My conversation today is with Dennis Agajanian. I first met Dennis when I was in college and he performed at a youth camp where I was on staff. I remember him as a larger than life, charismatic performer who played a mean guitar. In the years since then, I've seen Dennis on stage with Billy Graham, at Harvest Crusades, and even saw him on the popular 80's ABC television show That's Incredible! But talking with Dennis you are quick to learn that he has a passion for sharing the Gospel.

Christian Music Legend Dennis Agajanian joins this episode of Conversations with Jeff to discuss music, guitars and the Gospel.

Welcome to Episode 008 of the ESSENTIALS series. In this episode we focus on one element every message needs to help you CONNECT with your audience. (01:10) Before we begin, DOWNLOAD the free Quick Guide PDF HERE: PDF Quick Guide to Creating a Talk that Sticks (01:27) It's not possible to cover in one short podcast everything needed to create a great message or sermon. So today we will focus on ONE critical element. It's a wonderful technique that will endear you to, and build trust with your listeners. First, choose the subject of your message and then refine it down to one focused objective. Create a concise sentence that defines your objective. This will rule the rest of your message creation. Then gather all the elements and items your talk will potentially contain. Next you will trim, trim, trim and then organize your elements in the order you will deliver them. 3 major areas of an orators speech were defined by Aristotle in ancient Greece. Ethos, Logos, and Pathos. (see the Venn diagram in the PDF.) Today we concentrate on the Pathos element (03:19). It's the emotional and feeling part of your talk. (08:12) Without Pathos, your talk will not sink in and stick with your listener as well as it could. (08:56) To do this, use a story, experience, or memory of your own life. The use of FEELINGS in your message often times gets a bad rap. (10:29) They are often the glue that cements the truth into your audience. (13:50) Your listeners begin to know you, then trust you. (14:55) Dennis Agajanian, a long time Christian Musician, is a master of communication from the stage. He could quickly read an audience and make changes to his message or concert accordingly. (16:35) Start cataloguing your life memories. Write them down and tag them; use voice memos on your phone or apps like Evernote to reference them. People buy the feeling they hope to get in a purchase, or any other life changing decision. (23:20)  (24:18) Thank you for the notes and emails. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We'd love to help. (25:00) Many other resources are available all across the internet to help you with ideation and content curation for your sermons and messages. i.e.: www.life.church  www.sermonspice.com www.sermonsearch.com www.sermon.net  and Google can find you many more, along with just listening and referencing your favorite speakers, pastors and communicators messages online. ---------------------------------------------------------- (09:50) Sign up for the brand new mini-course on Go-Time preparation.

What You'll Hear: Dennis came to Christ at age 11 in a church with 4 people and one light bulb, , the first time he ever talked back to an adult Larry Ward who led Dennis to Christ later ran World Hunger Started playing trumpet, and then started playing guitar after watching the Dillards on the Andy Griffith show Dennis met Billy Graham when Dennis was 17 years old while he was volunteering with Campus Crusade for Christ evangelizing at Berkeley, witnessing to the Vice President of the Hell's Angels In 1974 Cliff Barrows from the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association heard Dennis play at a concert and invited Dennis to play at their Crusade in Lubbock, TX.  Dennis met Franklin Graham there and they've been friends ever since Dennis has done 45 episodes with Billy Graham and over 300 with Franklin. Dennis and Franklin are best friends and they talk several times a day. Will Graham is executive V.P.  of the BGEA, he's just 40 years old and like a son to Dennis Dennis shares some of his fondest memories of playing at the crusades, one of them was when Billy Graham asked Dennis to go to the bars in Boise, Idaho to invite everyone to the crusade Dennis has been to 112 countries, half of all the countries in the world He averages around 110 concerts every year It's important that all men have great work ethics and good integrity When dealing with difficult people at work, a kind word will turn away wrath, but we should be straight up and deal with them directly.  Be a man and stand up like a man.  If they have freedom to be cussing then you have freedom to stand up to them.  Rebuke them sharply and be respected more than liked.  You can be the thorn in their side with God's truth. Have a kind word, but a strong word.  That's what Jesus did.  No man, especially a Christian, should ever be walked on.  Stand strong and support the Lord.  You've got be able to be the Marshall Dillon.  It's a time of confrontation, not negotiation. You should do your job at work, that's what you do.  God's love with show in you. The best way to share the Gospel at work is to first develop a friendship, and speak in a way they are likely to receive, like Paul did at Mars Hill.  Don't get right into theology.  Just talk to them.  Give them milk. People are made to respond to the truth.  We are created to follow God.  It's up to us to tell them how to do that. It's not what a man says, but what he is.  They need to be strong, and diligent, and have wisdom. Favorite verse is Colossians 3:16 When commuting listen to songs that have good Theology.  Jeremy Camp, David Crowder, Dennis Agajanian, some of the old hymns, Fanny Crosby, Michael W. Smith. Final thought: Become a student of the Bible.  Memorize certain verses.  It's important that God know us and we know Him.

You've won many awards for your music and guitar ability, what first got you interested in playing guitar and how did you get so good at it? I understand you've played at both the Billy Graham Crusades and Greg Laurie's Harvest Crusades.  How did you first come to play for these important events and how many of them have you played at? I understand you're close friends with the Grahams.  What are Billy and Franklin like in person? How many countries have you been to and how many concerts would you guess you've played at? Do you enjoy traveling or it just a necessary part of what you do? What's the most memorable event you've ever played at and why? What is the greatest misunderstanding men have about their work? Tell us about a difficult person you've worked with and how you dealt with them How important is excellence at work? How important is integrity at work? Share a tip for sharing the Gospel at work Can you share a joke our men can share at their work? What's your favorite scripture, or life verse. Can you recommend 1 or 2 things for our men to listen to on their commute to work? Any final thoughts? How can our listeners get in touch with you or learn more about you?
