The Road To Easter: The Road Beyond Easter

Video Illustration

Produced by Skit Guys

Jesus was all about connecting people, to him and each other. Much like the roots of a giant Redwood tree, those of us in the Christian faith are intertwined. We are firmly rooted in our faith and connected to one another so we can continue the message and mission of Jesus. We are to step out and love, heal, care for and give to those around us. This beautiful video calls your congregation into the journey of discipleship, living out Jesus’ call for us to be His church and love the world.

The Glory Of Christmas: Mary

Video Illustration

Produced by Skit Guys

When she’s cast as Mary in the church’s production of “The Glory of Christmas” stage play, Heather is convinced it’s only because she’s 31 weeks pregnant. Struggling with her identity as mom of two college-age kids with a new baby on the way, she begins to identify with Mary, realizing that neither of them were prepared for how their plans for the future would be disrupted. Ultimately Heather realizes that Mary trusted God, and she could let go of her plans, her questions, and, like Mary, let the Good Shepherd carry her. This video is part of the mockumentary-style series, “The Glory of Christmas.”
