THE BIBLIODRAMA AND ITS SPIRITUAL POTENTIAL
Journal Title: Acta Missiologica - Year 2018, Vol 12, Issue 2
Abstract
Background: Bibliodrama is one of the creative approaches to the Bible connected with group work. It provides its participants with the possibility to find the message of a biblical text through being involved in it with their whole person, including their emotions, feelings, experience, body, and mind. There are various methods used in bibliodramatic work, including artistic, musical, dramatic, verbal, etc. Since scientific exegesis plays an important role in the preparation of Bibliodrama workshops, its leaders must be theologians or persons with a theological background, not only because of the need for exegetical preparation but also because of the possible questions and problems which may arise during a session. Conclusion: The question about God and one’s own faith is one of the most important existential questions, and, at the same time, one of the most intimate and deepest internal matters for a person. Therefore, this paper sought to explore the significance of the spiritual dimension and potential of this method. With respect to practical implications in this field, it can be asserted that Bibliodrama is one of the most important methods that can help its participants discover and experience that the message of biblical texts concerns them personally and that the word of God is real and effective.
