Mountain Faith

What happens when a joyful road trip turns into a mountain of worry? Mountain Faith© is a short, humorous drama that captures the tension between fear and faith. Two friends set out for a relaxing mountain drive—one filled with wonder, the other with worry over falling rocks and lurking danger.

Perfect for any season, this lighthearted yet meaningful skit reminds us that while caution is wise, fear shouldn't steal our joy. Whether you're traveling literal mountains or facing life's metaphorical ones, Mountain Faith© encourages us to choose faith over fear, trusting that God is with us through every twist and turn.

Sample Script

Actors sitting on chairs, miming driving in a car

Pat: All right! Here we go then, off to the mountains!

Tim:  Yeh, man, this will be great! Do we have everything we need?

Pat: Everything! Here’s our food, I got money out of the bank, we have a big jug of fresh water, flashlights, tent, sleeping bags, here’s my map.

Tim: Map? Let me see that.

Pat: Wow, look at those beautiful mountains! See, way up there?

Tim: All I see is that sign, “Beware Of Falling Rocks”! Yikes, see those rocks up there, just ready to roll down on us!

Pat: “Ready to roll down on us”, what do you mean?

Tim: Look, if there wasn’t a danger of the rocks falling, they wouldn’t have put the sign up! Of course, the rocks are ready to roll down on us!

Pat: Well, I mean, sure there’s a chance of the rocks falling down . .

Tim: See! Even you admit it! The rocks are going to fall on us! We will be killed! Oh, why did we ever come to the mountains?
