The best intentions will fall short if they aren’t communicated well. If you are asked to fill the pulpit occasionally, are you confident your communication skills are up to that task?
“Communication, Public Speaking, and the Church” will explore what it takes to be heard and understood.
This exploration will include taking time to reflect on the ways people communicate, looking at both your own communication methods and the methods of those around you. You will share ideas of how to overcome the fear of public speaking by exploring the different types of public speaking.
