WHAT
A short, dialogue-driven skit about two teens sent to deliver a message to their church drama team—but one teen can only see the bad news happening in the world, while the other insists that they must carry the good news of God’s hope. A third optional character helps clarify the difference between the world’s negativity and the hope found in Scripture.
THEME
Even when the world feels heavy, God’s message is always good news.
Hope > fear.
Truth > discouragement.
Faith > negativity.
