MY BURDEN HAS BEEN LIFTED
This script can be performed easily by two actors (with one playing seven parts), or by a cast of eight. In this sketch we meet Joe, a new Christian.

This humorous sketch gets the audience laughing while making an important point.

DOWN WITH THE PHAT ICE
Everyone knows a Mr. Kinks-one of those youth leaders or teachers who thinks he's in touch with the language and culture of the youth, but who is so far out of touch it's almost humorous. In this sketch, Mr. Kinks really thinks he's communicating with Cindy, but Cindy soon realizes she's not getting through to Mr. Kinks at all. This script works well with a combined audience of youth and adults as a lighthearted way for the adults to poke fun at themselves for failed attempts to connect with youth. It can also be used to open a more serious discussion on the difficulties of inter-generational communication.

This hilarious script is a good way to open a discussion on how the names we call each other — even in jest — can affect our attitudes and behavior.

WRECK ROOM
Jack has decided to surprise his wife, Renee, by building a rec room onto their house. But this latest purchase is the last straw for Renee, who is tired of the trappings of their yuppie lifestyle and yearns for days gone by when the pair had committed to living a radical life of faith and trusting in God.
