  • Episode 187 – Persuading Audiences & Presenting Better With Dr Charles Stone, Part 1
    Feb 24 2022
    Episode 187 - Persuading Audiences & Presenting Better With Dr Charles Stone Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com The ability to persuade, particularly in a public setting, is the single greatest skill you can develop to accomplish your dreams. Many people, however, lack the skills, insight, and confidence as a public speaker, including trainers, teachers, and even preachers. There are many ways to improve public speaking abilities, but in the new compelling book, If Jesus Gave A TED Talk, popular speaker Dr. Charles Stone offers a new approach—a way to move past your limitations and become a more confident speaker and stellar persuader. Stone blends the latest neuroscience research on communication and learning with how Jesus, the Master Teacher, persuaded his audiences. It’s a revolutionary new method capturing the attention of speakers who want to lift their skills to the next level. We welcome Dr Stone back to our podcast for a rich discussion on his latest research.
