacific by a Japanese submarine. An estimated 300 men were killed upon impact; close to 900 sailors were cast into the Pacific Ocean, where they remained undetected by the navy for nearly four days and nights. Battered by a savage sea, they struggled to stay alive, fighting off sharks, hypothermia, and dementia. By the time rescue arrived, all but 317 men had died. The captain's subsequent court-martial left many questions unanswered: How did the navy fail to realize the Indianapolis was missing? Why was the cruiser traveling unescorted in enemy waters? And perhaps most amazing of all, how did these 317 men manage to survive? Interweaving the stories of three survivors -- the captain, the ship's doctor, and a young marine -- journalist Doug Stanton has brought this astonishing human drama to life in a narrative that is at once immediate and timeless. The definitive account of a little-known chapter in World War II history, In Harm's Way is destined to become a classic tale of war, survival, and extraordinary courage.

The Raising of a President

The Mothers and Fathers of Our Nation's Leaders

The Raising of a President

The Mothers and Fathers of Our Nation's Leaders

By: Doug Wead

God bless my mother, all I am or ever hope to be I owe to her." -- Abraham Lincoln What are the family circumstances that have created our presidents? How did their upbring-ing shape their future and ours? New York Times bestselling author Doug Wead answers these questions in one of the most comprehensive studies of presidential families to date. When one thinks about the leadership qualities of George Washington and Theodore Roosevelt or the intellectual prowess of John Adams and Abraham Lincoln, it is hard to imagine them as children. It is even more difficult to envision the parents of our leaders, especially the larger-than-life idols of our political past. Our greatest presidents have entered the Oval Office armed with overwhelming ambition, intellect, and political savvy. But were these characteristics evident in childhood? The Raising of a President is a groundbreaking look at the parents of the American presidents, full of never-before-seen facts and anecdotes, as well as psychological profiles based on Wead's findings. He analyzes the types of families into which our presidents were born, and sheds a fascinating light on how their destinies were shaped during childhood. Using countless presidential correspondences and letters, as well as notes from hours of his own private conversations and interviews with six presidents and first ladies, Wead focuses specifically on the early life of our first president, George Washington; John Adams, John Quincy Adams, and the making of our nation's first political empire; the humble beginnings of our greatest president, Abraham Lincoln; the privileged upbringing of Franklin Delano Roosevelt; the ambitious rise of John Fitzgerald Kennedy; and the "quiet dynasty" led by George H. W. Bush and his son, George W. Bush. Throughout The Raising of a President, readers will find that the circumstances and events that would destroy most children were often the very things that sparked greatness in our nation's future leaders. These are the stories of the presidents' parents, but in a truer sense, they are the stories of the presidents themselves, from a perspective that is long overdue.

Supremely Good

And Other Foundational Texts of the Bible

By: Doug Hallman

When asked what they know about the Bible, most people will tell you that David killed Goliath, Sampson got a haircut, Adam and Eve eat the apple, and Jesus was born in Bethlehem on Christmas morning. The Bible is filled with interesting, fascinating and inspiring stories, but there is a theme running through the pages of the Bible that most people miss. There are foundational ideas that describe God’s relationship with humanity. What is God prepared to do for us? What does God want from us? These foundational texts are found throughout both the Old and New Testaments and paint a wonderful, hopeful picture of how God intends our life to be.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Hollywood Riots

Violent Crowds and Progressive Politics in American Film

By: Doug Dibbern

The large literature about the politics of Hollywood in the period of McCarthy and the blacklist has largely overlooked political filmmaking during those agitated years. "Hollywood Riots" examines the most vibrant cycle of independently produced political films made while House Committee on Un-American Activities was investigating communists in the film industry. In doing so, it shifts the focus from the politics of Washington to the politics of Los Angeles and from the films of the Hollywood Ten to the more politically complex films of the progressive community at large. Dibbern shows how the movies produced by progressives at the end of the 1950s, including "The Lawless", "The Sound of Fury", "The Underworld", were the logical cinematic parallel to their political and journalistic advocacy fighting the conservative newspapers. In these films they were recasting political events from California's recent past as politically-engaged narratives that were inflected with their own fears of persecution." Hollywood Riots" re-views the work of notable directors like Joseph Losey and Cy Endfield, as well as introducing unheralded political screenwriters and directors such as Daniel Mainwaring, Jo Pagano, and Leo C. Popkin.

