Christian Short Skits
Church Drama Team
I am on the Church drama team and I write the material for short skits for Church. On the following pages you will find a few of my favorite Christian Skits, some of which (though scheduled) have yet to be performed.
Some of the Christian Short Skits for Church dramas included below are intended to show the Christian cause to reflect on God's goodness to us. Other Christian Skits are designed to impact our approach to living the Christian life and to give us encouragement to be involved in God's work.
In addition to single worship performances, I am including one of the multiple service Christian Skit dramas. It is intended to cover several weeks. We have found that this approach not only produces the effects listed in the preceding paragraph, but also is an instrument for continued church attendance as worshipers get "hooked" on the story line and want to come back to see what happens to the characters.
The last set of Christian short skits for Church that I have included are a series of Christian skits that some of our adults performed for the children during a one week long Vacation Bible School.
The Angel's Visit Christian Skit
CAST: June, Ted, Mary, Angel
SETTING: Home
PROPS: Gaudy Necklace
Mary and June are on stage.
Mary: Thanks for having me over June. We'd sure love to see you
at one of our Ladies' Missionary Outreach meetings.
June: What do you do there?
Mary: We write encouraging notes to our missionaries and put
together gift baskets for them. We also sponsor some fund raising
activities for them; and we have a good time while we're together.
June: Gee, I'd love to Mary, but I'm about to start a second
job. I just don't have time.
Mary: I understand. I'll see on you Sunday. Bye!
June: Okay. Thanks again for coming by today.
(Mary leaves. A moment later Ted enters from a different
direction, carrying necklace as a surprise gift.)
Ted: Hi Honey! I'm home. Was that Mary?
June: Yes. She came over for tea.
Ted: Did you have lots of entertaining girl talk?
June: It was nice, well except for when she would talk about
missions and giving. I would love to help, but we just don't have the
money right now. You know that I'm having to start that new job just
to meet our debts.
Ted: Yeah, we just can't help, not with the house payment, the
two cars, the internet-cell phone-cable package, swimming pool
maintenance, our credit card debt, your spa and my country club
membership, we can't spare a dime.
June: I know. We're still paying for last year's Christmas and
it's almost time to start buying again!
Ted: Hey, let's not talk about depressing things. You want to go
out and eat?
June: Sure! You know me; why eat at home when someone else will
do the dishes!
Ted: Great, because I have some good news.
June: What?
Ted: I got a big raise today! And here's a gift for you to
celebrate! (Puts necklace around June's neck.) It's a special,
one of a kind designer necklace.
June: Thank you Honey! It's beautiful! Does that mean we can
start planning our next big vacation?
Ted: Maybe, but I was thinking about getting that boat we've
always wanted.
June: Or maybe we can replace our furniture and you can get a
new wide screen TV.
Ted: You might have something there. Our TV is what, 2 years
old? The newer wide screen TVs are amazing. I just have to have one.
June: With my new job, maybe we can get the boat too!
Ted: That's a good idea! You know, maybe we could look at
getting a bigger house.
June: That would be wonderful. Something with a big dining
room. You know how much I love to entertain! (pause) I think I
hear a knock at the door. I bet you Mary left something.
Ted: (Loudly) Come in; it's open!
Angel enters from same direction that Mary left.
Ted: I don't believe I know you. Can we help you with something?
Angel: Do you know in the Bible where it says that sometimes you
may entertain angels unaware?
Ted: I think I've heard that.
Angel: I am an angel sent by God with this message, thus says
the Lord: You fools. Your souls are required of you tonight! Now, who
will all of these things you have belong to? You are to come with
me. Oh, and June, leave the necklace; you can't take it with you.
June removes the necklace as all exit the stage.
Basketball Christian Skit
CAST: Smith, Jones
SETTING: Court
PROPS: 1 basketball, Bible
Smith: (Walking up - with Bible) Hey Jones! Wanna go
shoot some hoops?
Jones: (With basketball.) Sure! You want the ball first?
Smith: Not here. I'm going to Jesus' place. He's got a great
court. Not like this dump.
Jones: How do you get there?
Smith: Just follow the Romans Road.
Jones: You say it's better there?
Smith: Yeah. He has a real nice court instead of this sandy
stuff - and no sand spurs!
Jones: Sounds good, I get tired of picking them out of my hands.
Smith: (Hands the Bible to Jones) Here are the rules for
His court.
Jones: Rules?
Smith: Yeah, no cheating, no foul play, no evil is allowed
there.
Jones: So I don't have to worry about getting an elbow in my
ribs when I'm doing a lay-up?
Smith: No!
Jones: What about kicked in the shin?
Smith: No! Oh, and plenty of water to drink with a nice place to
rest when you're tired. Food too. As a matter of fact, whatever you
need is there - and it's free!
Jones: I don't know. I don't think it's for me right now.
Smith: What do you mean?
Jones: You know how I like to pull a guy's shorts down when he's
taking a jump shot?
Smith: Yeah.
Jones: I won't be able to do that there.
Smith: But you're drinking hot water out of the faucet here,
when you could have cold, clear water there.
Jones: But I want to make up my own rules and play ball my way.
Smith: But your way is leading you nowhere. You'll always be
stuck here playing in hot sand, when you could have it so much better.
Jones: But this is where all of my friends are.
Smith: You can invite them to come along. Jesus' Father wants
everyone to come to His house.
Jones: No, my friends won't like it there either. I'm just going
to play here.
Smith: Okay. I can't make you go. The court is always open, but
you can never know when the invitation will close. Just do me a
favor? Study the materials I gave you. It tells you all about the
benefits of playing there compared to where you are now.
Bible Reading Christian Skit
CAST: Mom, Dad
SETTING: Kitchen Table
PROPS: 2 chairs, table, newspaper
Dad reads the paper at the table as Mom enters and sits.
Mom: I was just talking with Crystal.
Dad: What's new with our oldest daughter? Another new boyfriend
today?
Mom: No, she was telling me about Paul and Timothy.
Dad: Are those her last 2 boyfriends?
Mom: No. They were men in the Bible. Paul I've heard of, but who
is Timothy?
Dad: Timothy? Oh yeah, he was Bob Cratchit's son.
Mom: Wasn't that Tiny Tim?
Dad: No, Tiny Tim was the guy who sang Tip Toe Through the
Tulips.
Mom: Oh? I don't think Bob Cratchit was in the Bible. I think he
was in the story by Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol. You
know, with Mr. Scrooge?
Dad: You could be right. I always get Mr. Scrooge confused with
Donald Duck's Uncle Scrooge. So, why is our daughter talking to you
about these people?
Mom: She wanted help with her Sunday School lesson.
Dad: Really? You should have told her just like the Good Book
says, that God helps those who help themselves.
Mom: That won't work anymore.
Dad: Why not? Isn't she the one who says we should use the Bible
as a guide for our lives?
Mom: Well, yes. But the last time you told her that God helps
those who help themselves, she told me that wasn't in the Bible.
Dad: You're kidding me! Of course it's in there. She just
doesn't know it.
Mom: Honey, Crystal told me she's read the whole Bible, more
than once, and it's not there.
Dad: The Bible's got to be over 1,000 pages! That takes a long
time to read. When did she read it? In the 3 days between boyfriends?
Mom: On one of the cover pages of her Bible, she writes down
every time she finishes it. She says she starts at the beginning of
Genesis and reads 4 pages everyday until she gets to the end of
Revelation. She says it takes around a year.
Dad: Still, she must have overlooked that verse.
Mom: I don't think so. We don't even know what's in the Bible
and what's not. We don't know who Timothy is. I'm thinking we should
read it for ourselves. In just a few years, she'll be married and have
children of her own. I think we should be able to tell our
grandchildren what the Bible really has to say.
Church Front Door Fairy Christian Skit
Object Lesson: Christians should change their hearts toward
their families so they do not have to play the hypocrite when they
come to church.

