Communication FUNdamentals

Feb. 6, 2007

Happy Birthday to the Great Communicator, Ronald Reagan!

Today, would have been the 96th birthday of Ronald Reagan.  He was one of our most beloved and respected presidents. “The Great Communicator” was born February 6th, 1911 and passed away in 2004.  Here is a sampling of quotes from "The Great Communicator" http://www.saywhatyoumeanconvention.com/ronald-reagan.html

My dh and dd went to pay their respects at his casket viewing.  The outpouring of love for this man was amazing!  Everyone had a story to tell about how he had the knack of communicating with each person as if he were the only person on the face of the planet that mattered at that moment. 

During his eight years in the White House, the 40th U.S. president staunchly opposed communism, streamlined the federal government and promoted a “peace through strength” policy that many credit with leading to the end of the Cold War.

The Say What You Mean Convention is held each year around his birthday because he was "The Great Communicator" who spoke with humor and a Christian perpective.  The convention ended on Sunday, but we still have a lot to offer visitors!  If you haven't already downloaded  your 7 free eBooks or listened to any one of 8 audio seminars, please come on out and visit!  http://www.SayWhatYouMeanConvention.com


Ronald Reagan was effectively articualte in discussing his faith.  Now you can be also!

Would you or your children know how to answer these questions about the Christian faith?

* I am a good person.  Why do I need God?
* Aren't all religions just different paths to the same place/God?
* Why do Christians have to force their beliefs on others?
* What about all the horrible things done in Jesus' name?
* If God is so powerful, why doesn't he make me believe?
* Why is there suffering if there is a God?
* Isn't the Bible full of contradictions, revisions and mistakes?
* Doesn't the Bible go against science?

Would you know how to tailor your answers to the individual needs of each of God's children so they don't immediately put up a wall when you mention Jesus?

Does the thought of a discussion with someone about these questions intimidate you? 

How would you like to find an easy and fun way to study God's Word on these vital questions?  To prepare your children to defend and share their faith while becoming more grounded themselves?

 "be ready always to give an answer to any man who asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear" (from 1Peter 3:15)

About Me

I was raised by two Atheists of Jewish heritage, married a non practicing Catholic and became a non denominational Christian due, in part, to some Amway meetings and a Jehovah's Witness who came to my door. My purple crayon writes with humor and almost always a little out of the lines. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This blog is my creative and fun way of sharing my thoughts on communication skills relating mostly to homeschooling and sharing and defending the faith. It also reveals a bit about how the Lord took this shy Agnostic girl and allowed her to find her voice and her purpose, a zany voice to the Christian community with insight as to what unbelievers need to hear about Christ Jesus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ DON'T MISS: Tuesday Tips, Misadventures of Foot in Mouth Man, Friday Funnies, Defending the Faith SONdays ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For more creative fun with JoJo you can visit www.ArtofEloquence.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." -Proverbs 25:11
