Particpants gave this interactive workshop a 4.9 out of 5 rating when it was given in September, 2023.

During the six, two-hour sessions, you’ll discover practical techniques and have frequent coaching to improve your reading skills. Whether you're reading our Pastor in a church service, as part of a metaphysical meeting or silently for your own inspiration and study, Analytical Reading can help you do it with grace and confidence. 

Based on the work of Nedra Newkirk Lamar, author of Giving the Sense: How to Read Aloud with Meaning, you’ll learn to apply the logical principles and conversational patterns which are used in our everyday speech.

Then, using a question-and-answer method (and based on your own individual understanding and inspiration) you’ll be shown how to apply them to help bring out the writer’s meaning and avoid personal “mis”-interpretation. (By the way, you’ll never be told “how” to read a passage or what it “means.”) 

We’ve limited enrollment to 15 so that in each session you’ll have frequent opportunities to practice these techniques and get immediate feedback and coaching. You’ll begin to see improvement immediately.
