About Cheryl
THE SON OF MAN, the series ~
IMPORTANCE:
The world is in perilous times, with our technology dramatically outpacing our spiritual wisdom, and our warmongering religions driving humanity toward mutual annihilation. Without exception, Jesus came to light the way for every one of us, to introduce God as our loving Father, and to present us to God as faith children—spiritual siblings to one another. This is the kingdom Jesus came to reveal, the gateway to a spiritual renaissance.
UNIQUE HOOK:
The portrayal of Jesus’ childhood and young adulthood, his family life, myriad travels, and disciple relationships—featuring the biblical record’s missing years.
SERIES LOGLINE: By faith, Jesus triumphs over temptation and disappointment, realizes his divinity, proclaims God our Father and all humankind our brothers. When religious rulers have him executed, he rises from the dead, then ascends, sending back his spirit to live in us, promising someday to return.
PILOT LOGLINE: When the rumor a new king is born reaches King Herod’s jealous ears, he orders the male babies of Bethlehem massacred, placing the life of infant Jesus in imminent peril.
ALTERNATIVE PILOT LOGLINE (actually ep 3): After a celestial messenger announces it is time Jesus be about his Father’s business, Mary and Joseph mistakenly leave him behind in Jerusalem where he seeks out and confuses the “wise men of the law.”
11 episodes written. Series bible & (beautiful!) pitch deck available.
WRITER BIO: Cheryl is a non-traditional Jesus follower whose path has been forever transformed by the matchless life and teachings of the spiritual gift to humanity who called himself The Son of Man. It is her passion to present the whole arc of Jesus’ earth life in cinematic brilliance, so that all may be drawn to know, love, and follow him in the way of light and life.
Cheryl’s scripts have been awarded by Austin Film Festival, ScreenCraft, Scriptation Showcase, Outstanding Screenplays, and more.
Unique traits: I am the only one of me.
