Faith

A Walk with The Lord

A diner notices a homeless man carrying a sign that reads I will work for food, feels God nudging him to drive back, and offers lunch that changes them both.

About this collection

The Christian stories readers have returned to for twenty years. Many have been read from pulpits, printed in church bulletins and passed from friend to friend because they say something true about faith in just a few minutes.

A Walk with the Lord is our most-read faith story, about a man who turns his car around when he feels God nudging him to help a stranger. A Lesson in Faith uses the tightrope walker Charles Blondin to show the difference between believing and trusting. In Don’t Worry, a little girl reads calmly through a violent storm at 30,000 feet, and The Mountain Climber, The Barber and How Much Does a Prayer Weigh? are short parables you’ll want to remember.

These faith stories are ideal for devotions, Bible studies and sermon illustrations, or for reading on a quiet morning. For more, browse our faith section.
