The Story Act 3: The Trials of a King

If the walls of your house could speak, what story would they tell? As a minister, I hear a lot of stories. But many of the stories that I hear are of the closing scene. When I sit down in front of people the family is already falling apart, the marriage is already ending, or an affair has already been uncovered. I sit there wondering, "How did this happen?" But I've learned that those telling the story are often just as baffled as I am about how everything fell apart. We never see the small subtle signs that the curtain is about close, we just see the curtain closed, and we wonder...How did we get here?
