As the church adjusted its teaching methods during the weekends, more and more villagers came to listen to the lectures. Many people even came to the church before dawn and lined up here early.
When the sermon began, each of them was attentive and raised their ears, for fear of missing even a word and failing to answer the next questions.
Miss Rabbit didn't even know that her dull-witted citizens who looked like stupid geese actually loved learning so much.
However, seeing Shuangxiu Education now flourishing in Luye, she was still sincerely happy for Li Yu.
But when she turned to look at Li Yu, she found that there was not much excitement on the latter's face.
"Why, have you spent too much money recently?" the girl whispered, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "Well, if it's not enough, I can lend you some... but
You still have to pay it back. At most, I won’t charge you any interest.”
"It's not a matter of expenses." Li Yu shook his head.
"What's that for?"
"The effect of the sermon is average."
"Is this normal?" Miss Rabbit was shocked, "I don't know much about other places, but in several villages near Teacup Castle, as long as your people give lectures, everyone who can come will come, and those who can't come will be given away by their families.
It’s brought here.”
"I'm not talking about the attendance rate, but the performance of the monks. When they explain the doctrine, they are still not vivid and easy to understand, and their appeal is not as strong as the priests of the Silver Moon Church. Most of the villagers are just
I’m memorizing it for the gift.”
In fact, it's not just those monks who have retired from teaching. Li Yu himself also has this problem. He is not a professional magician, and his undergraduate degree is not in a related major. He is a monk halfway.
However, Li Yu can also make up for this shortcoming through multimedia teaching, using the shocking effect of audio-visual to directly penetrate everyone's soul.
But for now, there is no condition to equip all the tourists with equipment such as projectors and mobile power supply solar panels during weekends.
Li Yu did not move these modern technologies to any parish this time. He also wanted to use this rare opportunity to examine the business capabilities of the following monks.
As a result, according to his observations these days, many problems have indeed been exposed.
The current batch of monks in Shuangxiujiao are mainly the survivors of the Weiting family who were exiled to the Western Region. These people are generally well-educated, literate, and understand aristocratic etiquette and the customs and traditions of many places on the mainland.
It was precisely because of this that Li Yu took a fancy to them and made them become Shushi of Shuangxiujiao.
And to be honest, Li Yu didn't have much choice at that time. The lizard people couldn't speak the same language as other people in the green field, and there were feuds, so there was no way he could become a knight.
But this also brought about a problem, that is, the Shuangxiu monks were almost all from noble backgrounds, and the targets of their preaching were mostly civilians.
The two parties are of different classes, lack understanding of each other, and have no common language. Of course, communication is not so smooth.
In contrast, in addition to recruiting young talents from major families, the Silver Moon Church also has some priests who were promoted from the bottom of the church. For example, Quintus is the son of a farmer.
They are missionaries who really understand the land beneath their feet and the people on this land.
In addition, like Li Yu, people in the Wei Ting family have no experience in preaching before. When they preach now, they basically imitate Li Yu rigidly and follow the script.
You won't make any big mistakes, but there's nothing outstanding about it either.
After listening to the three hours of preaching, Li Yu felt a little sleepy.
On the other hand, the Silver Moon Church has been very successful in cultivating talents since its inheritance. They have a special temple, which is like a school and is responsible for teaching all kinds of knowledge needed to become a priest.
In addition, there are old people who come to bring in newcomers. In short, in terms of professionalism in preaching, Li Yu’s double holiday church cannot be compared with Silver Moon Church.
Ilea actually saw this, but it seemed useless even if she saw this.
After all, the Double Holiday Church has only just begun, not even half a year ago. In terms of talent accumulation, wanting to catch up with the Silver Moon Church, which has existed for thousands of years...well, it's not impossible, but it certainly won't happen overnight.
However, as the spokesperson of Saturday in the world, Li Yu, the prophet of Shuangxiu religion, obviously has a different view on this issue.
The female lord heard Li Yu mumbling some words that she didn't quite understand, such as Pinduoduo, anchor, misplaced competition, sinking, etc.
Moreover, Li Yu is also very mobile. After returning home, he immediately went online and downloaded all the videos with the highest traffic from leading anchors, short video bloggers, and talk show actors to a hard drive.
Because he didn't know which ones would be useful, he took them to Bratis together the next day, and then organized a weekend training for all the students to observe and learn.
Li Yu only made three requirements. First, establish a personal preaching style that suits you as soon as possible. Second, be as down-to-earth as possible. Third, it must be contagious and easy to understand. As for the form, there are no restrictions at all.
As soon as he finished speaking, all the soldiers below were stunned.
Some people raised concerns, "Would this be too frivolous...not serious enough?"
Li Yu explained patiently, "Our main purpose is to spread the truth, find more like-minded companions, and build the Kingdom of God on land together. This matter itself is of course serious, but in form the more relaxed the better.
"Because light-hearted things are easier to spread and be accepted by people. Besides serious things, we can't compare to Silver Moon Church."
All the warriors, you looked at me and I looked at you, but no one said a word.
This is the truth, but everyone is used to preachers being serious. Even priests like Quintus, who are famous for their affinity and personal charm, will keep an appropriate distance from believers.
Because in a sense, the preachers of major sects also represent the gods behind them.
Although Saturday is the god of rest and entertainment, it seems to make sense that his order has a more relaxed atmosphere when preaching?
But having said that, everyone still has no confidence in their hearts.
After a while, a young monk nicknamed Thrush looked around, raised his hand first, and said weakly, "I can play the lyre, and I can sing well. I wonder if I can use singing to preach?"
"This is a good idea. You can try it and see how it works." Li Yu encouraged, and then he looked at the others, "It doesn't matter if you don't have an idea for the time being. Come with me and see how people in the Kingdom of God attract attention.
Yeah."
