Win the Race - True Worship

Winning the race with God’s grace by finding purpose in life.

Laps the Racer is at it again—this time, he's all in on red chipmunk racing (whatever that is). But when his friends try to explain what it takes to truly succeed in racing—strength, mind, and heart—Laps is more focused on ice cream toppings and camel racing than the bigger picture. Through humor and lighthearted chaos, the team helps Laps (and the audience!) discover that true worship means giving God your all—heart, soul, mind, and strength.

This high-energy, laugh-filled skit is perfect for VBS, children’s camp, or any setting that needs an unforgettable lesson on what it means to worship God with your whole life. 🚗💨 Get ready for fun, faith, and a whole lot of racing wisdom!

This is Segment #2 of 5 part drama. 

NOTE: All segments can be ordered as standalone scripts or as a complete series.

Winning the Race is designed for VBS or children's camp but works well in any setting. This engaging skit follows five uniquely entertaining race car drivers as they navigate the road to discovering God’s purpose for their lives. Using the high-energy theme of car racing—along with a healthy dose of family-friendly humor (guaranteed to keep both kids and leaders laughing!)—each segment explores a different aspect of finding purpose in life.

Sample of THIS "TRUE WORSHIP" SEGMENT #2 script:

(Andi, Randy, Ted, Wendy, and Trudy come on stage, talking.)

Andi: So this fella says, “Surely they can build a car that will stand up to that kinda use.”

Randy: Some folks just don’t seem to realize an automobile is a finely tuned instrument—needs to be respected, looked after.

Ted: For a fact! Whether you are an amateur driver or a pro, look after your vehicle, people!

Wendy: Got two hundred thousand clicks on my car, yet it's in like showroom condition!

Trudy: Sure, Wendy, but you like baby that car of yours.

Wendy: Why not? After all, my car is my baby!

(Laps comes strolling on stage, strumming guitar and singing. Other actors watch, only mildly interested.)

Laps (sings):
Oh they call me a racer
I bin racin' long time
For sure I'm a legend
Only in my own mind.

Randy: Run for cover, it's… him (her)!

Laps: Hey, just the guys I was looking for!

Andi: Hey Laps, what's up?

Laps: My friend, Hector Headstrong, introduced me to this awesome new game and—

Ted: You have a friend whose name is Hector Headstrong? That’s amazing!

Wendy: I find it even more amazing that you have a friend.

Laps: Anyways, my friend, Hector Headstrong, introduced me to red chipmunk racing.

Trudy: This Hector dude races chipmunks?

Laps: Sure does! And not just chipmunks—red chipmunks! Hector races as much as 32 days a month, and I plan to do the same.

Andi: That could be a tough thing to do, seein’ as on the best of months there’s only like 31 days… but then, who’s counting?

Laps: So, anyways, I am gonna sign up to be a chipmunk racer!
