BRAVE We Stand!

An Adventure Camp Story

Created by Ricky Cassford & Heather Davenport
Written by Ricky Cassford

Based in John 8:34-36 & Matthew 20:26-28, and using Daniel’s life in Babylon as inspiration, BRAVE We Stand is an original nautical adventure of piratical proportions that vividly demonstrates the Gospel. Daniel Naughton, the Governor’s son, along with the attendees of his birthday voyage are kidnapped by pirates, and he must learn what it means to be BRAVE in the midst of captivity. Through sea shanties that remind them of biblical truths and a silly tutor who encourages and emboldens the kidnapped kids, this adventure takes the audience on a ride of joy, sorrow, sacrifice, and redemption that will bring laughter, tears, and exhilaration to the quest in discovering the kind of BRAVE God wants us all to be.

Audition!

Individual auditions times-slots, for Brave We Stand, are available the evenings of March 24th and 28th, or the morning of the 29th. Call-backs will be held the afternoon of March 29th. In order to be prepared for your audition you will need to choose, and be familiar with, two brief monologues from the exceprts of the script found HERE, and be familiar with THIS sea shanty.

Back To The Cross

A Kids’ Musical Adventure Through Time

Created by Christy Semsen
Arranged by Daniel Semsen

Abandoned long ago and nearly forgotten, the H/O-2000 is discovered by the kids in our story while attending the annual VBS program at Midway Community Church. A series of time-traveling escapades ensue, taking our intrepid gang of time-jumpers on a wild ride, immersing them in strange times and cultures (including the totally tubular 1980s, the roaring ‘20s, the Wild, Wild West, and even the Garden of Gethsemane!), all leading to a point of discovery about the importance of the Cross and the message of the Gospel.
