Esther Danielson is gifted with a dynamic creativity, which is expressed through refreshing dramatic material. She writes interesting, appealing scripts which hold the audience.

In a time when our culture is becoming dominated by visual modes of communication such as television, movies, videos, and computer games, church people are recognizing the need to keep up with the trends. Drama is a useful tool in the work of the church: it adds interest and variety; it can reveal new insights on spiritual truths; and it appeals to all ages while being non-threatening for those unused to regular church services.
This collection of easy-to-perform sketches includes both seasonal drama and pieces for any time of the year. They're suitable for worship services, social programs, or other occasions, as well as just-for-fun reading. Most have a performance time of less than five minutes, and few props are required.
Anyone who has been engaged in the neverending search for quality dramatic material will be delighted to discover this collection of witty, well-written, biblically-based scripts that are easy to stage and require minimal props and scenery. The variety of styles -- choral readings, sketches, and even a radio play -- coupled with the diversity of subject matter -- gossip, evangelism, and vivid pictures of Bible characters -- make these scripts usable throughout the church year as service starters, worship enhancers, and dramatic sermons. Brian Maxwell Drama Director, Bible Baptist College Worship Director, Heritage Baptist Church Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania
