When I worked under Wade's leadership at a church in Oklahoma, Wade showed me his methods transparently. Sometimes it was more than I wanted to know . . . like when he told me one time that sometimes he runs through the sermon while taking a Saturday night bath. Mindmanager is a great program and I used it when I was struggling with linear outlines, and it helped me break new ground. I experimented with preaching without notes a few times and enjoyed a closer connection to the audience/congregation. If you are considering joining Wade's "experiment," don't hesitate, go for it.
My first introduction to Wade was on a panel at Pepperdine discussing effective/efficient sermon preparation. His insights were greatly appreciated then, and I'm thankful that he continues to share methods that can help communicators better deliver God's message.

Wade, this is very insightful and interesting. If you ever open the doors again to teach this model, I’d be very interested!
