I am a local church pastor who has used puppets to help me deliver concepts in ways mere "preaching" or storytelling couldn't. And the appeal isn't simply to the children. I have adults who will come to me weeks after a particularly lively puppet visit with comments about how much the "children" enjoyed the puppet, and how much they appreciated the insight shared. Frequently the twinkle in the eye conveys that they too were a child for a time while viewing the lesson that was fun. May we always be able to see the more inclusive nature of life and community!
