In this book, popular author James W. Moore talks about the power of a story, such as those
told by Jesus in the Bible. The author recalls, "I would be sitting there in the sanctuary of our
church, doing what young boys do in church, drawing pictures on the back of the bulletin,
working puzzles, looking constantly at Granny's watch, wishing the seconds hand would move
faster, daydreaming about sports, kicking my feet in the air impatiently, counting the organ
pipes... And then, the preacher would start telling a story, and I was hooked. He had my full
attention. I couldn't wait to hear the story!"
The fifty-or-so short chapters and stories included in this book highlight valuable lessons about
faith, hope, and love, and they show us how stories have the power to move us to a deeper
love for God and a deeper love for other people. A discussion guide is included.
