Just a little window into the script-development process.
“When Grace Appeared” is the working title of my newest production, and the earliest spark was this powerful painting I saw last Christmas Eve. I came home and started to compile a program…
…and nothing came of it. It was too big, and too much.
Fast-forward to this November.
My sister’s church invited me to perform my 2017 Mary monologue for their women’s Christmas dessert, and asked if I could edit it to add some specific themes. I wrestled with the writing process and before the monologue behaved, I had the idea of a letter from Eve to Mary, and that script practically wrote itself (Nothing like a deadline on one project to spark ideas for something brand new ).
What would the original mother – and original sinner – say across the ages to a young pregnant woman carrying the Messiah?
The two monologues ended up being completed together, and fit with each other better than I could ever have planned if I had set to write them together.
I needed a third speaker to round out the story arc (you know I have to have a redemption element, because otherwise what’s the point of Christmas?) and Mary Magdalene is the perfect third monologue. She’s a follower of Christ, she helped bury Him, and was the first to witness His resurrection.
Just imagine her, clutching burial cloths and a jar of spices to her chest, tears streaming down her face, saying “I believed you, Jesus. … And then I buried you.” *Lights down*.
And so, as of today this brand new program is outlined, two monologues are complete, and the third is underway.
Proverbs 31 can be a tough passage for us single women. In many conservative churches itâs held as the ultimate standard of Biblical femininity (perhaps even to the point of imbalance) and many Mothers Day sermons speak directly to wives and moms about their roles as a âProverbs 31 womanâ.
While marriage and family are certainly spaces where much sacrifice and sanctification occur, whatâs highlighted in the Scriptural text is hardly exclusive to those relationships. Thereâs no mention of specific parenting techniques, let alone marital communication or sexual intimacy. Â
This section of Scripture is written as a wise woman telling her son what type of young woman – a single woman – who he can envision doing these actions and modeling these behaviors.
This chapter places an ideal womanâs honorable actions and behaviors in the context of marriage and family, not the confines.
With that in mind, letâs look at some of the specific verses and how they can be applied for us single women today. Iâll use examples from my own experience, because I think itâs important for us as believers to recognize our own growth in maturity.
Think about how these principles play out already in your own life.
Even though it is and always be imperfect and marred by sin, donât shy away from the Christlikeness you see in yourself! We know that it is His work in us, and it is a praise to our Savior to recognize that work taking root and bearing fruit.Â
______________
The heart of her husband trusts in her,
and he will have no lack of gain.
She does him good, and not harm,
all the days of her life.
I work in a small company, and we work very closely. I have to be someone my colleagues can trust implicitly, especially when Iâm filling in for them: that Iâll treat everyone with kindness and respect, that Iâll be cheery and welcoming to their clients, that I wonât say anything abrasive or promise something beyond the scope of my knowledge.
In the department I lead, I have to build that trust with my teammates so they know I judge as fairly as I can, that Iâm looking out for their best interests, and that Iâll always support them during tough days and celebrate them during happy ones.
Over months and years (and plenty of failures and hard conversations along the way), we develop that deeper level of trust. Itâs led to some pretty amazing collaborations, teamwork, and an in-sync-ness that Iâve never had in a prior workplace – because we know each other so well, weâve seen each other fail, and still we trust.
She rises while it is yet night
and provides food for her household
and portions for her maidens.
The portions for the maids refers to setting up their tasks for the day. Any project manager knows thatâs a job in itself – deciding on priorities, budget, logistics, and coordinating labor and energy across multiple projects at a time, each with shifting due dates and fires that inevitably arise.
I often think of this verse and also verse 18 (âher lamp does not go out at nightâ) when Iâm the first to arrive at or last to leave the office. Itâs usually to prepare for what my calendar tells me will be a hectic day. I want to get in front of it to make what decisions I can ahead of time in a calm headspace and push out important information to teammates in a coherent fashion.
She considers a field and buys it;
with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.
She perceives that her merchandise is profitable.
Her lamp does not go out at night.
She puts her hands to the distaff,
and her hands hold the spindle.
