The Evangelist screenplay excerpt

I mentioned a couple posts back that Sean and I would be shooting a short film called The Evangelist in May, I've been working on polishing up the screenplay for the past week or so. Here's part of a longer monologue from the script, written by Sean and myself:

People have been searching for your

mouth. People in church every

Sunday. We have taken memberships

and dinners, bake sales. We have

forgotten why we are there. We

confine the church to the church.

You have come to tell us that you

are coming back into our homes.

Back to our families. We serve you

in our jobs, our marriages, through

our children. Being home schooled,

being the light, preaching your

word. Whatever your plan for us, it

has nothing to do with the Sunday

address, the words of the corrupt

and venal priests spitting impotent

venom on the dead-eyed.
