The Deacon's Bench
While browsing the interwebs this morning, I stumbled on this bit of advice for public speakers in Forbes. I think it has some timely applications for those who speak from the ambo.
In a nutshell, it offers five important tips:
- Meet the audience where they are
- Make a heartfelt human connection
- Show respect for the listener
- Inspire follow-up thinking/action
- Leave a lasting message of significance.
Isn’t that, in a nutshell, what goes into a good homily?