She makes linen garments and sells them;
she delivers sashes to the merchant.
She seeks wool and flax,
and works with willing hands.
She looks well to the ways of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
Much is said about this womanâs work ethic and business acumen, and these are where itâs perhaps easier for us single women to draw parallels to our own lives and careers. I see here a woman with vision, who judges carefully and makes wise choices.
She also puts in the work – these sashes do not make themselves and the vineyard doesnât plant itself either. Those end results are the product of daily labor, finessing a skill, and discovering how to make them profitable.
She opens her hand to the poor
and reaches out her hands to the needy.
Generosity is a characteristic of the Proverbs 31 woman. When you donate funds, or drop off a homemade meal to a sick church member, or volunteer your time in service of your community, you are emulating this beautiful woman.
Strength and dignity are her clothing,
and she laughs at the time to come.
She opens her mouth with wisdom,
and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
This spirit of grace and optimism is welcome at any healthy workplace. Wisdom and kindness have a grounding effect on an office or a conversation – you become known as someone who doesnât make rash decisions, or take offence easily, or gossip behind othersâ backs. These qualities then build that trust that your employees, vendors, clients and colleagues have in you.
Also, the time you spend setting up life insurance, or rehabbing a rental property, or making contributions to your IRA/401k, or spending time at the gym or planning nutritious meals is all well worth it. Putting things in order financially and staying healthy physically have their place too in the process of âlaughing at the future.â
Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.
This woman in Proverbs 31 is rewarded for her labor and praised publicly for her character. When you succeed in your career – negotiating that raise or earning a professional award, accept it as the fruit of your labor. We know that âevery good and perfect gift comes from aboveâ, so these achievements are something to humbly rejoice in and be grateful for – because we know Whom to be grateful to.
As you read these observations and examples, where do you see your character and your actions fitting those of the Proverbs 31 woman?
Does recognizing those alleviate any pressure around the aura of this rather intimidating woman?
Where do you see areas for growth and development in your own life, at the stage youâre in today?
Every once in a while I hijack my own blog to post something not-quite-on-topic. This is one of those times.
I See You, Single Woman
I see you, single woman, Eating cereal over a sink too late at night Back aching and feet sore After a twelve-hour shift
I see you, single woman, As you drop presents on a strangerâs dark porch And wonder where youâll be On Christmas morning
I see you, single woman, As you glance around the dinner table Counting spaces for the couples and high chairs So as not to inconvenience anyone
I see you, single woman, As you celebrate yet another beaming woman Planning, supporting, confetti-ing Wondering when it will finally be your turn
I see you, single woman, Happy and fulfilled but Wishing that your milestones could be As feted as the girl’s with the ring
I see you, single woman, When you scream into your pillow Because no human is close enough To hold whatâs in your heart
I see you, single woman, As you rotate which trustees you speak to So the weight of your soul Doesnât rest too heavy on any one
I see you, single woman, As you battle the temptations and lust The darkness that so many forget Haunts us all
I see you, single woman, Wishing you could ask for help Not because you canât do it But because you canât do it all
I see you, single woman, As you plan for the future Collect your house keys, set up insurance And live the life God calls you to
I see you, single woman, as you embrace your roles Square your shoulders and offer your hands Organize a project and lead that team Serve your church and follow your God
I see you, single woman, Happy, growing, content Satisfied with your life – and truly alive

These five include three I’ve produced and directed over the last three years, plus the one that was supposed to happen last Easter and didn’t (thanks Covid), and one super unique one that I can’t wait to see produced somewhere outside my garage.
I’m thrilled to share these works outside of my local community church, to see them come to life across a larger region, to take some of the burden off local churches and organizers by providing doctrinally sound, reverent, and feasible scripts and program outlines.
When I wrote my website goals for 2020, I envisioned that I’d be making this announcement months ago, in plenty of time for the 2020 holiday season, not 10 days before Christmas!
As a one-woman show, the speed of this passion project runs at the speed of …me. I have several scripts completed and ready to share with the community churches of the world, and so many ideas beyond that, and it’s only my time and energy that is holding all of it back.
