As communicators, we pour our hearts, minds, and bodies into what we do. We put ourselves out there - on stages, pages, and screens - in the service of others. We try not to hold anything back. “Leave it all on the stage” is our motto.
But what about our faith? Is that something we need everyone to see from the stage or up on a screen? Are we hiding (or even lying) if we don’t talk about our faith as much as we talk about everything else? Is it important we share whatever faith or belief system we have, in whatever form we can, if we’re going to be true to ourselves and others?
Those are questions this episode’s guest has wrestled with for years in a variety of contexts. Former youth pastor turned nonprofit founder turned full-time speaker, Ketric Newell, has found some answers along the way. He’s also discovered some helpful questions that shape how he’s integrating his faith and work.
Here’s where we’re going:
- 00:00:00 // Silly banter
- 00:01:22 // Introducing Ketric
- 00:05:49 // A framework for marketing yourself while being true to a belief system rooted in humility
- 00:15:29 // How to keep your content fresh - for you and for your audiences
- 00:33:30 // How to integrate what you’re learning from “growing in your faith” with your current message or audience
- 00:42:20 // Why and how personal growth is key to growing your impact on others
- 01:08:28 // How to become more action-oriented and not get bogged down in distracting ideas
In a world where faith can often be weaponized, how do we communicate hope and practical help that respectfully meets others where they’re at, regardless of their beliefs or ours?
Whether you’re a person of faith, an agnostic, an atheistic, or a worshipper of giant, invisible cats named Tony, you’re going to feel welcome in this conversation and will glean some powerful tools and tips from Ketric that to make your speaking and writing soar. Let’s do this.
