Testimonies

Bob Kauflin from http://worshipmatters.com/on Testimonies :


"I'm a spontaneous guy and love to hear people share freely from their hearts. However, I've learned that in most cases having people read their testimonies is preferable to having them speak without notes. The drawback is that people can sound a little impersonal or stiff. But the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. People don't head down rabbit trails, they stay within their allotted time, their thoughts can be edited in advance for clarity and content, and they are less anxious. Written notes also allow them to deviate briefly when appropriate, but give them something to return to."