I’m remembering that one of the lessons of 2020 is grace. Grace for my own weaknesses and limitations; grace for the seasons of just-plain-tiredness as we face a difficult year, political unrest and a global pandemic….So I’m choosing to celebrate the mini wins along the way. Here’s to a launched Etsy store, and here’s to more scripts coming out soon!
Social media marketing sometimes gets a bad rap in church circles. Itâs persuasive, maybe even manipulative. Itâs expensive and time-consuming. Itâs shallow and a reflection of our me-me-me culture.
And sure, that *can* be the case. Like any tool weâre given, social media is amoral, and can be used for good or for evil, with pure intentions or with base motives. Hereâs why itâs awesome:
Itâs free and easy to use.
Most of your church members are probably already there – especially these days, itâs how we socialize.Â
Social media offers functions that no free website does (hashtags, tagging, followers, event RSVPS all in one place) -and you donât have to spend months building SEO to get views, like you would on an event/church website (which you should already have btw).
If your church doesnât yet use social media for your large recurring events (or *gasp* at all), start with my Social Media Guide for Churches (but be sure to come right back!)
Today weâre going to break down a method for marketing church events on social media (with a dash of other elements). This is meant for those big events – the huge community festival or the doctrine conference – that happen every year or two and have a thematic continuity each time. For the sake of this guide, weâre going to use the example of a church conference.
If youâre already in tune with social media marketing basics and just want to get the scoop on 20+ types of content to post, scrooooooooll down to âBut What Do I Post About?â for all the details.
Assign a publicity chair
Marketing your churchâs conference is a job in and of itself. Itâs not something to shove at someoneâs teenager or add to the church receptionistâs plate.
The publicity chair needs to have a seat on the planning committee and be well versed in the vision, themes and directions of the conference. Theyâre going to be responsible for taking those abstracts and creating a concrete set of social media posts, from significant to trivial, that convey your eventâs vision and your churchâs values.
Decide on a branding package
Donât let the term scare you. At a basic level, this just means youâve decided on what fonts, colors, logos, background images and so on fit the tenor and themes of the conference. Those elements offer a consistent thread throughout all your conference marketing: your social media profile pictures and infographics, blog headers, banner-style cover photos, and should be used in all marketing emails and any event website/webpage as well.
Set up the appropriate accounts & pages
A Facebook event page is the bare minimum. Just do it.
For an annual conference, Iâd set up dedicated Facebook and Instagram accounts. Provide posting access to one or two key people only, with clear communication around who is responsible for adding content and writing copy, responding to comments & DMs, and posting Stories.
Even if the links and redirects go to the event page on your churchâs main website, the âwelcome matâ of your social media accounts are consistent, clear, and on topic for the specific purpose: the conference.
NOW FOR THE FUN STUFF
Posting Activity
When people are curious about a page they just landed on, theyâre usually checking how (1) recent and (2) consistent the content is. While you certainly do NOT need to post year-round about your annual conference, there are at least three time periods that should reflect a higher level of activity:
Announcing the conference and/or opening registration (for large conferences, sometimes the announcement of the dates is weeks or months prior to registration opening, or even at the prior yearâs event!)
Leading up to the event weekend & throughout
Videos/sessions released online (whether free or for purchase)
If youâre starting these pages brand new, plan out at least 4-6 pieces of content over a few weeks to show some sort of history (this could include highlights, favorite quotes, video clips and so on from the prior year).
Quick Tips for Growing An Audience
Facebook
Both you as an admin, and church members as followers, can invite their friends to follow the page. This is one of the fastest ways to grow an initial follower group.Â
Share event page posts on your main church page to direct viewers there to check it out.
Instagram
HASHTAGS are amazing! A lot of people follow specific hashtags, and check out new users. #churchconference and related hashtags around your topics & themes are important to use on every post.
Share posts to your churchâs Stories and encourage others to do so too to spread the word.
