Speech Of Blessings

Theme: A short comedy tells of the power of the tongue and that there is indeed power in our words. Power that God has given us. When Jesus says “I tell you the truth, you can say to this mountain ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea’ and it will happen”, He means it. Let’s use our speech to see the impossible happen!
Can be used in conjunction with DramaShare’s “Speech Of Curses” script.
