    Have you ever asked yourself, "Why in the world is God putting me in this situation and why am I dealing with this group of people"? As leaders, we struggle to see the value that some bring to the table and secretly wish God would shuffle the deck and deal us another hand.

    In this episode, I share my thoughts on how and why we should be telling stories in our preaching. Storytelling is one of the most effective forms of communication not just in preaching but in every area of our lives. When used correctly it can produce wonderful results in the minds and hearts of the hearers. As is with any tool, Storytelling must be done correctly and prayerfully not just any story will do. Studies have found that nothing moves people in a speech like a good, timely, and on-point story. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jeremy-mills/support
