More to Life - www.mtlresources.org
More to Easter is an ideal event for Christians to invite and bring friends to who are not used to church. The production helps people who are not necessarily familiar with the Christian faith to grasp the real message of Easter 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 to explore Christianity further.
More to Easter is hosted by one of the Viz-A-Viz Ministries evangelists, Dennis Pethers or Mike Simmonds and performed by Envizage Theatre Company. It is a multimedia presentation including professionally produced visual material.
The event is in two halves. In the first half the host welcomes the audience, introduces the evening and Envizage. Everything from Easter eggs, hot cross buns, bunny rabbits and the reason behind the changing dates of Easter each year is explored in a humorous way. The significance of the Easter story is unpacked, focusing on the death and resurrection of Jesus using powerful theatre and moving film footage.
Following the interval the event focuses on the meaning of the Easter message for people today. This includes a dramatic contemporary re-telling of the parable of the prodigal son through storytelling, theatre and visual media that demonstrate the impact of the Gospel.
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. We recommend 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.
