Voice/Throat Care for Preachers.
 

Here's the deal.

I have preached at least three times a week for the last 9 years.

That adds up to around 1400 sermons that average around 35 minutes.

That total does not incude personal bible studies.

I am thinking I may have overused my voice.

For the past two months I have struggled mightily with my throat/voice.

It comes and goes in spurts.

However, today it is so bad I can barely speak.

Have you guys ever experienced this?

What do you do to combat it?

Are you a SCREAMER??

These past two months, there has been a deluge of colds and sore throats going around Ed.

Maybe you been fighting some of them bugs.

I've had three colds in 2 months. I just seem to get over one and get hit again.

I am really, really worried.

So much so that i am thinking about scheduling guest speakers for the whole month of April.

We haven't had a guest speaker for almost a year.

Stop screaming, and drink way more water. cut back on diuretics.

Not usually.

I rarely scream.

I mean I get excited, and I can get a bit loud every now and then, but I am not a screamer.
