In brainstorming ideas about what speech I could study in detail‚ I turned my attention to highly influential leaders in history. One of those people is Adolf Hitler. Even the greatest ideological enemies of Hitler can agree that he was an extremely gifted and prolific speaker. In “Triumph of the Will”‚ one of the most important films of documentation and propaganda which was directed by Leni Riefenstahl and sponsored by Hitler himself‚ many of Hitler’s speeches are shown. Not only can viewers study

you go to church knowing you will be preached to about Jesus and God‚ it isn’t just that. There are life lessons to be learned and they can be applied to everyday life and he did a really good job at "teaching" us something meaningful through his speech‚ which isn’t easy to do. He used a thesis‚ posing a question if we truly know what means to be baptized and if we are truly living our lives as disciples of Jesus Christ.
