Theme: Rediscovering Love Through God’s Grace
Time: 8 minutes
Format: PDF Download
Characters:
- Tom: A weary husband.
- Lydia: His wife of 20 years.
Setting: Kitchen table at night.
Summary:
Tom and Lydia, an older married couple, sit down after another argument. They’ve had years of distance and no contact about their feelings. Tom jokes that their marriage has “more reruns than a home shopping network.” Lydia, hurt but hopeful, wonders if there’s any better way to reconnect.
Through honest conversation—filled with humor, regret, and Scripture—they begin to rediscover what it means to be a shining example of God’s grace. Lydia recalls the time of Jesus, when forgiveness was the foundation of love.
Tom admits his recent destructive behavior—short temper, exhaustion, and self-degrading comments—and Lydia responds not with anger but compassion. The Holy Spirit moves in their dialogue as they pray together for a fresh start.
The skit ends with them holding hands, whispering, “Maybe love is hard work—but with God’s help, it’s holy work.”
Message: God restores broken relationships through humility and grace.
Discussion Questions:
- How can couples keep their faith central in marriage?
- What does true forgiveness look like in daily life?
