Psalm 23
A MOTHER'S SON
As these three intertwined monologues unfold, we realize we are watching three women named Mary who have each lost a son. One is having trouble accepting that her young son is dying. One is mourning the loss of her unborn son, who died when she was 29 weeks pregnant. The third is the mother of Jesus, watching her beloved son die. Through their stories, we feel the pain of losing a child and gain a glimpse of the love the Father has for us that he would sacrifice his only Son to save us.

Psalm 37:4–5
TRUST GOD
Psalm 37:4–5 directs us to trust in God, with the assurance that He will bring whatever it is we are believing Him for to come to pass. While that might sound simple enough, trusting God is not always easy. Our faith is often tested by time, fear, other people's opinions and our own self-doubt. This monologue explores some of the many obstacles that hinder us from completely trusting in God.

A break is written in to make it an open-ended sermon starter, or you can use the complete script as a stand-alone piece.
