- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Required for a homiletics class or I likely would not have read it. I found it very helpful as I had not done much speaking to groups to that point. Attention span, gesturing, inflection of voice, reviewing key points, intro and conclusion importance and reading from notes while speaking all dealt with. Reccomended for a new speaker.