Both
Announce the new social media platforms to your church and ask those who are interested in the conference to follow them; explain that event details will be consistently disbursed there, making those pages an informational resource.
Include social links in all email correspondence, and include them in a prominent place on the website. Refer to the Facebook event page as the go-to place for announcements and up-to-the-minute information.
This is why Iâm such a fan of having separate, individual accounts for recurring events. If Iâm driving three hours to a Christian conference, Iâm invested enough to follow it on Instagram to both get excited and stay informed. But I probably donât want to see random posts from the hosting church all year about their new Sunday School teacher or where the high school short term missions trip went.Â
On the flip side, if I attend that church but donât have kids, Iâm going to get really tired of seeing weekly posts about the upcoming parenting conference cluttering my feed, when what Iâm wanting to get are my pastorsâ mini devotionals, service livestreams and church announcements.
Itâs hard enough to build an audience. Give them what theyâre there for.
But What Do I Post About?
Muahahahaha I saved the best for last. Here are plenty of ideas about what to post during those key timeframes leading up to: opening conference registration, the event itself, and the weeks following:
Leading up to Conference Registration Opening
Ensure that the About sections of your social media accounts are updated and have correct website links, dates and so on.
Post video clips from last yearâs event (30-60 seconds) to show the caliber & quality of your conferences.Â
Email last yearâs attendees asking them to (1) write reviews on the Facebook page of their experience at the conference and (2) send in short cellphone videos of how theyâve used the teaching in the last year (perhaps do a random drawing for a pair of tickets or a local attraction/dinner out gift card to incentivize participation!). This is two-fold: past attendees are now more emotionally involved in the success of your event, and youâll use the videos as testimonials.
Create a promo video (or graphic) & text post about this yearâs event, that includes the basic when-where-how much information and a link to your website where visitors can register and get all the details. Save this as a PINNED POST on Facebook to keep it at the top of the page. From now on, this is your anchor. No more talking about last year!
Announce registration! (send another email to your mailing list here too)
Space out your âpast attendee experienceâ videos as hype posts for âwhy you should registerâ.
Post about early bird discounts and post warnings when prices change.
Post information (link to a blog post or webpage if itâs too long) regarding travel, driving directions, accommodations, weather, etc.Â
Hyping up the event
Post a video/photo and bio of each speaker, their topic and their background.
Introduce the hosting church, planning committee and key behind-the-scenes players. This makes people feel like they know you and it’s really part of digital hospitality.
Answer FAQs that are rolling in; there should be a webpage on these but can also be snippets spread out on social.
Continue to share past-attendee testimonials as appropriate.
The Last Week
Now your attendees are really mentally engaged in the process. Theyâre packing an overnight bag or making sure the babysitter will arrive on time. Smaller, fun pieces of content are much more interesting now than they would have been three months ago. While youâll still get registrations veeeeery late in the process, the bulk of your audience has already committed and your communication is getting them emotionally psyched to actually go do this thing.
Instagram & Facebook stories are fantastic for this – theyâre more casual than a post and since they disappear in 24 hours, they fit those fleeting moments so well.
Posts
Reaffirm how excited you and the entire planning committee and speakers are for the conference
Reaffirm the vision and purpose of the conference
Explain process for last-minute registrations
Tell people where to go when they arrive (âPre-registrations will line up under the blue banner, day-of under the white. Once youâve checked in, enjoy coffee and scones before we beginâ, etc.
Weekend itinerary & reminder where to find it on the website
Stories
Shaky-cam cellphone video walking through the setup process, waving at the people setting up chairs and the A/V team in the sound booth.
Sneak peaks of the worship team/worship music, the video packages, lighting etc.
Closeups of table centerpieces, breakfast trays, the printed program, etc.
Afterward
Thank people for attending!!Â
Share snippets of anonymized anecdotes from the event – things you heard people say, how far someone traveled to be there.
Providing a link to a feedback form or website
Post highlight videos from each of the speakers and ask for comments about what people learned/are digesting from the weekend.
