Story Power!: Compelling Illustrations for Preaching and Teaching

Rating:
Summary: A Good Collection of Powerful Stories
Review: Fr James Feehan as an experienced preacher knows the value of powerful stories in the pulpit. 'Story Power' is his contribution to the preachers and teachers who look for such readymade stories for illustration. The book consists of 125 stories neatly organized under 25 headings. There is a wide variety among them from fables to personal witnesses. Most of these stories end with a humorous twist so much so one cannot help reflecting upon the truth presented. Anthony De Mello was wise when he said, 'A story is the shortest distance between a human being and truth'. The book is an excellent resource for preachers.