Jesus of Nazareth, Who was Crucified

A novel

By: Doug Bragg

Based on the Gospel accounts of the life of Jesus, Jesus of Nazareth, Who Was Crucified takes readers “behind the scenes” and provides a unique perspective on the childhood, ministry, and death and resurrection of Christ. While incorporating details from the biblical stories, the novel explores what might have happened in a fictitious yet realistic manner. Doug Bragg wrote the novel, which was found by his wife after his death. Doug lived his spiritual beliefs every day, and he believed that Jesus did as well. He held that Jesus was blood and bone, just like the rest of us. This story is about the man Jesus was—the joys, struggles, and relationships he experienced as a man walking through his life as a human being as well as the Son of God. Insight into the possible thoughts, intentions, and even insecurities of Jesus and other “players” in the tale infuse the story of the Messiah with a humanity often forgotten by those who focus primarily on his divinity. A refreshing look at the heart and message of Jesus!

Return to Joy: The Bible's Fast Track Back to God

By: Doug Martin

The premise of this book is that God has designed a roadmap for Christians who have lost their way, so that they can return to Him and to a life of clean joy without regret, in the context of grace. Using many different scriptures and principles the author has spelled out the plan for return, which he says will work for any backslidden Christian who faithfully follow it. But the way back is not easy, which is why "Return To Joy" is written in a simple step-by-step style, to allow seekers to find their way back to God at their own pace. This is a self-help manual, not a great theological treatise. Anyone who can read and understand simple English should be able to use this book to help them get back to God and return to His joy.

At Jesus' Feet

The Gospel According to Mary Magdalene

By: Doug Batchelor

Someone to love me." That's all she wanted--all anyone really wants. We are all addicts, "sinaholics," says the author, trying to fill with various addictions a gaping void in our hearts designed for God. Take Mary Magdalene. She was a prosperous prostitute, but her life was one sad, sordid story--until she met Someone who loved her with a pure, unconditional love. Ever afterward the shame of her past was eclipsed by her absolute devotion to the One who set her free.

Christian Growth from A to Z

A Practical Discipleship Manual For Both New & Growing Christians

By: Doug Lowery

This thorough and biblical discipleship manual will prove to be practical and edifying to those who are new believers and will challenge those who have known Christ longer to go forward to greater Christ-likeness and spiritual maturity. These four biblical alphabets can be used in many settings: personal study, one-on-one discipleship, small groups, Sunday school class curriculum and Christian school and home school Bible study material. “Christian Growth from A to Z is a wonderful help to lead a Christian from salvation to maturity in Christ. This is an excellent help for those mentoring new converts or students in Sunday school and other class settings. I especially appreciate the focus on knowing God and His attributes. It is evident that this work comes out of the many needs that Brother Lowery has seen after many years of ministry.” -Dr. Les Ollila, Chancellor, Northland Baptist Bible College

Tales from the Boilermaker Country

By: Doug Griffiths,Alan Karpick,Tom Schott

Sometimes funny, sometimes poignant and triumphant, often amazing, but always uniquely human. Thus describes the stories emanating from the proud athletic tradition of Purdue University -- nearly 200 stories, as a matter of fact. Tales from Boilermaker Country includes stories about some of the most colorful characters in the school's past, such as Mike Alstott, Lin Dunn, Gene Keady, George King, Ward "Piggy" Lambert, Jack Mollenkopf, Michael "Scooby" Scearce, and Moose Skowron, to name a few. Tales from Boilermaker Country takes you back to the early days and the origins of Boilermaker sports, when the team traveled by train, and continues through the digital age, when Heisman Trophy hopeful Drew Brees was promoted for the award in cyberspace. The stories in this help to explain why fans of this Big Ten school are as loyal as they come -- and why the history of Boilermaker sports makes it one of the most interesting stories in all of major collegiate athletics.

