Preaching? Not so much. Sharing Stories - More like it!

So, I have taken time to contemplate and realize that for me to preach is like me trying to be something I'm not. Now, my family members may disagree with me on this point, but I have to look more carefully at what I do well and who I am.

My goal of trying to demonstrate what we can learn from kids or their importance in a community is no different, but I can do this by sharing anecdotes from my experience. In telling anecdotes, I can share the passion that I feel about kids more genuinely. If I do otherwise I will spend my energy worrying about whether I am preaching well or keeping the attention of those who are listening.

I will also share some of these stories on this blog as we go along. Perhaps readers could provide feedback for me as to whether the anecdotes do their job.
