Ken Davis can do wonders for your speaking.

I’ve never met Ken Davis but I’ve watched some of his comedy on YouTube. Most of my experience with this gifted comedian and speaker has come from reading his book How to Speak to Youth and Keep Them Awake At The Same Time. As a speech teacher I’ve read quite a few books on public speaking. Not many of them have been able to match the intentionality, personality, and practicality of Mr. Davis. His SCORRE method helped me bring clarity and depth to a set of sermons I preached over the summer. His book is a must read for anyone who desires to be serious about speaking not just to youth but to adults as well.

Thanks again Ken!