SETTING: Church Front Door
PROPS: Magic Wand
Church Front Door Fairy waits with his/her wand as Church
Member walks up. Pastor is on the other side of the platform.

Church Member: You're our what?
Church Front Door Fairy: You've heard of your Fairy Godmother,
right?
Church Member: Yes.
Church Front Door Fairy: Well, I'm your Church Front Door Fairy.
Church Member: Does that mean you make all of our dreams come
true?
Church Front Door Fairy: No. I provide attitude adjustments.
Church Member: You do what?
Church Front Door Fairy: It's easier for you to understand if
you watch. Here comes a family now.
(Father, Mother, Child 1, and Child 2 approach.)
Child 1: She's looking at me.
Child 2: I am not!
Mother: I've just about had it with you girls. Look at your
clothes. They're already a mess.
Child 1: She's still looking at me.
Child 2: I am not!
Father: Maybe I should just take you kids back to the car right
now. I brought you into this world; I can take you out.
Mother: There's no need to talk to them like that.
Father: If that's the way you want it; that's the way it'll
be. I'll let my belt do the talking.
Church Front Door Fairy: One, two, three. (Points wand at
family as they walk by)
(All family members instantly have smiles as they approach
Pastor.)
Father: Good morning Pastor. We're looking forward to a
wonderful service.
Wife: Yes, the kids were just saying how much they enjoy Sunday
School.
(Family exits stage.)
Church Member: That's incredible. How often do you do this?
Church Front Door Fairy: More than you really want to know. Here
come some more customers.
Husband: Why do you have us late all of the time?
Wife: We're not late.
Husband: No, we just won't have a good seat. We'll have to sit
up front.
Wife: Please don't sit by that lady with the heavy perfume.
Husband: Maybe you should have thought about that this morning
instead of spending an hour with make-up and selecting shoes.
Church Front Door Fairy: One, two, three. (Points wand at
Husband and Wife as they walk by)
(Husband and wife instantly smile)
Husband: Good morning Pastor.
Wife: It's a glorious Sunday!
(Husband and wife exit stage)
Church Member: So amazing!
Church Front Door Fairy: How come I don't have to do this to you
and your family anymore?
Church Member: One day it I realized that next to God, my family
was the most valuable thing in my life. It occurred to me that I was
playing the hypocrite and setting a poor example for my family. I was
sinning against my family and against my God. That thought really
disgusted me, so I pled with God to change me and give me a new
heart. And He did.
Church Front Door Fairy: Maybe you should share that with
others. (Starts to walk away.)
Church Member: Hey, where are you going?
Church Front Door Fairy: It's the Smith family. I need a head
start with them. If I don't get to them in the parking lot, it's too
late.
Church Member: I would have never known.
Church Front Door Fairy: I take that as a compliment. Won't you
pray for them? (Exits)
Church Member: Yes. I will do that.
Financial Marriage Counseling Christian Skits gift
CAST: Pastor, Bernie, Ethyl
SETTING: Pastor's Office
PROPS: 3 chairs, table, Personal Expense list (sheet of
paper)
Pastor is sitting as Bernie and Ethyl enter. They are having
marriage difficulties, but not enough to make them hostile to each
other. Bernie has the Personal Expense List
Pastor: Come on in Bernie and Ethyl. It's always good to see
you.
Bernie: Thanks Pastor. Here's that there list of our spendin'
you asked fer.
(Bernie hands the list to Pastor as they sit.)
Pastor: Let's see. Normal things ... house payment ... car payments
... That's a lot for gasoline.
Ethyl: It's that big ol' truck of his. Why, that thing sucks
down gasoline faster than a hot dog eating champion swallows pigs in a
blanket.
Bernie: Yeah, but it's got a four-by-four that'll get er
done. She's got enough towing power to pull an aircraft carrier down a
dirt road.
Ethyl: Ask him Pastor what he pulls - ask him. I tell you what -
Nuthin! There ain't nuthin he pulls behind there.
Bernie: You're just a woman. You can't understand man
stuff. Besides, look at all that cargo space. There's enough space to
carry all of them worthless shoes you have.
