There’s nothing like a little holy humor to illustrate your sermons!  Your congregation will applaud the wit and whimsy in these sketches.  Everything from the props (like a spray can of “Grouch-Be-Gone”) to the settings (such as an interrogation room) to the characters (e.g.  the wacky psychiatrist Dr. Fraud) will jump-start your church’s worship routine with a fresh take on Christian concepts.  Everything is geared to our contemporary times with even the Bible stories having a modern twist to the retelling or characterizations.  With their humor, the sketches manage to address some weighty issues in a non-threatening manner.  Three indexes — by Scripture, by theme and by Bible story — help you find just the right scenario on a wide variety of topics.  The 45 skits here all run about five minutes and range in cast size from two to five people with quick and easy costumes and props.
