1 Timothy 1:5
A WAY WITH PEOPLE

It's not often we're forced to think seriously about our selfishness and the effect it has on our relationships. But every once in a while, when our failures are too large to deny, we come face to face with the fact that we care more about ourselves than those around us. When we allow ourselves to operate on autopilot, we tend to use people instead of love them as Christ commanded. This sketch, in true mime style, exaggerates this tendency to mammoth proportions. But the message comes through loud and clear: don't use people for your own benefit or you'll face the consequences.

1 Timothy 2:15;4:2
THE BOARD

In this techno-electronic-information age, the church sometimes forgets what it's all about. We can get caught up in all the bells and whistles of the new media or try to attract an audience, which is increasingly looking around for the best "show." We have good intentions, and we know what our mission is, but it is easy to forget. This sketch exaggerates in a humorous way the manner in which the church sometimes loses its focus.

1 Timothy 4
TOUCHED  BY AN ALIEN
We live in an age where many people are spiritual seekers, but often they are not looking toward the church for answers. As a consequence of people's eagerness to believe, all sorts of odd things are being accepted, everything from mind reading to ESP to crystals to UFOs. This sketch provides an opportunity to think about where the truth really lies.

1 Timothy 4:4
AT THE DANCE
At the school dance, we meet Isabella, who is quiet and reserved. She has self-esteem problems and covers them by being quiet, but some kids think she's a snob. We also meet Ellen, who is loud and boisterous. She has self-esteem problems, too, but overcompensates by being loud. This sometimes painful, sometimes amusing exploration of the nature of self-esteem is a great discussion-starter for both teens and adults.

AN EXERCISE IN FUTILITY
In a world where so much in life is beyond our control, is the trend toward physical fitness an attempt to impose some limits over what we can control? We may not be able to slow down the pace of the world, but we can keep our waistlines from expanding. What are the spiritual dimensions that the attempts to stay physically vital highlight? In this sketch, two friends discuss the frustrations of attempting to keep their bodies in good shape and consider whether it is all worthwhile.
