I have always loved communicating. I am working hard to develop my gifts in this area.
If you want to get serious about your gift of teaching is this must read book: COMMUNICATING FOR CHANGE, by: Andy Stanley. This book CHANGED me RADICALLY.
I promise that it will revolutionize your teaching and better than that, it will allow your HEARERS (since that is really the key right?) To retain, grow and more importantly CHANGE by allowing the Word of God to speak in a concise, powerful way.
Public speaking is the art of diluting a two-minute idea with a two-hour vocabulary. – Evan Esar
Yep. It sure is. And I am working HARD at this one. Check out some of our teachings from New Hope on-line HERE.
I am considering a pre-conference session on TEACHING and COMMUNICATING late Monday the day before we kick off THE STICKS. Would love to gather people coming to THE STICKS for a few hours of dialogue and idea sharing on one of our most important jobs. Thoughts?
blessings and peace.
That’s a great picture that has nothing to do with your blog. It looks like it was taken by a professional.
I remember the first time you preached…you did a great job but Tiffany I think went out of town. I still laugh about that but then it happened to me too…