Ethyl: Ha! Ask him what he carries, Pastor - ask him. Nuthin! That's
what - except'n fer car wax. He don't want his precious baby to get a
scratch. You can fergit usin' that four-by-four cause he ain't never
gonna take it off a paved road.
Pastor: Okay. Cigarettes and breath mints?
Bernie: The cigarettes are hers.
Ethyl: I know it sounds bad, but if I don't smoke I'll put on a
lot of weight. Bernie done told me he don't want no fat wife. He buys
the breath mints for me.
Bernie: She smokes like a chimney when she ain't at church. The
mints are cause kissin' her is like lickin' an ashtray.
Pastor: You seem to eat out a lot.
Ethyl: I jest get too tired to cook and I really don't like a
cleanin up all of that lard and bacon grease out of the pans and the
deep fat fryer.
Pastor: I see a lot of expense for medicines.
Bernie: Yep, that's mostly for my blood pressure. All you gotta
do is listen to her fuss and you'll know why I have high blood
pressure.
Pastor: You have a lot of credit card debt.
Bernie: Yeah. That's another reason my blood pressure's
high. Ethyl here likes spending money like it's a growin on trees.
Ethyl: I can't help it Pastor. I have a hard time explainin' it,
but it makes me feel good when I go to the mall and buy something fer
myself. Bernie here spends more money on his truck than he does on me.
Pastor: Hmmm. Dentist.
Bernie: Yeah. That's to whiten her yella teeth and I got swollen
gums.
Pastor: Probably because of your blood pressure medicine ... this
is a lot of money at the coffee shop.
Bernie: Yeah, I need somethin' to wake me up in the morning
afore I gets to work.
Ethyl: I know Pastor. I tell him it's too much money. I keep
tellin' him he needs to go to bed early, but does he listen? No. So
what does he do at night? Ask him Pastor ... ask him! I'll tell you what
he does. He stays up late at night a watchin that there Andy Griffin
and thems silly Three Stooges.
Bernie: You know I'm a night person.
Ethyl: Only cause you're all a full of caffeine.
Pastor: High electric bills.
Ethyl: That's cause Bernie likes it cold. Why, you can hang meat
in our house. It's a colder in there than an Eskimo with the top of
his igloo blown off a durin' a blizzard.
Bernie: I work hard all day. I deserve to be comfortable when I
get home.
Pastor: Okay, I see your problem.
Ethyl: It's that truck isn't it Pastor. I told him it was.
Bernie: Pastor knows it ain't my truck. He understands guy
things. It's your spending down at the mall.
Pastor: Well actually, those are only symptoms. What you need to
do is pray for wisdom.
Bernie: How come you think we need to pray fer that?
Pastor: Have you ever asked God to give you wisdom?
Bernie: No. I can't say that I have.
Pastor: That's a sure sign that you need to ask. People who seek
Biblical wisdom want it to guide their lives and they ask in obedience
to God's instructions in the book of James.
Ethyl: Don't surprise me none that Bernie ain't got none. He
ain't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed.
Pastor: Wisdom isn't necessarily about knowledge. Look, I can
tell you how to cut your expenses, but it won't help. Your main
problem is that you don't understand how all of the components of your
lifestyle interrelate and work against your finances and your
marriage. For instance, you eat out a lot and that's far more
expensive than eating at home. I'm guessing you eat mostly greasy,
fatty foods and that leads to health problems, which is why Ethyl
smokes and is the most likely cause for Bernie's high blood
pressure. So, now you buy cigarettes and medicine which is why both of
you have dental problems. With wisdom, you will see how your lifestyle
is destroying your health, your finances, and your marriage.
Bernie: I don't understand.
Ethyl: That's your problem.
Bernie: Like you have room to talk.
Pastor: Look, here's what you need to do. First, ask God for
wisdom. He promises that He will give it if we ask. While you are
doing that, read one chapter of Proverbs every day. There are 31
chapters, so you can complete the book in a month, then do it again
next month.
Bernie: That's all there is!
Pastor: That's a start. Now, if you'll come with me, I'll take
you to the resource center and give you some material on budget and
reducing debt.

