The Centerpiece

Bys: Lagerquist, Donna, Armentrout, Rod, Berryman, Jeff

This comic, fun sketch focuses on the idea of people refusing to admit the reality of Christ, even though they are confronted with much evidence. The evidence, in this case, is a huge cross that has come through the roof and crashed through the dining room table, It is Easter Sunday, a family is having dinner, but refuses to even acknowledge the obvious. A friend from dad's work arrives for dinner and can't believe what he sees, and cannot fathom why nobody speaks of it. When he finally mentions the word "cross," he is rebuked by the family. The friend discovers this has happened before-frequently at Easter and Christmas. But the family has learned if they don't mention the cross, it will disappear. Until next time. Keywords: Easter, Denial, Not dealing with reality, Evidence for Christianity, Reasons people don't believe, Fear. Casting: 3 females, 2 males, 2 children
