Why act out Bible stories?

"When you assemble, each one has a psalm, a teaching, a revelation, a tongue, an interpretation..." 1 Cor. 14:26

...Teach and admonish one another... Col. 3:16

God requires total participation and interaction during teaching and worship time! A good way to involve everyone, including children, is for adults and children to briefly act out Bible stories together and then ask discussion questions such as...
  • What was God's message for us?
  • How will we apply it in our lives?
  • How will we apply it with other people?
Folks learn and obey God’s Word far more readily in both educated and illiterate societies,  when they participate in, or view, demonstrations. The Holy Spirit uses the Bible much more powerfully when one helps to teach and apply, rather than simply listening passively as a hearer only. Believers seldom forget truths that they have seen portrayed dramatically.

Bible studies that include a Bible story to act out each week during worship:

  • They each fit on one sheet of paper―one for leaders and another for children, on the same topic.
  • All children's studies have a Bible story to act out in 2 to 4 minutes during worship time.
  • Let adults and children act them out together for best results.
