Week#1 Discussion Question#1

I personally don't have a specific public speaker that I admire. I really enjoy listening to the pastors at the First Russian Baptist Church from West Sacramento. They all different when it comes to preaching, they have different styles: ''character''(ethos)''emotional, experience''(pathos) and ''logic''(logos). Each of their speech are captivated by this patterns. I remember one of the times that we had an Envaghilization at the church we had a Eastern European preach who was speaking deep from his hart and also his personal experience. His speech was transmitting his personal experience, his entire life.People were so moved after that speech, which it definitely show how big of the impact can have on peoples' heart a good public speaker. The preach touch the hearts of many people by just the power of word, his ethos and his pathos. I definitely admire people who have the persuasion of the word, it is a very difficult task. I, personally am challenged by the public speaking, but I can still do it for a small group for about ten people. I persuade the ''pathos'', because is easy to express my thoughts boy tagging on the emotions of the audience, which it makes the audience more engaged in the conversation.I  think the Aristotle's classification scheme works, it doesn't matter of the specific order.
