| Some of My Puppetry Background |
| Q: Why do you write puppet scripts? What motivates you? |
| My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He motivates me greatly. I also write scripts so I can help kids ages 6-12. It is a good way to teach Christian truths to help them overcome current and future problems. |
| Q: Tell us about your church or puppet organisation. |
| Our ministries name is This ol House Junior Church Ministry.I like using puppets to teach because these puppets represent a family, it is easier to apply God's truths. |
| Q: How did you get started in puppets and what attracted you to this area? |
| We were a part of the junior ministry at a previous church and saw first hand the results of how God would reach those children. |
| Q: Where does your inspiration come from to write puppet scripts? |
The Lord Jesus Christ, He creates all things. Just like a sermon, He will give me a thought or after I read something I'll get a idea, this is how the scripts come to be.
|
| Q: What advice would you give to someone just starting out in puppetry? |
| Know the Lord as your personal Savior and let the Holy Spirit lead you in all walks of your life. Also get involved with a church where puppets are this will help educate you. |
| Q: Who are your favourite puppet characters and what do you like about them? |
| Although our main characters are a mother and father and two siblings, we also introduce 15 other puppets from time to time. And my favorite would be Humphrey the camel. |
| Q: What are the most important qualities in great puppet scripts? |
| Using biblical teaching to apply these truths to the childrens life. |
| Q: What would you do if you were a puppet? |
| In some ways we are like a puppet in that we are completely used by God to perform what His perfect plans for our life is. He is the Hand. |
