The last two weeks I've been teaching in the Phase 2 Leadership School in Denver, and I had such a good time! The first week was called "wHoliness," a combination of wholeness and holiness. The main idea was how to connect our deepest values with our daily life and how we focus our energy. We talked about how to channel our heart (spiritual), mind (mental), soul (emotional and relational), and strength (physical) into the things that really matter.
The following week we talked about Public Speaking, a topic that everyone loves ;). Instead of spending time discussing techniques and getting technical, we honed in on this idea:
"Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you've got to say, and say it hot." (D. H. Lawrence)
The students gave two messages- once at the beginning and once at the end of the week. They did an excellent job, and made me feel like a great teacher! Next week I'm teaching in a different school about "the Kingdom and Justice."
