I have a routine to share. It uses a multiplying ball and a disappearance hank.
"Jim was an ordinary person. He could be you or me. He was walking down the street when he saw his neighbor's brand new bicycle. He wanted it so bad." Display first ball. "This was the sin of coveting." "Jim looked around, and saw that he was quite alone, and he took the bike." Display second ball. "The sin of coveting led him to a second sin of stealing." As Jim drove down the street he saw his mother, and she said to him, 'Where did you get that new bicycle?' To cover up his misdeed, Jim lied and said, 'My brother Bill stole it from our neighbor, and I wrestled it away from him, and am on my way to take it back to the neighbor.'" Display third ball. "Jim committed the sin of bearing false witness." "'Then why,' his mother asked, 'are you headed away from the neighborhood with it?' Jim was seized with guilt and anger and shouted 'Shut up, old woman!' and sped off." Display fourth ball. "The sins kept multiplying, and Jim had just committed the sin of dishonoring his mother." "Soon Jim felt conviction and cried out to God in repentance." Cover balls with hank. "Jesus covered the sins with His blood." Put balls in hank and display both sides empty. "When Christ has removed our sins they are cast into the sea of forgetfulness, never to be remembered against us again."

Walden,Sounds good but I would follow with that he brought the bike back and asked forgiveness from the owner and apologized to his mother and made things right with her.
See Matt 5:23-24 ,Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; 24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

Perhaps Rev Bill's suggestion could be worked in as a result of God's regeneration, making us a new creature with new desires to please God, leading to reconciliation with those he had wronged.
Also keep in mind with such routines that repentance alone does not save, it is the fact that we put our trust in Jesus for our salvation. Otherwise it's just moralism. Overall, a good routine Walden. Well done!

I'd intended to have him give it back and make apologies, just failed to write it down.

No worries Walden. It's hard to convey a complete effect script, even for a secular trick! How much more for an effect that must align with doctrine and Theology properly! It's double difficult!
