This is a stimulating book for all involved in public speaking. There is practical advice for those who speak for God in the pulpit, in evangelistic events, in the open air, at after -dinner talks or even in the radio studio. It is a good read for those new to public speaking while providing a necessary refresher course for those who have been proclaiming God's truth over many years. The author, Richard Bewes, is a church minister who speaks to hundreds every week. His content is distilled from a lifetime of experience by this international conference speaker.
Whether you are just starting or already an experienced speaker, you will find something useful in this book. Perhaps you are saying, 'I could never stand up in front of other people and speak.' Read this book and find out from an expert how to go about it. The writing is clear and the numerous illustrations and anecdotes add humour and colour. The book itself is a model of good, contemporary communication.
Richard Bewes is one of the mostgifed and engaging speakers of our time. Here we have the distilled wisdom of his (nearly) 60 years of speking ministry ... Practical and enormously helpful ... If i'd had the benefit of Richard Bewe's wisdom a a young preacher, many more of my sermons would have ended up on the fire rather than in the pulpit!