Interviews from the Bible

The Stories of Jesus Told by Those Who Knew Him First

By: Doug Hallman

We know the names of some of them. We know a little about all of them. But wouldn’t it be great if we could listen to some of the people who actually knew Jesus as he walked the dusty paths of 1st Century Galilee? What could they tell us about their encounters with the Savior? What were their impressions, how did knowing Jesus change their lives? These interviews are fictitious but they are drawn from the bits and pieces of information provided by the gospel writers. I have added no facts but I have made some suppositions from the available material to fill in the background, so-to-speak, and bring to life each of these “who knew Jesus first.”

Much More and Better

Much More and Better

By: Doug Schauer

Much More and Better is a book based on the finished work of Christ as described in the book of Hebrews. Hebrews gives us one of the best descriptions of the much more and better that we have through the new covenant ratified in the blood of Jesus Christ. This book will exalt Christ with the preeminence that he is more than worthy of, for everything lost in the fall through Adam has been restored through the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ. My prayer for you as you read this book is that you will get a magnified picture of Jesus Christ and the awesome glorious new covenant that He paid for with His own blood. As you read, it will be obvious to you that the book of Hebrews is definitely a Holy Spirit-inspired book. Read and enjoy!

Israel Rising

Israel Rising

By: Doug Hershey

Documented Proof of the Prophetic Promises of God Revealed Thousands of years ago, the prophet Ezekiel foretold a future time in which the arid land of Israel would come alive for its people. Now this breathtaking book documents the fulfillment of that vision--from the hills of Shiloh where shepherds once roamed, to the booming city of Tel Aviv, founded on sand dunes, to the stellar beaches of Caesarea, transformed from a small village into one of Israel's most stunning coastal cities and finally to Jerusalem, the Eternal City of Peace, where in ancient times the power of worship resounded from the Temple. Here, rarely seen photographs taken between the 1880s and the 1940s juxtaposed with contemporary images of the same locations illustrate the region's biblical history as a place of monumental battle, celebration, worship, and awesome resilience. Whether by helicopter or on foot, on their own or with the aid of locals, author Doug Hershey and photographer Elise Monique Theriault negotiate the terrain to access the vantage points required to match the original photos--from the rooftop of Israel's National Museum of Science, Technology and Space in Haifa, to Jaffa Port's breakwater, and much more. Their quest creates a collection that will inspire and captivate as it illuminates Israel's foretold awakening in a new and unforgettable way.

Workshop of the Holy Spirit

An Invitation to Theological Education

By: Doug Strong,Jess Bielman

Workshop of the Holy Spirit invites students into the exciting adventure of theological education. Many aspects of modern theological education have their historic roots in the ideas of the Enlightenment. This foundation creates compartmentalized structures and frameworks that may not lead to the thriving of theological students. In contrast, Pietist leader P. J. Spener asserted in 1675 that theological schools should be "nurseries of the church" and "workshops of the Holy Spirit"--a formative environment that enhances intellectual, spiritual, and missional growth. Using the medieval workshop as a helpful metaphor for us today, and writing at the intersection of the student-faculty relationship, Strong and Bielman describe the components both in and out of the classroom that enhance fruitful ministry preparation. This book engages theological education in our changing religious context. It offers fresh questions for students, highlighting emerging, innovative, and alternative models of training for life in the Spirit. Each chapter contains relevant stories from theological education students, while including descriptions of the history of theological education.

Calling and Clarity

Discovering What God Wants for Your Life

By: Doug Koskela

Young adults often encounter mixed messages about vocation from their families, friends, and churches. On the one hand, they are encouraged to look at their gifts and passions to discern their particular calling; on the other hand, they are told that God may ask something of them that they don t want to do or aren t prepared for. The discontinuity between these messages has led to frustration for many. Seeking to ease that frustration with this book, Doug Koskela carefully distinguishes between missional calling, direct calling, and general calling. Koskela clarifies the relationship between gifts, passions, and vocation even as he offers practical guidance for the process of vocational discernment. This is a book for those who want to use their time, energy, and abilities faithfully as they move with purpose toward the future. Watch a 2015 interview here:
