Purpose of our Ministry

THE ACADEMY OF ARTS doesn't evaluate its stage productions by measuring applause. Instead, team members count how many in the audience join them backstage after the performance. Team members are trained to be soulwinners and to counsel those that have a spiritual need. 

Click here to see a short Quicktime®  movie (.mov)  where Dr. Chavers speaks about the purpose of biblical drama.

That's THE ACADEMY OF ARTS measure of success! The invitation is more important than the production.  Since 1971, Dr. Nicky Chavers and his staff members have issued more than a 1000 invitations to the audiences of the Christian Drama Teams. The biblical plays are used as giant illustrations of whatever biblical truth that is being expressed.  The plays are simply vehicles to give out the gospel and to continue to "make the Bible come alive" to people in churches across America.

The young people who are ministering in the dramas have to be as spiritually full as a  preacher or an evangelist.  Young people can be good actors, but they've got to be good Christians with right priorities to see the Lord use their ministry in Christian Drama.