Grandpa's Commitment to Christ - Christian Skit
CAST: Grandpa, Child 1, Child 2, Child 3
SETTING: Living Room
PROPS: 1 chair
Grandpa sits in the chair. 3 children sit near him on the
floor.
Child 1: Grandpa, tell me a story about when you fought in the
war.
Grandpa: It was tough. The jungle was hot and damp. The food was
cold. Bullets would whiz by, rat-a-tat-tat - rat-a-tat-tat. Many times
I'd stay up all night long with no sleep. It was like working 24 hours
a day, 7 days a week. But it was worth it, so that you kids would grow
up to be free.
Child 2: Grandpa, tell me a story about your job.
Grandpa: I started at the bottom, but I worked hard - 10 to 12
hours everyday. And I went to school on the weekends. Eventually, I
climbed the corporate ladder and became a vice-president. Then after a
slick business deal, I started my own company. I probably worked 80
hours a week, but it was worth it so that you kids can have spending
money.
Child 3: Grandpa, tell me a story about how you served Jesus.
Grandpa: Well, you know, I went to church when I could.
Child 1: Grandpa, were you ever a missionary?
Grandpa: No.
Child 2: Did you give money to missions?
Grandpa: No.
Child 3: Did you tell people about Jesus?
Grandpa: Well, I .. I ... I just never got around to it.
Child 1: Did you teach Sunday School?
Grandpa: I just didn't have time to teach. I was busy with the
job and school, and I needed time to rest. Sundays were the only time
I had to spend with your Grandma.
Child 2: Did you visit sick people?
Grandpa: No.
Child 3: Grandpa, what did you do for Jesus?
Grandpa: (Looks frustrated) You kids ask too many
questions. Let's go to the kitchen and get some ice cream.
Tax Time Christian Skit
CAST: Husband, Wife
PROPS: Table, 2 chairs, Income tax forms and documents,
calculator, pencil
Husband shuffles papers, presses keys on calculator and
writes notes as Wife enters.
Wife: What are you doing Honey?
Husband: (grumpy) Taxes. It's named right. The government
taxes my money, my time, and my patience. (Wads up a piece of paper
and throws it down.)
Wife: (Sits and grabs a tax form.) What's this one?
Husband: Schedule A.
Wife: Schedule A. I see. Ummm. So ... what is it?
Husband: Oh , sorry. It's our itemized deductions. Things we can
write off, like our home mortgage.
Wife: Oh! (glances at form) It says charitable
contributions. Isn't that like what we gave to the church?
Husband: Well, it would be, but we have to have receipts from
the church.
Wife: Don't they provide them?
Husband: Yeah they do, but I gave cash anonymously as the
offering plate passed.
Wife: Gee Honey, we made $52,000 last year. Let's see (grabs
calculator and presses keys as she mumbles) 52,000 divided by 10
percent for the tithe divided by 52 weeks. (surprised) You put
$100 a week in cash in the offering plate?
Husband: Uhhhmm. Not quite.
Wife: Not quite? (presses keys on calculator as she speaks) Gee,
I thought I did it right.
Husband: There's nothing wrong with your math, we just didn't
quite give that much.
Wife: Really? How much did we give?
Husband: A dollar a week.
Wife: A dollar a week! How did you come up with that?
Husband: Hey take it easy. You don't know how hard it was
ensuring I had a dollar bill every Sunday. One time I only had a five,
so I had to wait until the next week to give.
Wife: Honey! We should be giving more than a dollar! The Bible
teaches tithing.
Husband: Hey, we just can't do it. Look at all of these bills we
had last year. I don't know how we would have paid them if I had given
$100 a week.
Wife: The Bible says God will provide for us. It even says God
will open the windows of heaven, and pour us out a blessing, that
there shall not be room enough to receive it.
Husband: We had plenty of room to receive it last year, that's
what all these bills tell me. Besides, that's an Old Testament verse
you're using.
Wife: It maybe an Old Testament verse, but that doesn't mean
it's not true. How many times have we heard people talk about the
times in their lives when they gave to the Lord even when they didn't
have enough money to cover their bills, but God always provided.
Husband: Yeah, I know. Give, and it shall be given unto you;
good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over,
shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete
withal it shall be measured to you again. But all it sounds like to me
is they had a lot of stress.
Wife: And what do you have right now?
Husband: This is different. I have to provide for our family -
and I'm doing it the best way I know how.
Wife: But that's the problem. You're doing it the best way
you know how. No offense, Dear, but God knows a whole lot better
how to take care of us than we do ourselves. I'd rather have a little
stress wondering how God will meet our needs while we tithe, than the
stress I'm feeling now wondering what misery awaits us because we are
disobedient.
Husband: You think God is going to punish us?
Wife: I think He will withhold His blessings and allow financial
problems to come our way rather than block them.
Husband: I don't know ... $5,000 goes a long way.
Wife: It's nothing compared to what God has done before and will
do. I'm willing to give up some of our entertainment to be obedient to
God. But you know; I'm confident we won't be giving anything up that
we really need. Besides, God says to prove Him. Others have depended
upon God and He never failed them. He'll take care of us too.
Husband: (big sigh) Okay. We'll do it this year.
Nervous Captain 1 - Christian Skits Collection
Object Lesson: Christians should always carry a tract as you can
never tell when you will have the opportunity to share the gospel of
Christ or invite someone to church.
CAST: Shoulders; Bob
SETTING: Lounge
PROPS: 1 chair, table, tract
(This first act is based loosely from material in a Dean Marin -
