It's very easy to let any Bible story be a story only. But the truth of every Bible story is that they involved people - people that made good choices, bad choices, personal choices, eternal choices. People - not just characters in a story.
A project I've been very excited (and slightly nervous) about is writing a script for Good Friday that takes 5 Bible characters and places them as people who have seen Jesus die, and to present their stories and their perspectives - as people.
Why? Because I think that sometimes it's too easy to dismiss their stories because "I would never do that" or "What were they thinking?" But sometimes only time gives perspective to our actions and we can't know for sure how our character will respond in moments of decision.
This particular script is called "3 Days" and you're welcome to attend if you're in the area.
If you can't make it, here's another skit that gives a taste of those personal stories.
