Puppetry Handbook for Christian LeadersThis illustrated 48 page book is designed for those who want to start a puppet ministry or for those who want to enhance their existing ministry. It is full of ideas that have been tested for many years and is designed for the trainer or puppeteer to use. It contains ideas on how to build your own puppet stage, how to start a ministry, history of puppetry, how to train and evaluate potential puppeteers, how to brush up on their skills. Included are three professionally written skits about repentance and two different song sheets that compliment perfectly with the plays. One song sheet is from the popular hymnal song "Leave It There" and the other song is written by the author titled "Backslider Blues." |