Foster Brooks' skit.)
Bob is seated at the table.
Shoulders: (Walking up - can be inebriated) Excuse me,
but have you ever been in Bermuda?
Bob: No. I've never been in Bermuda.
Shoulders: Neither have I. It must have been a couple of other
guys. Say, is it all right if I join you? I just stopped in to have a
little drink to settle my nerves before I go to work.
Bob: What kind of work do you do?
Shoulders: I'm a Cruise ship Captain.
Bob: How did you get to be the captain of a Cruise ship?
Shoulders: A lot of hard work. I started off as a bus
driver. They used to call me "Shoulders."
Bob: Because you have broad shoulders?
Shoulders: No, because I always drove on the shoulders. But I
quit. Too many drunks on the road!
Bob: What kind of ship do you have?
Shoulders: Oh, one of those big metal things with whatchacallits
sticking out of the top with smoke billowing out.
Bob: Smoke stacks?
Shoulders: Oh! You're ship's captain too?
Bob: No. Did you ever have any close calls at sea?
Shoulders: Oh yes. Especially since they moved the men's room to
a lower deck.
Bob: I was on a cruise in the Caribbean a couple of weeks ago
and the ship lost a rudder.
Shoulders: Oh, don't worry. It'll turn up. (pause) You
know. There's a lot of pressure being a captain ... sailing way out
there, bouncing across the top of those watery things.
Bob: Waves?
Shoulders: You sure you're not a captain? (pause) You
know ... it's quite a sobering thought to realize there are hundreds of
people on my ship are all depending on me. And too that I happen to
hold their lives right here in the palm of my hand.
Bob: Actually, all of their lives are held in the palm of God's
hand. The Bible says that a sparrow doesn't fall to the ground unless
God knows about it. So, there's no need to worry once you understand
that God cares and He's in control.
Shoulders: Really?
Bob: (Takes a tract out of his billfold.) Here read this
tract from our church. I always carry one with me. When you get back
to Tampa, come by and visit us. The times are listed.
Shoulders: Thank you. I think I will. You know, I've got to get
to the terminal because we're sailing to the Bahamas (looks at
watch and pauses) without me.
Nervous Captain 2 - Christian Skits Collection
Object Lesson: Never talk badly about your church. You may be
talking to a lost person who needs Christ. Your negative testimony may
end up leading them to hell instead of to the saving knowledge of
Christ.
CAST: Shoulders; Bob, Sue
SETTING: Church
PROPS: 5 chairs, tract, sunglasses
Sue is seated in 2nd chair from
right.
Shoulders: (Walking up) Excuse me. Would it be okay if I
sit here?
Sue: Please feel free. I've never seen you at our church before.
Shoulders: (Sits in 1st chair from
right.) This is my first time in church. I met a guy. I think we
were in Bermuda and he gave me this piece of paper. (Shows Sue the
tract.)
Sue: Oh, that's one of our church tracts. Are you from here?
Shoulders: Actually, I'm a Cruise ship Captain. So, I'm kind of
from everywhere. I used to be a bus driver. They call me "Shoulders."
(Bob walks up.)
Shoulders: That's the guy there.
Bob: Hey, aren't you the Cruise ship Captain I met?
Shoulders. Yep. That's me.
Bob: I hope your nerves are settled.
Shoulders: Oh, I'm just fine.
Bob: Well great. I'm glad you could make it. (excited)
Hey Sue, we had an 8-year-old boy saved in my Sunday School class this
morning.
Sue: That's wonderful Bob! (Bob sits in 1st
chair from left.)
Shoulders: Is he a ship's captain too?
Sue: Bob? No way! Did he tell you that?
Shoulders: No. It's just that he knows a lot about
ships. Say. Is the bathroom close by?
Sue: Yes, would you like me to show you where it is?
Shoulders: No. It's just that I've had a few close calls on the
ship ever since they moved the men's room to the lower decks. (Pause) What
did he mean by "a boy was saved?" Is your friend a lifeguard here?
Sue: I've never thought of calling it that, but I guess you
could. What Bob meant is that a little boy accepted Jesus as his
Savior. Bob gets really excited about that.
Shoulders: Really?
Sue: Oh yeah. We had a missionary here last week. He showed some
slides of his work and Bob teared up like he was slicing an onion.
Shoulders: You don't say! A good beer commercial makes me
cry. Do you teach Sunday School?
Sue: No. I sing and sometimes play the piano. Everybody loves to
hear me sing.
Shoulders: Are you going to sing today?
Sue: No. Someone else is, but I don't know why. I can't stand it
when she sings. Off key, off timing. If you listen real close, you'll
hear the dogs howling.
Shoulders: That bad, huh?
Sue: Yeah. That's why I'm leaving this church. The music here is
just as bad as the last church I attended.
Shoulders: You've been to more than one?
Sue: Oh sure. It's hard to find a really good church. They all
seem perfect at first. And then right after I join, something always
happens to mess it up. Take the last church. I played the organ for
them. But the music director always complained because I was late for
service. I mean; it wasn't my fault. It takes time to get the kids
dressed and get my make-up on. Anyway, he wanted the key that I locked
the organ with. But I wouldn't give it to him because kids might play
on it and change my settings. You wouldn't want kids playing on your
bridge would you?
Shoulders: No.
Sue: So one morning, I got to the church and the music director
had broken the lock and someone else was playing the organ. I was so
humiliated. I never did go back there again. Then this morning, I
found out they replaced my song with this other lady. That does it for
me. Take my advice. Find yourself another church.
Shoulders: But what about today?
Sue: Just do like me ... wear sunglasses and take a nap. No one
will ever know. (Puts on sunglasses.)
Shoulders: Say, can you show me where the bathroom is?
Sue: Sure.

