It was very well received and even the kids in the sanctuary were quiet.  I used a live baby and that came off without a hitch as well. The Lord does indeed bless! I just wanted to let you know that  the writing was superb and through your script, many were drawn into a closer worship time with the Lord this weekend.   I have scheduled us to do Fear Not next week for the second in our Advent series and am looking forward to that one.  Thanks again and keep them coming Howi !    Ron Williams , WV Graphic Artist "Protocol of Praise" - Sergeant Truth prepares the troops for the entrance of the greatest general of all time.

I used the monologue called THE ACT, adapted it slightly and translated it into Afrikaans, my mother tongue. Our congregation consists of a lot of people that come from broken relationships. This piece was used as part of a sermon about morality and was a real blessing in terms of bringing healing amongst this particular audience.   Thanks again for the material - may our heavenly Father use you and continue blessing your work!   Regards in Jesus!

Cast:  M  (However, I think the piece can still be done with a female character about her daughter just as easy.  It doesn’t change the message of the story.  Just let your audience know that you’re doing that.)  Biblical costume Special effects:  The right music would enhance the overall effect Running time:  8-9 minutes (Depending on ebb and flow and music) $7.59 Download Half Formed But Whole Hearted When The Hardest Thing to Do Is the Right Thing to Do Uriah/Monologue.  Uriah, an honorable Israelite soldier became the victim of David's moment of weakness as he sinned with Uriah's wife.  This moving emotional monologue demonstrates the commitment Uriah displayed when faced with the hardest thing to do, yet doing the right thing.  8-9 minutes $7.89 Download We have created a custom Studio Quality Music Trac for this monologue.  It includes an audio backdrop so the audience has a historical understanding of who Uriah was.  Music underscore appears throughout the monologue to enhance a moving atmosphere for the actor to play off of.  The ending is a very thought provoking and emotional experience. $8.00 The Hardest Thing to Do sound track $8.00 This track includes a historical introduction so that your audience can learn who Uriah was before the actor performs the piece. We receive a notification that you have purchased the track.  We then send the track to you via the internet.  You will need to make sure that you can receive the CD through high speed internet Someday, Came Today  $7.50 One of the most powerful sermon set-ups or sermon follow-ups.  This monologue is about the thief at the cross who reached out to Jesus.  We can hypothesize about his past, but what a miraculous day for someone who didn’t deserve it.  Christ’s love is wonderfully shown in this event at Calvary.  Even though the event is historical, Howi brings a modern application through the breaking down of just the one line that Jesus said to the thief.  “Today, you will be with me in Paradise.”  Never will those words have a fuller and more relative meaning then when they come alive through this monologue. $10.00 A DVD of the author blocking out "Someday, Came Today" step by step   The Perfect Lamb   $7.89 Download  Another powerful sermon set-up or follow-up.  We know that Abraham took Isaac to sacrifice on the mountain of Mariah.  God supplied the sacrifice.  What we don’t know is, ‘where did that ram or sheep come from?’  Was it a wandering sheep from a nearby herd?  Howi uses a little poetic license to tell the story of the perfect lamb that God supplied to Abraham for the sacrifice.  There are many parallels to Christ and Calvary woven through the script.  This monologue can be performed at any time of the year.   $10.00 DVD of the author blocking out "The Perfect Lamb" step by step   All 5 DVDs of Howi blocking out "Fear Not", "The Act", "The Precious Lamb", "The Betrayal", "Someday, Came Today".    $30.00   Return to Give Him Thanks  $4.69   (The leper who returned to give thanks)     Luke 17 records the story of the ten lepers that Jesus healed.  All ten men were healed, but only one came back to thank the Lord for his healing.  Howi uses the scriptural events and poetic license to show us a moving story of the Samaritan leper who was healed by Jesus and came back to thank him.   (A Thanksgiving themed monologue for any time of the year.)   Cast: Male Running time: 6-8 minutes depending on interpretation of actor   Obvious $7.50  (Monologue)  There are  many monologues about Calvary, but most are from Mary's or Caiaphas' point of view.  This one is from the perspective of the man who begged for the body of the Lord, Joseph of Arimethea.  The identity of the character isn't revealed to your audience until the last line.  Your audience is not only learning more Bible, but also causes the audience to see Calvary in a new way.    Powerful stand alone monologue or to compliment a larger production. 6-7 minutes    The Bethlehem of My Heart (Removing the Herods in Our Life)    This monologue is more than just the retelling of the traditional Christmas story.  It goes further and invites the audience to listen, but to also sit up and re-listen.  It makes the audience think.  