OTHER SKETCHES FOR CHURCH AUDIENCES
(all scripts available in 50 Seasonal Sketches)
SALTY TOWERS (Cana branch) - a serious wine shortage at a full-scale Jewish wedding is averted when the wine
waiter makes a new friend. Shows the chaotic effect of one of Jesus' miracles.
FULL TREATMENT - uses some of the arguments against supernatural healing by God and applies them to a routine visit
to a doctor's surgery. Aims to show how we often have unquestioning faith in doctors, yet are sometimes very sceptical of more spiritual ways of treating illnesses.
LIVING WATER - Two beautiful
flowers who have plenty of water deny a shrivelled-up plant access to the water supply, which causes it to die. Compares God's word to the water of life, which we sometimes don't tell others about.
MARRIAGE GUIDANCE COUNSELLOR - what would happen in a marriage if a couple communicated as infrequently as we sometimes do with God? Aims to show what a strange relationship some of us have with God.
REAL SACRIFICE - Compares the agonies that Abraham went through when he was asked to sacrifice his own son with our supposed traumas when we are asked to make minor sacrifices of our own. Aims to
show how little faith we sometimes have in a God who we claim does act.
