One Down and Two to Go!!

Got the first puppet script finished. It's King Saul talking to David before he goes out to fight Goliath titled "Who's the Shield-bearer" after the famous (infamous?) "Who's on First" skit by Abbott and Costello. It's done and Joshua and David can practice it so they don't laugh (too much) while they perform it a month from now.

The second one will be the actual fight between David and Goliath and the third script will be about David as the king befriending Jonathon's son, Mephibosheth.

My First Post

First!

Oh wait, that's for posting comments isn't it?

The main purpose of this blog is geared towards keeping things up to date for friends and family. It's very bare right now and I have some ideas for the design template but I don't have time for that right now.

I'm in the middle of the beginning of writing puppets scripts for Vacation Bible School at our church, Grace Baptist Church in Delaware, OH. It's hard coming up with something based on a particular theme for three nights to be entertaining and yet does teach a lesson. I have about 4 weeks to go and have half a script written. It's crunch time because I have to have them done in time for my puppeteers to practice.

Last year's VBS theme was Jonah and I ended up with three really good scripts. This year it is about David and the Heart of the King. The idea is to get the children to understand that God cares about what we are on the inside. Are our hearts after God as King David's?

Till next time.
