MinistryHub.com Publishing Presents: Ann Marie Deace


Ann Marie DeaceWe at MinistryHub.com are committed to bringing you only the best in product for you to use in the communication of your weekly message. It's for that reason that we are proud to announce the we have now signed Ann Marie Deace, not only to make her fantastic scripts available to you, but also to welcome her to the MinistryHub.com team as our official drama "expert." Ann Marie resides in Naperville, Illinois with her husband Mark and three children Eric, Grant, and Matthew, where she attends Crossroads Community Church in Naperville, and is currently a volunteer drama leader for the writing/directing team. She has written countless original sketches and full-length productions, both for churches and community events that will now be made available to you.
"I have been a theater enthusiast for as far back as I can remember. Using live theater to touch the hearts of an audience has been a life long passion. Bringing an honest and unfiltered slice of life to the forefront of peoples consciousness and then using that impact to set up a message is such an amazing thing to witness. Having served on staff as Drama Director over the span of 15 years at three various churches both in Chicago and Michigan brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise on what makes for an impactful sketch. The process of taking a sketch concept and then bringing in all the elements needed to perform a piece with excellence can be a real challenge. I hope that I can serve you in making your drama efforts successful."
Ann Marie Dean


Final Preview: The Store At MinistryHub.com


Thumbnail of The StoreFor our last and final preview, before we launch MinistryHub.com BETA, we will be looking at what we have called, The Store. (Pretty original title huh?) Although an online store by itself is not unique, The Store here at MinistryHub.com does have something unique about it, in that it's more like several stores combined into one. For the past few months we have been diligently pursuing other content providers to compile and make as much product available to you as possible. So it's with great joy that we are able to tell you that MinistryHub.com has partnered with Sermonspice.com , Praisecharts.com , iTunes , Amazon , Musicnotes.com , and MinistryWarehouse.com as well as launch MinistryHub.com Publishing, signing music arrangers, drama writers, and graphic artists.

Let's say you have just brainstormed your selected topic for ideas, say Marriage, and you are now in the The Results area looking at the list of ideas that have been suggested. You know you need a special, so you select "Fly" by Sara Groves. (A great song for Marriage by the way) from the music list located in The Results. So your now inside The Store for the title "Fly" and it's here you see that you can now download the mp3 from iTunes, as well as purchase a music chart from MusicNotes.com. Through this system we will basically be doing the searching of product for you, music and charts, downloadable videos, dvd's, graphics will all be brought to you inside The Store at MinistryHub.com.
