LOCAL: Speaking to Teenagers

-

Doug Fields. Duffy Robbins.

If you work with teenagers, I probably don’t have to say anything else. These two men are premier in their field. And if you live in the DFW area, you have the opportunity to see them live in a small setting when they bring the Speaking to Teenagers seminar to FBC Mckinney on September 18th.

If you don’t know anything about Doug and Duffy. Let me introduce you:

Both Doug and Duffy have had the privilege of speaking to teenagers every week for over 30 years. Doug is the founder of Simply Youth Ministry and a veteran youth pastor who was most recently at Saddleback Church in Southern California for 18 years. He has authored over 50 books—including Speaking To Teenagers with Duffy Robbins. Duffy is Professor of Youth Ministry of Eastern University in St. Davids, Pennsylvania. When Duffy isn’t teaching, he’s speaking at Seminars and workshops all over the world. In addition to his speaking ministry, Duffy has authored 17 youth ministry books and textbooks.

Doug and Duffy love Jesus, one another, youth workers, laughing and teaching others to be more effective communicators. This will be a very fun, informative and fast paced day.

You will leave this seminar knowing:

• The crucial elements of effective communication
• The essentials for understanding and connecting to a teenage audience
• Keys for personal and spiritual preparation before speaking
• The top 10 places to find great illustrations
• How to use the right types of words to make God’s Word come alive for students
• 7 proven tips to make stories more personal & effective
• An approach to turn your experiences into powerful illustrations and connecting points
• The powerful dynamics of humor and how to use it effectively
• How to keep teenagers engaged and deepen their learning
• How to avoid making the most common mistakes speakers make
• Practical guidelines to enhance your body language and gestures

GIVEAWAY: Practical Designs’ Shopping Cart Covers

-

With my first two boys we used a couple of different shopping cart/restaurant high chair covers – one was handmade by a family member and the other was store bought. Neither worked well. Maybe my ability to juggle baby, cover and seat is lacking, but I was never successful at getting the seat on, the baby in and everyone settled without something going wrong. Then the handmade one practically shredded in the washing machine and the store bought ended up sold in a consignment sale. So, I knew that we would be starting over with Weston and I really wanted one that had elastic all the way around so it fit whatever seat you put it on and had its own belt so that you don’t have to run the yucky one from the cart or high chair through the seat and around the baby. At Practical Designs I found the perfect solution. There is a reason that this shop has 100% positive feedback after over 100 reviews. Practical Designs sent me the Retro Dot Cover , seen below.

Exciting Giveaway - $25 Gift Certificate

I’m excited to tell you about our latest giveaway. Lately there have been some great deals from a new deal site from adpages.com. I’ve recently decided to partner with Adpages and bring you some more INCREDIBLE opportunities. The first step was trying out their services. So I used a credit to purchase their Clix! portrait deal . I was able to get a potrait sitting and a disk with 5 images on it for just $49. I have to admit that this is definitely my preferred way of getting pictures as prints can be VERY inexpensively made on the Internet but frequently cost an arm and a leg from the photographer directly. Besides, in our family the grandparents are generally the ones who purchase the pictures and so it doesn’t work for me to have to pick and pay at the time of the sitting. Weston just turned 6 months old and he is absolutely precious. I wanted to make sure we got a good glimpse of his personality in these pictures. I think Clix! did just that . . . I'm telling you -
