Sermon recap script

Use this template on Monday to turn Sunday’s message into a recap for people who missed it or want to remember it; keep three points even if the sermon had five, and give each point its own picture. It produces about 3 to 4 minutes of narration in 16:9, seven scenes in the storyboard.

Template

# [Sermon title and passage, e.g. The Prodigal Son, Luke 15]

## The question (0–15 seconds)
[One or two sentences that state the question the sermon answered. Start with the question itself.]
What we draw: [A question mark next to a simple scene from everyday life that shows the problem.]

## The text (15–45 seconds)
[Read or summarize the passage in three or four sentences. Give the reference.]
What we draw: [The main scene of the passage: the people, the place, one object that matters.]

## Point one (45 seconds–1:30)
[State the point in one sentence. Then one detail from the text that shows it. Then one sentence about what it means.]
What we draw: [A close-up of the detail you named: the hands, the road, the door.]

## Point two (1:30–2:15)
[Same shape: the point, the detail, the meaning.]
What we draw: [A new picture that contrasts with point one, e.g. near versus far, inside versus outside.]

## Point three (2:15–3:00)
[Same shape. This is the point people should remember on Tuesday.]
What we draw: [The picture that resolves the passage: a table, an open gate, a light.]

## Application (3:00–3:30)
[Two sentences. One thing to do this week, named plainly.]
What we draw: [The viewer's world: a kitchen table, a phone, a front door.]

## Close (3:30–3:50)
[One sentence of blessing or invitation. Name the passage again.]
What we draw: [The passage reference written on the board.]

Filled example

# The Prodigal Son, Luke 15

## The question (0–15 seconds)
What does God do when you come back after you have wasted everything? That was Sunday's question, and the answer is in a story Jesus told about two sons.
What we draw: A question mark beside a young man walking away from a farmhouse with a bag over his shoulder.

## The text (15–45 seconds)
In Luke 15, a younger son takes his inheritance early, leaves, and spends it all. A famine comes. He ends up feeding pigs and decides to go home as a hired hand. His father sees him from far off and runs.
What we draw: A pig pen with an empty trough, and in the distance a small house on a hill.

## Point one (45 seconds–1:30)
The father was watching the road. The text says he saw the son while he was still a long way off. You do not see someone far away unless you are looking. You are being watched for.
What we draw: An old man standing at a gate, one hand shading his eyes, looking down a long road.

## Point two (1:30–2:15)
The father ran. In that culture a man of his standing did not run. He gave up his dignity to close the distance faster. The welcome does not wait for your apology.
What we draw: The father's sandals kicking up dust, robe gathered in one hand.

## Point three (2:15–3:00)
The son got a robe, a ring and a feast, not a job. He came home asking to be a servant and was made a son again. Grace does not restore you to a lower position.
What we draw: A table set with bread and a cup, a ring on a hand, a robe over a chair.

## Application (3:00–3:30)
This week, if there is a road you have been afraid to walk back down, take one step. And if someone is walking back to you, meet them halfway.
What we draw: A front door with the porch light on.

## Close (3:30–3:50)
Read Luke 15 this week. The father is still at the gate.
What we draw: "Luke 15:11–32" written on the board.
