As a former preacher and current public speaker, I place high value on using props to get my message across. I'm using the acronym CAVE to spell out four critical reasons why we should use objects in our public speaking: Connect your audience with your story or idea. Preaching for Palm Sunday service years ago I asked the congregation to throw their coats in to the aisle. It was a simple but bold request to do something just like what the crowd did for Jesus as he rode into Jerusalem on a colt several years ago. They were throwing their tunics down that was probably their only outer wrap that they owned and it was prone to get dirty, maybe torn, and unfortunately for some, have a some horse manure land on it. It was a way to honor their new king. Asking the congregation to throw their coats within the aisle connecting them with the story and made it personal. Anchor your message within the minds of your audience. How many times do we forget quickly a sermon or speech soon after we heard it? We can often remember ideas once they are linked to something we see. When speaking about the two holes in our hearts I created a big 3 foot wide brightly painted heart to put on the platform. I asked for some volunteers to place common household objects into each of the two holes that I had cut in to the heart. It created a mental picture that will not soon fade. Visualize your ideas. When performing weddings I love to make the sermon very personal to the couple and highlight their wonderful traits and uniqueness. For Eric and Kara I used a skill saw and also a violin. Eric was a carpenter and Kara was a musician. They didn't know I was going to pull these objects out and speak about how these represent them in multiple ways. I tied them together by indicating how they both work with wood to make something beautiful and just how Eric and Kara will be functioning together to make a beautiful life together. Not simply did they really enjoy it when I fired up the skill saw and ran the bow throughout the strings of [https://www.hoomet.com/profile/18739 visit the next web page] violin, but I created an anchor of a delightful day in their lives. Engage your audience's imagination. An object can jump start your presentation even before you decide to start speaking. One example is having an elegante table set for dinner on the platform before you start speaking got my congregation wondering what I was going to be discussing that day. Curiosity keeps our attention.
