Summary

Tony Campolo is recognized as one of the Christian  subcultures most effective speakers. Hes a riveting  communicator who knows exactly how to frame his speeches so that  they connect with his audience, using humor, poignant and engaging  stories, and personal charm. Mary Darling, who was his coauthor on  The God of Intimacy and Action, is a spiritual director who  also teaches speech communication at Spring Arbor University (a  Christian school in Michigan) and is a skillful teacher in her own  right. They have teamed up again to write a book to explore the  connection between spirituality/spiritual practices and the ability  to communicate passionately and effectively. Since so much of what  goes on in churches and other religious organizations has to do  with communication (speaking and preaching), readers will be eager  to hear Campolos secrets and Marys intelligent  counsel on what many people find to be frightening or just plain  difficult to do well. Includes interviews with prominent Christian  leaders and thinkers:   --Shane Claiborne, author of The Irresistible Revolution  (Zondervan 2006, over 100,000 copies sold) and Jesus for  President (Zondervan, March 2008, over 31,000 copies  sold)   --Brian McLaren, author of A New Kind of Christian, Generous  Orthodoxy, and Everything Must Change; named by  Time magazine as one of Americas most influential  evangelicals in 2005.   --Mindy Caliguire, founder of Soul Care, a spiritual  formation ministry, and speaker and leadership consultant,  working with local churches and national groups such as Willow  Creek Community Church, Renovare, The Upper Room, and  InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. Her books include the new   Soul Care Series: Discovering Soul Care, Spiritual  Friendship, Soul Searching, and Simplicity.
