by:James W. Moore
Popular author James W. Moore recalls how several years ago, while
delivering the sermon at his church one Sunday morning, he had told a
moving story about a boy and his dog. The author 's then-five-year-old
son, Jeff, was fascinated by the story, but feeling a bit uncertain
about some of the details of it, during the family 's car ride home from
church, Jeff asked his father, Daddy, is that story true, or were you
just preaching
Highly amused by Jeff 's question, Jim Moore went on
to explain to his young son that there are two kinds of stories: TRUE
stories, stories that happened factually in history; and TRUTH stories,
stories like Jesus parables, which are shared to underscore a dramatic
truth in life.
The several short chapters and stories in this book
are designed to highlight such life-truths, with chapter titles such as
Go out Singing, Roadblocks, Should I Forgive One Step at a Time, Who 's
in Control Here What Can One Person Do Tell Me, Please, How to Be Happy,
Why not You Keep on Keeping On, Jesus: The Message and the Messenger,
The Importance of Uniqueness, and others.
This book contains a discussion guide.
