Product Description
Anyone who speaks for a living knows that at some point you just run out of relevant stories to tell. And there's nothing more embarrassing to a preacher or teacher than a listener pointing out that they've heard a story three or four times now. What's a busy speaker to do? Edward K. Rowell and Leadership journal have come to the rescue with this fresh compilation of quotes, idea starters, illustrations, and humor to jump-start or add kick to speeches, sermons, and lessons. This easy-to-use volume is the perfect addition to the library of any pastor, teacher, or public speaker.

 Misleading Title January 13, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
The title promises quotes, illustrations, and humorous stories for preachers, teachers, and writers. What you're NOT told is that the contents are ONLY for those wanting strong religious material. I would not recommend this book for anyone except a conservative Christian minister. I'm a minister of a more liberal faith, and I am unable to use most of the material.
 a useful tool April 15, 2006

In preparing for the event of speaking to others, it is appropriate to people one's ideas with concrete illustrations. While our ideas may be our own, our communication is a shread event. A tool such as this book helps us get beyond ourselves into the mind of others. At least, we know when we pick an illustration that two people like it - me and the author.
