Sample Script

Lights up on a garden-themed news desk. Daisy Bloom is at center, bright and enthusiastic. Rocky Root sits at a potting bench reading a gardening manual.)

Daisy: Good morning, my little leaflings! Welcome back to GNN, the Garden News Network! I'm your host, Daisy Bloom, and it is a blooming good day to dig into another root-level mystery: Why does God plant seeds?

Rocky: (adjusting reading glasses) Been wondering that myself. Back in my sprouting days, we didn’t ask questions, we just grew. But now… I wonder.

Daisy: And that’s why we’re here, Rocky! To uncover the dirt—I mean the truth—about the seeds God plants in us.

(Enter Benny the Bee, zipping across stage, doing loop-de-loops.)

Benny: Did somebody say seeds?! I LOVE seeds! I mean, pollen is my jam, but seeds are a close second. What's the buzz today?

Daisy: Benny, we’re investigating why God plants seeds in people’s hearts.

Benny: Ohhhh! Like love seeds? Joy buds? Faith sprouts?

Rocky: Exactly, young flyer. But not everyone knows that those seeds need good soil to grow.

(Enter Fern the Frog, shyly hopping on stage with a basket of sunflower seeds.)

Fern: Um, hi. I heard someone mention God’s love and I, um, brought snacks... (holds up the basket)

Daisy: Just in time, Fern! Today we're showing that just like seeds need sunlight, water, and good soil, God’s love needs to be nurtured in our lives.
