At a recent propaganda meeting, Liu Yuan, a pomegranate grower in Zhu Village, Durian Yuan Town, made the audience laugh with his opening remarks, "Hello everyone, I am the 'raincoat brother' who often appears in **"....In the laughter, this lecture became a story collection, and Liu Yuan, a post-85 "new farmer", talked about the experience of returning to his hometown to start a business, and talked about the achievements of leading the villagers to work and get rich, and the audience listened with relish.
This is the preaching site of the Yicheng "Red Pomegranate" People's Propaganda Group, the pomegranate growers in Durian Garden Town and the front-line pomegranate research experts are the main force of this team, so the most important thing to preach is the story. The young growers talked about the transition from going out to work to running the pomegranate orchard at home, the older one talked about the changes in the pomegranate orchard that they had experienced for more than 30 years, and the front-line experts revealed the cultivation process of the improved pomegranate.
Stories are the introduction to preaching, and more importantly, there are people in the heart and two-way interaction. The members of the propaganda team gave full play to the advantages of being close to farmers, familiar with people, familiar with the ground, and familiar with the situation, and often went to other growers' gardens to talk about pomegranate planting and potted plant maintenance skills.
This is how preaching should be, meaningful and interesting. If it is meaningful, it is necessary to show the wisdom and creation of the people of Durian Township in this land, open the door to the application of theory to practice, and make learning Xi a happy thing. If it is interesting, it is necessary to let the preaching step down from the "pulpit" and get out of the difficult and obscure theories, and we might as well go into the fields and tell more stories.
The theories are gray, while the stories are colorful. The stories of the members of the "Red Pomegranate" people's propaganda group may not have so many narrative skills, nor do they have any gorgeous rhetoric, but they rely on their true feelings, enter the brain and heart, move people's hearts, and build confidence.
