3) Create the Framework for the Lecture

All of you have been in the Unification Church for more than ten years, and you have to be able to lecture Part One or Part Two of the lectures fluently without any hesitation. This has to become a formula. If you can as a result become someone who can apply them in the real world, how great a sphere of knowledge would you be able to come to possess? You should be able to stay up at night and read the Principle because it is interesting, becoming intoxicated in it, and making progress internally as well as in your lifestyle. The fact that you have lost such a foundation despite all this constitutes a great loss for you. This is how I see it.

Therefore, you should make plans centering on the district or county that you are going to work in and carry on the activities. Moreover, when you give lectures, you should not lecture on the topic that you do well in. You should select the topic that you cannot lecture so well in, and then by exerting yourself you should read ten times what you would have read just one time. After having done that, as you go out to lecture, you should not go to the best village in the county but go to the most humble village and try lecturing to some people.

After that, you should go to the best village. You can strengthen your weaknesses while you try once and twice, and you can come to possess the confidence that you could not possess up to now. If you do not have the confidence, you will not make progress. From this perspective, when you proclaim the Principle you should make plans regarding the target areas and then carry on the activity accordingly and at the same time also make progress on yourself.

In order for you to give lectures, you should always study the Principle before you start. If you are to lecture for two hours, you should study for more than two hours. You must pray more than twice that length. Without doing this, you cannot touch the hearts of the audience.

Here, the purpose also lies in the lectures themselves, but you have to make progress in yourself. As the number of times that you give lectures increase, you must build a solid foundation yourself and secure more firmly the heavenly relationship of heart. Centering on that foundation, you should be able to influence the whole. You will be filled with the development of the original source and come to feel the value of you activities. Therefore, the more you engage yourself in these activities, the greater the scope will become and the more you will feel the growth in your capability. (29-188)
