The Unopened Present: Christian drama sketch

Geof: It’s a terrible present, it’s like giving me guilt and work as a present, you have it! (panicking, throwing it back)
Michelle: I don’t need it, I’ve already got Jesus
Geof: That explains a lot! Sighs. I don’t know what to do with that (pointing at leaflet). It’s going to be all “you need to change your life, you need to stop doing this, that and the other, you need to be nice to Grandma”, it’s going to be a load of grief. Who wants that?
Michelle: Nobody wants the present you’re describing, but that’s not what Jesus is about. He’s about making peace between you and God, he’s about being free and having hope, not do’s and don’ts. You don’t have to take my word for it, give him a go and see for yourself. He is the best present ever. All you have to do is receive him (offering leaflet back to Geof, Geof reaches for it, freeze both holding it)
