NEW BELIEVER, A

Script for renewal of family and religious beliefs has a viable niche in storytelling. In this case it is Christian based and centered. The author being a twelve-year-old girl is compelling as her writing is nicely scripted. The script, while occasionally verging on sermon quoting rather the voice of the young girl, has value - a father becomes distant following the concurrent loss of mother and brother. He turns accusingly on God and the beliefs which his daughter holds true. She orchestrates his return to the church and he begins to realize a fuller life - this through communication, her love of her father and her faith. I give this script 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for rages 8 to 18, plus adults. Reviewed by Juror #11.

Mia, a 12 year old girl, who is a very strong Christian. She goes to church 2 times a week, always volunteering, and always helping others. The dad, late 30's early 40s James Smith, was once a church loving child himself, until his mother passed away from cancer when he was 12. Leaving him to live with his new found alcoholic father who also stopped in his belief after his other son Donald, was killed in a car accident. Neither father nor son couldn't understand how a loving God could allow such things to happen to them, and so they fell out of the life as a believer, always searching for answers he could not find on his own....until.
