The speaker advises that when preparing to share at a church meeting, one must resist the temptation to share what sounds clever or intellectually stimulating.

A key test is to ask what has quenched the speaker's own spiritual thirst and provided comfort, mirroring the principle that one must first receive living water from Jesus to be able to give it to others.