Ask attendees to write a Review of their experience on the Facebook page
Remind attendees of next yearâs conference dates
In conclusion
As with any brainstorm list, this one can be overwhelming! Keep in mind that this content plan is meant to be spaced out over weeks and even months. And not every conference or church event needs a full court press. If marketing an event on social media is new to you, just start with a few of the ideas, and layer in a couple more each time. Youâll get more used to the process and start noticing the little moments and snagging a quick picture for the âgram almost without thinking.
At the end of the day, social media marketing for your churchâs conference is just one of the pieces that makes the event a success. Itâs also a challenge, but a fulfilling one. You got this.
If your church is in need of some help with social media in general, head over to my Social Media Guide for Churches for a downloadable PDF that breaks down quick ideas on building a consistent and sustainable social media presence for your church.
Iâm always on the hunt for original Christmas music. Well-written songs hit our ear with old truth in a new way, and our callused ears and hearts sometimes need that to refresh the wonder we so easily lose. So I jumped at the chance to review this new childrenâs album: The King Has Arrived (available to order here).Â
Like any time Iâm working on a project, I opened up my laptop in a local coffee shop. The sky grew dark as I listened, and the soft lighting over the live edge wood tables made them glow and the space became extra cozy – the perfect setting for listening to Christmas music. It was a quiet Tuesday evening, and I listened to the album from start to finish.
Other reviewers can speak to tonal quality, recording style, lyrical excellence and the other elements that make a song or album great. Iâm listening for singability, listenability, and the potential of the music to fit into the backing track of the Christmas experience, but more importantly, the possibility of using the music in a church Christmas program (…since thatâs kinda what I do here).
Iâm looking for (1) singability, (2) a message, and (3) inspiring lyrics and sounds. Also a progression of meaning – Iâm not a fan of those worship songs that repeat the same basic truth without diving into any detail or creating any story arc (#triggered).
I didnât know what to expect at all – I donât know the artist personally and wasnât familiar with the project prior to an international Facebook group call for pre-listens. And boy was I surprised!
The album is a blend of songs and dramatic storytelling, complete with dialogue and sound effects.
We join some rather eccentric scientists on a spaceship, where they have just discovered that the ship toaster also doubles as a time machine. The characters bounce to different eras in pre-Christmas history, telling the story of Creation, the Fall, and Godâs promises for a Deliverer.Â
Each chapter is followed by an original song and the songs span the stylistic gamut – from a country ballad to Sinatra-esque crooning, to several other retro-inspired styles I recognize but canât put a name to (but ones Iâm sure adults over 40 will be familiar with).
My individual favorite song is the first track: âHeâs Here.â Itâs very singable, with three verses covering creation, cross, and glorification. The lyrics are simple but the story progression is there. If you know me and my narrative-and-context-based-writing style, you know this song would be a PERFECT fit for how I do things! Because of the simplicity of the melody, I could see using this as a congregational worship song, or as the closing song for a kidsâ production – to wrap up all the themes and bring the show in for a landing.Â
Now, hereâs the thing: the fictional setting is a group of mad scientists (with epic accents) travelling through time via pumpernickel bread shoved into a malfunctioning toaster. Thatâs not exactly the type of concept that ends up in my brainstorm list of Christmas program ideas.Â
Hereâs why: I generally donât like doctrine obliquely shoved into a fictional theme (*cue rant about the cringe factor of most Christian movies, especially when theyâre selling evangelistic dating).Â
BUT I recognize the value in (a) making Biblical truth accessible for children who may not have grown up with Bible stories or Sunday School, and (b) refreshing the âsame-old, same-oldâ feel for the kiddos whoâve heard Luke 2 read every year of their short lives.
Some of us grew up on The Donut Man, or GT and the Halo Express, or Veggie Tales. This is the same strategy, for a new generation.
Reframing the Christmas story in this fanciful, goofy-time-travel-via-toaster could spark a Christmas tradition for your family. Â
One safeguard built into this album is that the silly fictional elements are clearly separated from the historical truth. The astronaut and his toaster are merely the gateways for a clear (if simple) presentation of the gospel. And at the end of the day, as much as a child will giggle at the silliness of antics within the spaceship, it is the toe-tapping Biblical lyrics that will stick.
