The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.
George Bernard Shaw

SPEAK UP

As Christian apologists, it’s not enough simply to know facts, statistics and arguments – we also need to make the truths we share come alive in relevant and powerful ways. We seek to captivate our audience not only by the truth, but also the beauty of the Christian message.

Our SPEAK UP Persuasive Communication Workshops are for those who want to teach apologetics and worldview in captivating and persuasive ways. We want to help you become a more compelling, confident and engaging communicator – so you can more effectively teach others to reach people with the truth of Christianity.

These workshops will be held on Friday afternoons just before the opening of our Confident Christianity Conferences in Christchurch, Auckland, Wellington and Tauranga – and include dinner afterwards with our conference speakers.

Contact us for more details.

Thinking Matters Speaking Team

As a side benefit – Thinking Matters is also seeking to identify new speakers who are serious about becoming persuasive apologetics speakers.  We want to get to know you at these workshops with a view of expanding our speaking team. These workshops could lead to opportunities to speak at our events and be on our list of recommend speakers for churches, youth groups and other ministries.