Yes, to appreciate the fact that God came, Emmanuel, God with us, is the essence of why we celebrate, but to also think about how he came despite what else was happening in the earth…despite who was sitting on any earthly throne.  “The Bethlehem of My Heart”, opens the possibility for your audience to ask the question of themselves, “Who sits on the throne of my heart?”  Everyone needs a Bethlehem of the heart. This is a moving and thought provoking moment for your audience.  It can be a stand alone moment or a contribution to the evening of celebrating the birth of our Saviour. Cast: 1 M  Joseph    Running time about 7 minutes The Bethlehem of My Heart $7.49         Laughter - (Monologue)  This comical look at one of the greatest events of the Bible fits well in a woman's retreat or conference.  Sarah over hears the conversation that her husband, Abram is having with the three visitors from heaven.  A wonderfully interesting script with room for comedy and drama without compromising any of the Biblical text.  Better suited for an all female crowd.  7 minutes $8.75 Download "Laughter"          Six - What was the woman at the well thinking or doing before she went to the well?  This monologue is the last five minutes before she left to go the well.  Little does she know that she will meet Jesus there.   Obviously her life wasn’t one to be jealous of.  She had been married six times before and the man she was living with wasn’t her husband.  The script paints a very vivid picture of oppression.  With poetic license, Howi weaves another moving and enlightening monologue that needs to be seen and heard.  Cast: 1F     Serious drama  8 minutes with the right music   Download for $7.99   Great sermon set-up On My Cross - This monologue is from the carpenter's point of view who made the cross that Jesus was crucified on.  A wonderful and thought provoking monologue that fits well for Easter and as a sermon set-up.    $6.49 to download the script Brand New for 2012 - Not part of the Solo Flight Books The Twinkling His Magnificent Smallness   Psalm 147:3-4 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.  “The Twinkling”,  is a monologue that will inspire the audience to grow past conventional thinking.  It will remind the believer that God does not work according to our calendar and his timing is always right.  The seeker finds refuge in this script as it proclaims to them that even though our magnificent God spoke the stars into existence and calls them all by name, that God is still small enough to be magnificent in his healing of the broken and wounded in heart.   The Twinkling is a wonderful sermon set-up. Cast:  M/F  Can be biblical or modern day Running time:  7 minutes $7.89 to Download "The Twinkling" "Just Wing It" (monodrama) - The angel who answers the royal telephone in heaven was in the middle of a conversation with the angel Michael when a woman from Rhema called asking for a loan. The angel is blown away when the loan she is asking for is a baby boy. It's the story of the birth of the prophet, Samuel in comedy.  9 minutes  This is one of Howi's signature monologues. $8.89 Download Just Wing It   The Emmaus Disciple (Cleopas, a Witness of Pentecost Monologue)  The day of Pentecost was the birth of the church in Jerusalem.  Peter stood up that day and preached the first message that thrust the church into existence.    I have taken one of the disciples from the book of Luke chapter 24 verse 18, called Cleopas, that the Bible records was on his way to Emmaus with another disciple after Jesus’ resurrection.  On their way Jesus appeared to them, but they did not recognize him.  They talked with him as they walked and when they arrived to their home in Emmaus, the men asked Jesus to eat with them.  As Jesus began to break bread, their eyes were opened and knew that it was him.  I have taken a little poetic license to have Cleopas also on the hillside when Jesus ascended away into the heavens and there in the upper room on the day of Pentecost.  This monologue is a good mix of history and natural revealing of what the Bible says happened on that day.  Historically, according to the book of Acts, the Old Testament celebration of the feast of Pentecost was going on in Jerusalem.  Because of this thousands of people were there from other countries and regions.   Cast:  1 M  Running time about 7 minutes   $7.79 Download The Emmaus Disciple My Dad’s Shoulders (Learning to Trust So We May Soar in the Heavenlies)  There are so many wonderful memories that I have of my father that I wanted to share one that maybe you can perform for Father’s Day.  No doubt there are many others that have had the experience of being on their dad’s shoulders.  So, I’ve described mine through the medium of a monologue.  Now I look back on those wonderful days and understand better that many of those experiences were about trust, love and discovery.  Often times, trust is the door to the day of discovery and the foundation of love and appreciation.  This monologue describes the steps of trust a child learns by being on their dad’s.  Not just being on their dad’s shoulders but standing on his shoulders.  Not just standing on their dad’s shoulders, but standing on their dad’s shoulders while the dad trots around the yard. Cast:  M/F   Monologue Can add musical underscore 6 minutes with correct feeling.     $6.89 Download My Father's Shoulders