CAST: Shoulders; Bob, Sue, Reporter
SETTING: Street Corner
PROPS: Microphone
Reporter approaches Shoulders with Microphone as Shoulders
walks toward him/her.
Reporter: Hi! I'm with Action News and we're doing a report on
why people go to church. May I ask you a few questions?
Shoulders: Sure.
Reporter: What do you do for a living?
Shoulders: I'm a Cruise ship Captain.
Reporter: Do you go to church?
Shoulders: Lately I have.
Reporter: Why do you go? Is it to help reassure you as you sail
on stormy seas?
Shoulders: Actually, it's because they give free snacks and
there are a lot of good-looking women there. Women really go for
Cruise ship staff.
Reporter: I see. So, how would you characterize a successful
service?
Shoulders: One that ends on time. I hate it when the Pastor and
the invitation drags on and on. I can't beat the Sunday crowd to the
restaurant.
Reporter: Thank you for your time.
Shoulders leaves. Reporter approaches Sue with Microphone as
Sue walks toward him/her.
Reporter: Hi! I'm with Action News and we're doing a report on
why people go to church. May I ask you a few questions?
Sue: Yeah. This will be fun!
Reporter: Do you go to church?
Sue: Every Sunday!
Reporter: Why do you go?
Sue: I like the activities. I get to sing, play sports, and
about once a month we'll do something fun in Sunday School; like go to
a restaurant or canoeing.
Reporter: I can see why you're excited. So, how would you
characterize a successful service?
Sue: Oh! One where everybody is happy. Oh yeah, and one when
everybody tells me how good of a job I did singing or playing a piano
solo.
Reporter: Thank you for your time.
Sue leaves. Reporter approaches Bob with Microphone as Bob
walks toward him/her.
Reporter: Hi! I'm with Action News and we're doing a report on
why people go to church. May I ask you a few questions?
Bob: Certainly!
Reporter: Do you go to church?
Bob: Yes.
Reporter: Why do you go?
Bob: It's an opportunity to worship the God of heaven and His
Son, Jesus Christ who died for my sins. And because I've asked Him to
save me, my sins are all forgiven and I will go to heaven when I
die. Even if the Bible didn't say, "forsake not the assembling of
yourselves," I'd still go to express my love for Christ.
Reporter: That's fascinating! So, how would you characterize a
successful service?
Bob: I think of a good service as one in which attendance was
good, the music was performed well, the Pastor had a good message, and
someone made a decision. But, I consider a great service to be one in
which I can feel the Lord's presence, regardless of anything else.
Reporter: Why is that?
Bob: Jesus said the Father seeks those to worship Him in spirit
and in truth. When I sense His presence, I feel we are doing
that. After all, worship is all about Him, not me.
Reporter: It sounds like you're one of those straight-laced,
serious types?
Bob: If that means boring, not all. I enjoy our activities and
have some for my 8 year-old boys Sunday School class. I just ensure
the focus is on the Lord. And I have leaned how to enjoy God and His
blessings in my life. You know, I have more fun now as a Christian
than I did before I was saved.
Reporter: Thank you for your time. (Bob walks off.)
That's our report for today ladies and gentlemen and you heard it
first on Action News!

