Sounds like the ignition module got too hot and shut down until it cooled off.
I am not familiar with the Dodge vans, but what you described was the identical symptoms that effected the Ford Rangers that had the ignition module on the distributor a few years back. The would get too hot and the engine would shutoff. It was like you turned the key to the off position, and wouldn't restart until it had cooled down.
You could pour bottled water on the module to cool it and restart.
