More to Life - www.mtlresources.org
More to Christmas is an ideal event for Christians to invite and bring friends to who are not used to church. It helps people who are not necessarily familiar with the Christian faith to grasp the real message of Christmas and its relevance to their lives today in a non-threatening way. It entertains, amuses and powerfully conveys the message.
At the close of the evening offering a discovery course is an ideal way to allow those who have attended the event to explore Christianity further.
More to Christmas is hosted by one of the Viz-A-Viz Ministries evangelists, Dennis Pethers or Mike Simmonds, and includes drama performed by Envizage Theatre Company. It is a multimedia presentation including professionally produced visual material.
The presentation begins with the hustle and bustle of preparations for Christmas. Envizage Theatre Company present their very own ‘Christmas Carol’, a humorous ‘pantomime telling’ of the Christmas story. After a short interval, they perform sketches that follow the shepherds and the wise men to the place of Jesus’ birth. They are both humorous and poignant.
The evangelist holds the entire presentation together using anecdotes and thought-provoking comments to link the theatre and visual media. The message presented is that the gift of Christmas, whilst wrapped in a manger, is the most meaningful gift in the world and relevant to people today.
There is an opportunity given to respond through offering a More to Life discovery course, More to Life DVD’s and magazines.
The event lasts for one hour forty minutes with a short five minute interval to enable set changes. It is recommended that refreshments are served at the end, giving opportunity for the team to engage in conversation with those in the audience who have questions about what they have seen.