lost their lives in this monstrous storm that destroyed most of the
downtown and left thousands homeless. The names of the 3 fatalities
are being withheld pending notification of next of kin.
Courtroom: Bob stands as the defendant. Jesus is next to him

the Father as he enters and sits in the chair.
Bailiff: All rise for the eternal Judge, God the Father. (Waits

Savior when you were 18 years old. Case dismissed.
Bailiff: All rise.
God the Father, the Bailiff, and Satan exit.
Jesus: Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom
prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an
hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I
was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was
sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Bob: Lord, when did I see you hungry, and fed you? or thirsty,
and gave you a drink? When did I see you a stranger, and took you in?
or naked, and clothed you? Or when did I see you sick, or in prison,
and came unto you?
Jesus: Verily I say unto you, inasmuch as ye have done it unto
one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. I
assure you that rewards for the cups of cold water you gave in the
name of a disciple have not been lost. The crown of life and the crown
of righteousness are yours. I will show you to your mansion on the
streets of gold, which has been prepared for you. Because you obeyed
my word, you have laid up for yourself great treasure here in
heaven. Because you supported missions, missionaries received the
things which were sent from you, an odor of a sweet smell, a sacrifice
acceptable, well pleasing to God. Therefore much fruit is abounded to
your account. Many are in heaven today and many will enter because of
your witness.

