A pulpit is often carved, top-heavy furniture, sometimes with a built-in microphone or light. Empty it, protect the carving and any electronics, and keep it upright so it stays stable.
Pro tip: Photograph any built-in audio or lighting connections so the pulpit is ready to use at the new location.
Watch out: A pulpit is often top-heavy; keep it upright and secured so it does not tip during the carry or in transit.
