The first five minutes of your message are crucial. Though some may hang on your every word, most of your listeners expect you to prove yourself all over again every week.

For this reason, your introduction needs to send certain signals to ensure your audience will stay with you until you get to the “good stuff.”

This module focuses on how to create an inciting incident that sets up the theme of your message, as well as how to create an energetic introduction that captures your listeners attention and enables you to connect with your audience.
