Risking in Grace

Ann recounts to her son a most amazing visit she has just had with a young woman who was dying after a bone marrow transplant didn't take. What is amazing is that it was her first experience as a Stephan's minister at which she had felt pretty inept. As they said in the training, "If you risk and are available, God's grace fills in the gap."

A very moving true story.

A Saducee Receptionist
$

This piece is based on the smoke screen questions the saducees often asked Jesus to distance themselves from his truth. An insurance company receptionist is getting the scoop on her co-worker's recent blind date. When she finds out it was with a Christian and that her friend finds what he told her about Christ making sense, the receptionist feels compelled to tell her why she should "stay away from this Jesus stuff with a ten foot pole". The piece is both funny and painful, and addresses some real reasons why people today sit on the fence about faith and being fully committed to Christ. There was great response to this piece, when performed in a recent church service. Many people told the minister that they related and it brought out in the open some of their questions.

It needs a sermon or talk following it to fill out the principles.

A waitress, finishing up her all night shift on the night Jesus was arrested, relates her down-to-earth perspectives on the events of Passion week to some of the regulars. The final customer of the night enters, and she recognizes him as one of Jesus' friends, but he denies it and leaves just as the cock crows.

A nice blend of 1st and 20th century elements.

Behind the scenes with Martha flipping out in the kitchen as Mary has left her to do all the work.

A hilarious look at the personality that does too much and needs to learn how to sit at the feet of Jesus.

Theme: Doubting Thomas. Angie has just come home from a healing service at church where their neighbor was healed of severe rheumatoid arthritis. As she relates the events, her skeptical husband dismisses it with some creative rational explanations. When he finally sees his neighbor arrive home and walk freely up the stairs to her house, he says there's some explanation. Angie asks him what it would take for him to believe, he says, "A miracle."

A funny, thoughtful piece on faith.
