preach to the convertedAdvocate something to people who already share one’s convictions about its merits or importance.I guess we're sort of preaching to the converted already....- Tell any mother who is either working or wants to get back into paid work after having a child that it is difficult finding affordable childcare, and you are already preaching to the converted.
- Spoken word records covering social and political issues can be a bit of a dicey situation since they usually don't hold up past the first listen and they hardly sell because they're already preaching to the converted.
