Director’s Copy

Q  
Why are they labeled “Director’s Copy”?

A  
I wanted it to be clear that copies of the scripts aren’t to be given to the actors:

• The director needs to “see” the plan and “share” with the actors the overall vision.
• The actors need to connect with the characters and “be” their own part so that individual “congregation members” will be reached.
  [If you are presenting during a worhsip service then the audience is God and the congregation is also participating in His worship by connecting with at least one character, hopefully, the main character, so that their own life may begin to change. If you are presenting during an outreach event then the audience is the audience and, we pray, lives are changed toward Kingdom entry. It is just a distinction to some, but I believe Jesus has been pointing this out to us for some time and therefore, it is crucial to our understanding as Directors/leaders.]

Consider presenting your work not at other congregations so much as out in the world. Be of Faith and present The Gospel at parks, schools, secular events... wherever the Holy Spirit leads your team... just make sure that you have warriors praying for your team members and know that God prepares the hearts to be affected/changed way ahead of time so long as you are all praying. Then, take some warriors out there with you to pray for the people as they will come looking for Our Hope. Congregations will benefit from the presentation of any of these human videos, but they were written to open the door for the lost [some of which may still be found in the congregations].
