Creative Bible teaching often includes the use of a variety of Bible teaching methods, including different forms of drama.
Some frequently asked questions about using drama as a Bible teaching method:
Isn’t drama a worldly type of method?
If we look through Scripture, we find God using forms of drama in communicating. God could have merely told writers of Scripture what to write but at times dramatized what He wanted them to know in a vision. Sometimes He instructed the prophets to act out what was about to happen. The real issue for Bible teachers is the content and purpose for which drama is used. That’s what determines whether it’s good or evil, beneficial or not.
Other Questions:
Doesn’t cost prohibit many Bible classroom teachers from using drama?
How does the age of students factor in to use of drama in the classroom?
What if I don’t have a flair for the dramatic?
You’ll find responses to the above questions in the Bible Teacher’s Handbook of Frequently Asked Questions which also looks at 48 other teaching issues, asking a total of 153 questions.
