Written By Melanie Spring

Welcome to The Intentional Story Podcast!

Starting with a story is something we teach in our SPEAK With Confidence program – but so many people ask “Why?”

In this episode of The Intentional Story Podcast, Maggie talks about her process when writing a new talk. Many speakers are able to use the same talk over and over, changing just a few things and adapting it for their audience, but pastors need to change their content completely from week to week.

Everyone has a different process when putting together a talk, and each one is important – not matter what your process looks like. We spend some time talking about why we should actively find our own voices and processes instead of copying or imitating someone else, and how important it is to know who you are as you write a talk.

We want to hear you, we want to connect with you, and we want to help you tell your stories, intentionally.

Love,
Maggie, Melanie & Nate

How are you? Really.

Good is one of those throw-away words. According to the dictionary, it can mean anything from pleasurable to being approved of to having the qualities desired for a particular role.
