Summary: Four individuals are hearing a simple yet profound message about following Jesus. No matter what direction they take it always leads back to “Follow Me”.
Style:  Dramatic   Duration: 4min
Actors: 7, preferably 1-3 Male. The remaining four gender neutral.

Production note: This is an OID (Oral Interpretation of Drama). There are seven cast members. Each stands center stage with the script in their hand (usually a black binder – like a choir folder) The acting is done only with their voice since it is an oral interpretation – there are no actions and nothing to memorize, just an impassioned audio performance. These can be powerful pieces because it consistently repeats the core message and redirects thoughts back to that message.
