Title: A Conversation with God
Summary: This is an evangelistic sketch. The premise is that the person is interested in Jesus and Christianity, and has been thinking about such things, but is unwilling, or not ready, to make a commitment or take the next step. It's about that stage, just before someone becomes a Christian, when they know that God is calling them, or drawing them to himself, but are hesitating. Keywords : evangelism; evangelistic.

Summary: In this evangelistic drama, our three not-so-bright heroes have a meandering conversation around the thought “Jesus was a good person, wasn’t he?” They look briefly at where we get our ideas about Jesus from – the Bible, TV, thin air? - and whether those sources are reliable. Turns out, the Bible is a more reliable historical document than many other histories we accept as truth. And you can’t say “Jesus was a good person” and leave it there, it doesn’t add up. Because Jesus himself said he is the son of God...
