In the Dark

By Josh Hornbeck

When problems arise in our lives, where do we turn? Do we try to solve the problem on our own? Do we freak out and panic? Or do we turn to God in our times of trouble?

As they finish a remodeling job, two construction workers are faced with their most difficult task yet – setting up two floor lamps. When the lamps don’t turn on, the workers alternate between panic and grim determination as they attempt to turn on the lights.

In the Dark is a funny snapshot of the ways we respond to the troubles of life.
