Preach often—use words when necessary
Glossophobia—fear of public speaking—is one of the most common forms of anxiety, affecting a sizeable portion of the population. Saint John Chrysostom was not a sufferer. His name means “golden-mouthed”—and was he ever. Renowned as a preacher, his sermons could last up to two hours. (Think about that the next time your pastor runs a bit long!)

Never fear living your discipleship humbly and sharing what’s in your heart. The truth always speaks volumes.
