Publisher's summary

Communicate boldly and effectively like never before with the help and guidance of a number-one New York Times best-selling author and trusted Bishop.

In Don't Drop the Mic, Bishop Jakes speaks to listeners about communication and how the ways we speak and interact with others can be part of our everyday ministries. He helps listeners understand:

• Why the way we speak and the words we use matter
• How speaking well, no matter your topic or audience, improves your chances of getting the result you want
• How to craft your message, whether it's a simple email or a speech under the spotlights, to connect with listeners
• Why good communication is important for building connection and community
• How sharing God's Word produces abundant fruit

​Drawing lessons from Scripture and his own life, Jakes gives career advice for those who have or want to grow into a speaking career, but he also provides clear direction and insight for everyone who gives presentations, writes emails, or talks to other people in their job or home life.

There will be practical advice about how to craft insightful and meaningful communications, but the heart of this book is really about how we can communicate more clearly to build community and share the hope of Christ in our everyday lives.

The more adept we become at using all available resources to convey our message, the greater our impact. From lovers to litigators, entrepreneurs to entertainers, and bloggers to board members, we all want to communicate more effectively, intimately, and efficiently. Whether you're interviewing for a new position, proposing a new business plan, auditioning for a performance, delivering a report for your committee, teaching Sunday school, or sharing your heart with a loved one, this book will help.

Great Read

If you're seeking to really improve your skills as a orator, this is a preferred book. Jakes takes you through practical steps that can be utilized by any communicator who desires to become a expert communicator.

Wow!

I don't think I have ever read a more compelling book on the responsibility of a person who carries the mantle of preaching or teaching. This book is still challenging me and I finished it weeks ago. Thank you @bishoptdjakes

This one is transformative!

Don’t Drop The Mic

This is an excellent book. It should become a Best Seller. I would recommend this book to all he want to increase their speaking ability or learn how to speak effectively. I have learned much from this book, which will help me speak better, with more confidence and communicate better. I am not a preacher or speaker. We must all strive to be our best self. I must step more out of my comfort zone.

for new and seasoned speakers

this book really took some of the stigmas out of public speaking by giving practical steps and examples. there is a lot to unpack but taking the 1 tip at a time is what I plan to do. definitely one that will be on replay often

TD Jake's dropped the mic.

I love love love TDJakes and regularly buy his books on tape. But with a book called don't drop the mic, he dropped it by not narrating his own book. Having another person read TD Jake's words but not hear his voice strains my senses.

Inspirational

what I enjoyed most was the elaboration on the importance of good communication and the techniques to use. will be helpful in my future communication skills.

Foundational truth about Communication

This book is full of impactful knowledge based information that is applicable in every facet of life. Oftentimes, I find myself forgetting the power that I hold in my day to day communications with my personal audience in life. Thank you Mr. Jakes for delivering such life changing information and your personal story. I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to move to the next level in communication.

Inspiring and thought-provoking

I will be revisiting quite a few chapters in this book. Esp chapters 5, 6 and 7.

This Book is No Doubt Divinely Inspired!!!!

I loved reading this book ..never wanted it to end.. after reading I confess I am full and better equipped with the technical understanding of the tools necessary to carry out my calling.

For preachers and speakers alike, this book is a must read!!!!!!
