Bible Story Skits Unit 5 The Lord's Prayer Sermon on the Mount and Prodigal Son

Bible story skits are the perfect addition to your classroom, VBS, Backyard Bible Club, Sunday School, Children’s Church—you name it! This bundle includes the stories of the Lord's Prayer, the Sermon on the Mount, and the Parable of the Two Sons.

You will be presenting these well-known Bible stories as a spontaneous melodrama. This means the “actors” will be chosen from the crowd and do not need to practice the skit beforehand.

This download gives you the fifth bundle of skits in this series (color AND b&w). Unit 5 is all about God modelling things for us:

• God Models Prayer (The Lord's Prayer)
• God Models Love (The Sermon on the Mount)
• God Models Forgiveness (The Parable of Two Sons/Prodigal Son)

These skits bring the gospel to life in a fun and interactive way. You will see that each story spotlights the role of Jesus. We feel it is critical to recognize the powerful work of Jesus throughout the Bible, not just in the New Testament.

Directions:

1. Read over the Biblical excerpt for this story. Be ready to answer questions that arise about the story and Jesus’ role.

2. Read through the script before presenting it. Be familiar with the numbers and types of “actors” needed, the cues, and the main theme of the message.

3. Warm the audience up by introducing the story and gaining interest.

4. Choose actors from the crowd. Have a very brief pow-wow with them to explain their role and give them directions on where to sit and when to enter/exit.

5. Narrate the script to the crowd, giving cues to “actors” when you see italicized directions. When you come across character names, cue “actors” to act out this part.

6. After the skit concludes, answer any questions and look for students that may need more conversation.
