Book Description
Great Christmas plays for church are hard to find! After years of looking and producing some pretty average stuff we took to writing our own. We're not sure if they're great, but a groundswell of churches around the world have requested them at this point, so we've tried make it easy to get these three one acts written for churches. They are short, ranging from 5-15 minutes and have cast sizes from two to eight people. No Ordinary Baby - two friends of Mary and Joseph wrestle with the news of Mary's "illegitimate" pregnancy. Jacob the cynic and Rebecca the ever-hopeful dreamer, grapple with the possibilities of God coming to earth. Audiences will think, engage, question and laugh in this sweet comedy that wrestles with questions that have lingered since the birth of Jesus. The Three Somewhat Wise Men - This comedic one act opens with a short narration, "Countless generations know the famous story of 'The Three Wise Men' - the three kings of the Orient who traveled so far to Bethlehem to meet the new-born savior Jesus Christ. But few people know that, according to the Bible, they did not reach the child until he was some two to three years old. Even lesser known is that...they had a few hiccups along the way. So, we invite you to travel with us back in time as we thoughtfully consider, well, what took them so long? Although our account is apocryphal, we think you will find it enlightening." This fun exploration of these endearing characters will inject some humor into your Christmas program. You can cast the 'seasoned saints' from among you or youth with the classic beards askew to give it a twist of your own. The Winning Nativity - slightly obsessive Amy is determined to win a nativity contest with a slightly disimpassioned cast. That may be a generous characterization and all the more problematic since Amy is determined to impress her childhood idol, the one and only Venecio Capaldi. In a variation on the classic nativity play, complete with hapless sheep and self-absorbed teen playing Mary, this little piece is meant to reinvent this tried and true staple of the Christmas program and give us some things to chew on. All of these plays can provide a great platform for a sermon or other elements of a church Christmas program. They have been used by churches from Vietnam to Sweden and Ohio to Southern California.

Book Description
For Jesus and his contemporaries, what we now know as the Old Testament was simply the Scriptures--and it was the fundamental basis of how people understood their relationship with God. In this book John Goldingay uncovers five major ways in which the New Testament uses the Old Testament. His discussion paves the way for contemporary readers to understand and appreciate the Old Testament more fully. Along with an overview of how Jesus and the first Christian writers read the Old Testament, illustrated with passages from Matthew, Romans, 1 Corinthians, and Hebrews, Goldingay offers a straightforward introduction to the Old Testament in its own right. Reading Jesus's Bible will shed fresh Old Testament light on Jesus, God, and the church for readers today.

Bart Ehrman--the New York Times bestselling author of Misquoting Jesus and a recognized authority on the early Christian Church--and Zlatko Plese--a foremost authority on Christian Gnosticism--here offer a valuable compilation of over 40 ancient gospel texts and textual fragments that do not appear in the New Testament. This comprehensive collection contains Gospels describing Jesus's infancy, ministry, Passion, and resurrection, and includes the controversial manuscript discoveries of modern times, such as the Gospel of Thomas and the most recent Gospel to be discovered, the Gospel of Judas Iscariot. Each translation begins with a thoughtful examination of important historical, literary, and textual issues in order to place the Gospel in its proper context. This volume is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in early Christianity and the deeper meanings of these apocryphal Gospels.
