Not sure I’m any good at it, but I do think a lot about the art of conversation. I think when there’s something you want to tell someone about, it’s important to dole it out in bite-size pieces, and only continue if they ask a follow-up question (the art being making those bites super tasty so they can’t help but ask more). No point delivering a sermon that mostly goes over their head and dissuades them from ever asking about it again.
Funnily enough this was originally advice I read about talking about your experience after coming back from a missions trip, but it’s true for every subject I’d say.
