Are You A Salesperson?
I had missed this post over at John O'Keefe's blog. Good points.

And I was reminded of this quote from Big Kahuna by Jamie:

“It doesn't matter whether you're selling Jesus or Buddha or civil rights or 'How to Make Money in Real Estate With No Money Down.' That doesn't make you a human being; it makes you a marketing rep. If you want to talk to somebody honestly, as a human being, ask him about his kids. Find out what his dreams are - just to find out, for no other reason. Because as soon as you lay your hands on a conversation to steer it, it's not a conversation anymore; it's a pitch.” --Phil (played by Danny Devito)

Big Kahuna was based on a screenplay called The Hospitality Suite. Zedler and I had a copy for a while, hoping that we could perform it somewhere live. It would be great for any church willing to risk it.
