are walking down the sidewalk carrying their Bibles, as they come
upon another friend, Frank, sitting on his front steps) |
| |
|
| Frank |
Hi guys, what are you up to? |
| |
|
| Chris |
We're on our way to church and Sunday school.
|
| |
|
| Frank |
I believe in Jesus and I go to church sometimes, but Sunday school
takes up too much of my valuable time. |
| |
|
| Tim |
So what are you up to Frank? |
| |
|
| Frank |
I'm checking out my baseball cards. This is my favorite player,
Johnny Lighting. His batting average is 290. He bats and throws right
handed, and was born March 11, 1967 in Bloomington Indiana. He loves cheese
pizza and hamburgers. You know, I use his batting style when I
play little league baseball. |
| |
|
| Chris |
Frank, you say you believe in Jesus. Do you know His stats? |
| |
|
| Frank |
What do you mean? |
| |
|
| Tim |
You know, where He was born, who were His disciples, name some
of His miracles, what type of food He ate, and how He died. |
| |
|
| Frank |
Ahhh, I think one of His disciples was named Noah. |
| |
|
| Chris |
Wrong answer, not even close. When we stand before God what do
you think will matter the most, knowing baseball stats and maybe
being a good ball player or knowing Jesus and sharing the Good News
with others? |
| |
|
| Tim |
One day your cards will probably be sold in a garage sale for
a few dollars. If you follow Jesus, you could be storing up treasure
in Heaven. Now that's the way to spent your valuable time! |
| |
|
| Frank |
Gee, I never thought of it that way... Care if I join you in Sunday
School? |
| |
|
| Chris & Tim |
Good choice, let's go! |
| |
|
| (Chris, Frank and Tim continue
on their way to Sunday school when they see their friend Amy listening
to music on her front steps) |
| |
|
| Amy |
Hi guys, what are you up to? |
| |
|
| Frank |
We're on our way to church and Sunday school. |
| |
|
| Amy |
I believe in Jesus and I go to church sometimes, but Sunday school
takes up too much of my valuable time. I'd rather listen to this
new band called... |
| |
|
| Chris & Tim |
(Laughing) Here we go again.... |
