That's because RileysDiner - your online destination for relevant church drama - only offers great drama. Our mission is to change lives through the power of storytelling.

Every script has been meticulously written and edited. We take seriously the lesson learned by David in II Samuel 24:24 when he realized that genuine sacrifice carries a cost. To paraphrase, he vowed that he would not offer God something that cost him nothing.

Great scripts cost time. Time to create compelling characters. Time to polish convincing dialogue till it sparkles. Time to think through the right setting.

We invest the time in getting our scripts right for churches and people who will invest the time to perform them right. Great stories speak to people. We pledge to spend our time creating great stories, and we trust you'll spend the time breathing life into these scripts.

You can find moldy-cheese drama anywhere on the Internet. Hey, a lot of it's even free. We won't serve that stuff here.

Bon appétit.
