If 200 people showed up into your room to listen to you speak, wouldn't you be shocked? Social media has made us bigger than we actually are. And if you went outside and tried to get 5 people to listen to you on the streets, how successful would you be? Meanwhile, you have 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 people, and then upwards of tens and thousands of millions of people listening to what you have to say. It's amazing. You have to have this audience of one mentality. You want to speak to God and receive from him to speak to his people. So either way, you're hearing from one and you're speaking to one. And the last thing that I want to share as a part of this creative process is have fun with it.