Jesus: Come, I will show you to your mansion on the streets of
gold, which has been prepared for you.
Sue: I remember the Bible said something about rewards.
Jesus: The Bible said let every man take heed how he buildeth
thereupon. For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid,
which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold,
silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man's work shall be
made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be
revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort
it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall
receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer
loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. Your works
were found to be wood, hay, and stubble. They all burned up.
Sue: But I sang in the choir! I attended church. I went to the
Sunday School fellowships. I went on a mission's trip. I gave money
and prayed when called upon. I even fasted once!
Jesus: You left your first love. To what purpose was the
multitude of your sacrifices unto me? When you came to appear before
me, who required this at your hand? I wanted no more of your vain
oblations, the calling of assemblies; it was iniquity, even the solemn
meetings. Your appointed feasts my soul hated: they were a trouble
unto me; I was weary to bear them. For whose benefit did you do these
things?
You did your alms before men, to be seen of them: You announced
your giving as the hypocrites do that they may have glory of men.
Verily I say unto you, You had your reward.
And when thou prayed, thou did as the hypocrites: for you loved
to pray standing in your Sunday School class, that you may be seen of
men. Verily I say unto you, You had your reward. You even used vain
repetitions, as the heathen do: thinking that you would be heard for
your much speaking.
Moreover when you fasted, you played as the hypocrites with a
sad countenance: for you disfigured your face that you appeared unto
men to fast. Verily I say unto you, You had your reward.
Was not the fast that I have chosen to loose the bands of
wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go
free, and that ye break every yoke? Was it not to deal your bread to
the hungry, and that you bring the poor that are cast out to your
house? When thou saw the naked, that you cover him? I wanted you to
learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the
fatherless, plead for the widow.
I wanted you to worship the Father in spirit and in truth, but
you were more concerned with the cares of the present world.

lives after the massive, F5 tornado that ripped through our

occupation of one was a Cruise ship Captain, a Mr. Evans who friends
affectionately called "Shoulders." Families and friends say they will

Jesus: No.
Satan: The prosecution rests.

the Father the Book of Life. God the Father pages through). Let's
see, under Evans. You're name is not written in the book of life,
Shoulders: (panicked) What do you mean, I'm not
listed? There must be a mistake!
God the Father: No mistake. Your name is not in the Book of
Life.
Shoulders: That can't be! Don't you know about all the good
things I've done?
God the Father: Bring me the other book. (Bailiff hands God
the Father the Book of Life. God the Father pages through). I know
what you have done. It is all recorded here.
Shoulders: Then you should see that I donated 10 dollars to
cancer research. And I was head of the sailor's union and made sure we
were treated well.
God the Father: That's in the book, but it doesn't make it.
Shoulders: Oh I get it. You probably want something
religious. Well, I went to church! I put a dollar in the offering
plate every Sunday that I went.
Jesus: That still doesn't matter.
Shoulders: What did you want me to do? I couldn't put a fish
sticker on my cruise ship!
Jesus: All you had to do was believe. I did all of the work for
you, if only you would have accepted it.
Shoulders: Come on, you act like I killed someone or robbed a
bank. Sure, keep those guys out of heaven, but this is me, Shoulders
Evans. Cruise ship Captain! I was a good man and a law abiding
citizen.
God the Father: According to the book with your works, you stole
pencils and pens from your boss.
Shoulders: Yeah, but that makes ...
God the Father: A thief and a sinner. You had affairs with 4
married women and you wanted to with other wives, which made you an
adulterer. You lied on your application to flight school about your
DUIs. You hated your boss so much that you hoped he would die. You
wanted your next-door neighbor's luxury car and swimming pool so badly
you would lie awake at night thinking about how to get your own. You
misused my name in your everyday language and crude jokes. You thought
more of sports than of my kingdom.

Patch: Then you'd better have Parrot Feet, because I'm going to

Hans: No, I said "I" like in me, not Aye like in yes. Besides,
if you throw me into a tree, I won't forgive you.
Captain Goatee: Look lads. What Zacchaeus needed in the tree was
forgiveness. That's why Jesus called Zacchaeus out of the sycamore
tree, to show that God's love is forgiving.

Hans: Yeah, and maybe if. (pause with look of confusion) I
can't think of anything Patch.
Patch: I can. If we would hurry this wouldn't take forever to
get to the treasure.
Hans: Yeah. My feet hurt and I think I'm going to have to quit.
Captain Goatee: Now lads. Be patient. It has been a long walk,
but it should help remind you that no matter how far you have to go,
God's love will never end. He will always be with you. That's what the
