Two for the Chancel

Two for the Chancel includes two Reader's Theater light dramas to be performed in the church chancel. The theme of The Easy Button is How freedom to choose came into the world and what it means for us, and of Four Drumsticks, Respecting God's Creation while Honoring Mind and Community.

In The Easy Button, the serpent tempts Eve to eat the forbidden fruit and to share it with Adam. Their eyes are opened, and Eve plans some improvements to the Garden. The serpent brings an Easy Button to the couple, and they fight over it. But in order to cover themselves before God arrives, they also learn to divide the work, though they each want to possess the Easy Button.

In Four Drumsticks, at dinner time, Alice, 12, brings up what she's learning in science class as the family tries to meet everyone's demand for their favorite part of the chicken. The three children and the father each want a drumstick. There are, of course, only two.
