Something for my preacher friends...

Before you get up in front of your people next Sunday, Mr. Preacher, chew on this...

"How would you communicate this message if your eighteen-year-old son had made up his mind to walk away from everything you have taught him, morally, ethically, and theologically, unless he had a compelling reason not to? What would you say this morning if you knew that was at stake? Because for somebody's son out there this may be his last chance. Now quit worrying about your outline. Go out there and plead your case like your own son's future was at stake."

(Communicating for a Change, by Andy Stanley, p. 98-99)
