It is certainly clear that God has supplied the world with stories for a reason. Stories can carry deep meaning and lasting value. They have power to encourage and inspire the teller as well as the listener. They teach life lessons and warm our hearts. The Lord's profound message comes alive through stories. Throughout His Word, God has used relatable and persuasive narratives as one way to connect with His people. He also speaks to each of us through an abundance of intimate, wisdom-producing accounts from our own lives.

This weekly devotional is meant to offer a sampling of those stories; fifty-two personal anecdotes entwined with relevant Scripture and lessons learned. Sunday Stories is a compilation of mostly random narratives, some funny and some serious, yet all of which have influenced the author's life and quite often through the Lord's rebuke. It is the hope that this book will promote spiritual growth and a hunger for God's Word. And that in perusing these accounts, the reader will grow - as noted in Romans 12:12 - to be more "joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."
