Originally given to me by a pastor in a small town after I volunteered with some friends to hand out food for community service, it honestly had a lot of very good stories about faith and perserverance. The most impacting story in the book for me, was the story about competition. If you compete, compete against yourself. If you must compete and compare yourself to another, compete with Christ. These things will build you into a better person.
This book is similiar to the Chicken Soup books. It has many short inspirational stories.
A picture is worth a thousand words, and a good story spans the generations. Now the same story treasury that has touched readers' souls since 1996 -- and launched a series with more than 4 million copies in print -- has gotten even better! Adorned with an updated cover to match later Stories collections and journals, and elegantly typeset within, the new book still offers over 100 encouraging story selections from some of America's best-loved communicators. Carry them in your heart, learn from their wisdom, and share them with someone you love. It's the storybook that sparked a movement!
