NAME:
COMS 101
Date Due:
Organization: Identify your outline pattern here. Your only option for this speech is the Topical pattern (see the textbook, p 701).
Audience analysis: Mixed gender group ages 20-25 with a fairly good background on the subject.
Topic: To show how the work of lawyers is a valued by God, and to show how one person can be a lawyer and serve God.
Rhetorical Purpose: To inform my audience about lawyers and the role they play.
Redemptive Purpose: To inform my audience how this vocation or vocational skill of being a lawyer can serve as a platform for promoting something that God values according to Scriptures Romans 8:28, Luke 23:32-43,John 8:1-11, John 8:33-35,
Introduction: I. Attention-getter Point out audience members, and charge each member with a crime. One shall be a murderer, one will be a thief, and one will be a prostitute. These labels are horrible labels and would require a lawyer to escape jail time, but these were some of the main people associated with Jesus Christ. II. Motive for Listening Ask the audience, “Have they ever wondered if lawyers can represent certain people involved in certain cases and still be Christians? For example, O.J Simpsons, George Zimmerman’s or Casey Anthony’s defense teams to name a few. Let them know that by the end of this presentation they should have a clearer understanding of how this can be done. III. Credibility Statement As a Christian who striving for their law degree, I have often struggled with this question. I prayed and asked God to show me what I was missing as I went to the bible and began to look. The role of lawyers became clear.
IV. Purpose or Thesis Statement To Show how one can be both a Christian and a lawyer, regardless of who they represent.
V. Preview Statement I will show how being a Christian and a lawyer actually compliments and benefit each other.
