The final day of Catalyst proved eventful yet packed with speakers. First Nancy Durate, a professional communication expert, share some thoughts of verbal communication:
*A mediocre message with an excellent communicator will be accepted.
She advocated a 3 part structure, with a beginning, middle, and end. She believes a hero is required, and somehow the audience needs to be that hero.
*People will always remember the last thing you say.
Next Bob Goff was a silly guy, but had some interesting thoughts for the crowd as he discussed posers:
Things that make us posers:
1) Fear
2) Not being who Jesus wants us to be
**We leak the stuff we love**
*Many of us stalk Jesus, studying from afar and never really have much of a relationship*
Finally, Perry Noble spoke in the afternoon with some great thoughts on leadership from John 11:1-30.
*If things aren't going the way you planned them, ask these questions:
1) What are you asking God for? - many time were afraid to ask God for big things...
2) What am I willing to go through? - God is asking church leaders mild or wild
3) Am I seeing Him clearly? - when we understand who He is, we will do ANYTHING
--Instead of God get me out, we need to ask God, LET ME SEE YOU.
4) What am I willing to believe? (John 11:38-40)
If you believe, you will see the glory of God. His promise is greater than your problem.