Most importantly, this album has a strong doctrinal basis, and avoids the seriously simplistic messages of some childrenâs program scripts Iâve read (Iâm looking at you, comic-relief-4th -Magi who doesnât know how to shop).Â
Because Tinker and Co. ground the story in the story of the Fall and even some elements of Old Testament history, listeners are welcomed into a story that starts long before a manger in Bethlehem:
Weâre introduced to a God Who has a plan (âHeâs Hereâ).Â
A God Who keeps His promises (âA Long, Long Time Agoâ).
A God Who meets His people where they are (âDown, Downâ).
And a God Who is worthy of trust (âKing of the Nationsâ).
Well folks, it’s been a LONG time since I sat down and opened up WordPress. My work’s busy season kicked in big time after my county opened up a bit, and plenty of the summer was spent just trying to keep my head above water there.
I also interviewed a local videographer, and I’m working on a guide for livestreaming a creative Christmas production since I’m guessing a fair number of our churches may be doing that this year!
But the main project that’s been happening behind the scenes has been recording, editing and publishing the first five episodes of the YOUTUBE CHANNEL!
I’m SO excited about this – text can sometimes be dry and many of us engage better with a fast-paced video. So I’ve taken 5 of the top posts on the blog and turned them into 6 to 15-minute video breakdowns.
These were a ton of fun to film – even though we were in the middle of a heat wave for one of them…and I have to film with my window closed to avoid road noise. (#thisiswhatIsufferforthesakeofart)
Since I’m such a big context person, this was probably my favorite episode to record:
But that’s not all…
You already know I curate a Music Database, with a plethora of music to choose from for any section of your production, and which includes links to piano music, lead sheets, and performance tracks.
On the YouTube channel, I’ve created a special custom playlist JUST for the unique Christmas music you can find on this website. It’s not mixed in with secular tunes and arrangements of all the same traditional hymns. As of this writing it’s over 30 separate songs, lined up and ready for you to listen through as you prepare your Christmas production.
Thanks to a reader of this blog, the Social Media Guide for Churches is now available in Spanish! David reached out and shared his translation with me, and now it’s available for all of you!
COVID-19 has changed how churches do church. With the building obsolete for the moment (besides as a filming location), church leaders have figured out how to livestream. Theyâve jumped on Instagram and Facebook to meet their congregations where we are â on social media.
This can bring with it a steep learning curve. Someone might be used to posting vacation pictures, or talking with friends on their personal page, but would be intimidated by running a public account.
Here’s what you’ll find:
Four core categories of church social media content (and ideas for implementing each).
How to create a âlookâ through consistent design and styling.
How to post content regularly without it becoming overwhelming.
It’s been a while since I’ve posted on the blog. My writing sessions often go in waves between the public posts and the behind-the-scenes personal writing or script development, and these last several weeks, both have been lacking.
As my state has slowly opened up new activities, it’s been incredible to expand my social life again and also to be back to work and in the midst of my industry’s busy season. My current busyness is in stark contrast to the quietness of April, and yet I’m grateful for the pieces of that stillness that have stayed with me, and continue to add depth to the louder, fast-paced season I’m outwardly in right now.
There have been a couple of developments behind the scenes that I’m excited to share with you!
Hadassah of Susa: new scene
Although May held plenty of isolation and anxiety for me personally, it also resulted in a second edition (still under construction) of Hadassah of Susa with an additional scene: I dive into those three days of fasting and praying, and explore the emotional and spiritual turmoil she may have felt.
A Church’s Guide to Social Media: Now Bilingual
One of my readers reached out to me and said he’d translated the Social Media Guide for Churches into Spanish for his ministry leaders! Thank you David, both for your translation work and for being willing to share it with the iorganizedthat.com audience!
That’s all I’ve got for you today! You can expect the blog to be fairly quiet as I wrangle the adventures of busy season at work, but don’t forget there are plenty of published resources for your perusal (the Production Guide is a great place to start).
