He draws together all the key parts of public speaking--researching, outlining, cultivating ethos, using stories, being compassionate--in a fresh and distinctly Christian way. What a gift to Christian communicators!"
--Tim Muehlhoff, Biola University; author of Winsome Persuasion: Christian Influence in a Post-Christian World
