Worship is more than music and preaching. We have also included resources in puppet ministry and drama. You will find short video clips that can be used during a worship service and they are identified by E-ssential. We have many of these tapes and each has several clips on them. Few are longer than five minutes so they lend themselves to this.

One way to use these clips would be to play one of the hymn stories. These clips give the story behind some of the great hymns you probably use. There are also clips sharing the stories behind many Christian songs.

If you have a favorite site that helps you and it is not listed, please let us know. We'll check it out and include it if deemed appropriate.
