| | SCRIPT PREVIEW | | | Synopsis | | A reading on the meaning of Christmas. Four readers (two couples) are all that is required to present this classic story by one of the world's most celebrated Christian writers, Henry Van Dyke. In the Country Beyond the Stars, there was discord among the angels about how peace and charity might be given to all on Earth—about how the helpless might be saved from their oppressors. Archangel Michael would bring divine judgment with his sword. Uriel cautioned that power corrupts—only knowledge could banish evil. There was indecision until Raphael reasoned that there could be no remedy save love. But how might men be made like God? There was no answer until the Christmas Angel that dwelt in the heart of a pure virgin said, "The Son of God shall become man. Though he will suffer at the hands of the cruel and wicked, his pain and meekness will draw all to him and to the peace of God." | | | Related Titles: | | A Readers Theatre variety presentation for Christmas A dramatic adaptation of the poem "How the Great Guest Came" by Edwin Markham An Advent comedy on holiday stress A Collection of Four Monologues |
