Remember the old question about the tree falling in the forest? If no one heard it fall, did it actually make a sound? Well, every week thousands of youth workers ask the same question: “If a youth pastor gives a talk to his youth group, and nobody actually hears it, did he actually speak at all?” It doesn’t take long in youth ministry before you realize that giving a talk is not the same thing as being given a hearing. This seminar will offer you a chance to think about the three basic components of a spoken message and to understand the why and how of inductive communication. You will walk away from this session with a better sense of how to prepare and deliver an effective youth talk.
