Product Description
No one tells a story like Charles Swindoll. This book is the perfect companion for pastors, teachers, ministry leaders, writers, and speakers. It is full of poignant tales, real-life funny stories, and perfect punch lines. The book includes a lifetime of Chuck's favorite stories, illustrations, anecdotes, poems, and quotations. - Over 1,500 entries
- Organized in A-Z format by topic
- Extensively cross-referenced
It's now easier than ever to find the perfect story or anecdote to hook listeners and hold their attention. Listeners and readers will laugh, cry, think, and get the point…and remember it. If you need just the right illustration to illustrate a biblical truth, to capture the audience's attention, to clarify a point, or to draw a conclusion this book will help you find it. With the right example, you can turn hostile skeptics into interested participants and turn people around spiritually. Truth made clear through the use of just the right illustration, anecdote, story, or quotation is applied more quickly and remembered long. - Charles Swindoll

 More for the speaker than the average guy June 27, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great product but not exactly what I was looking for. I was wanting short and sweet quotes/comments for cards and work, this is more for the professional speaker, like professors or pastors. Lots of great information- many just longer than the average guy can use.
 Excellent July 17, 2007

This is an excellent book with many illustrations from both the past and recent present. It is a valuable tool for communicators of the Word of God.

We all need a good story. We need to people our exposition with the concrete. The listeners hope to hear the words "there was this man that... or I am told that ...", knowing that the preacher is using a storehouse of wisdom. Preaching is not about one's own special story, but about clearly and in an entertaining manner telling our shared experience and needs. This type of book is a must for all who preach or speak.

Speaking in seminars and at roundtable groups, I found this book to be very helpful for ice breakers and discussion ideas. An informative approach to naritive speaking.
