Public Speaking… A Divine Date
Peaceful Public Speaking
by Rhonda Davis Smith
Peaceful Public Speaking is a practical guide to overcoming the fear of public speaking. This book starts a new conversation about the dynamics of public speaking that will transform the way you think about giving a speech and can turn your anxiety into anticipation. If you could imagine, even if briefly, that the thoughts you are thinking are the cause of your upset. Setting the self-doubt aside just long enough to imprint a new or different idea on your consciousness can lead to a confident, authentic, joy-filled speaking experience.
“Allow me to whisper these kind words to you…”
When the time comes, Stand Tall
You are Enough
When you hear the audience applause, Remember
We are One
After you research, write, and prep, Know
You are Ready
The world awaits.
— Rhonda Davis Smith, Author

The Speaker's Prayer
“To the one that rules both heaven and earth. I stand before you with a simple request.
Allow me to:
Easily and effortlessly deliver the words you have placed in my hear. Change my pulsing heartbeat to the rhythm of love.
Replace my dry throat with a clear loud resonating channel for your word.
Still my racing mind so that I can focus on delivering a message with clarity and confidence.
Use my queasy stomach to remind me that I am human. As the messenger, I am no better or worse than the people I stand before.
Oh Lord, help me to remember one more time...
Creating a space of mutual love and respect is the key to giving a successful presentation.”
