101 STORIES WITH LIFE-CHANGING LESSONS - COMPILED BY DELBERT & SUSAN BAKER [devdakilla].pdf

A story is a great way to illustrate lessons for life. There is something ageless about a
good story. They are fun, memorable, and engaging. People love a story.
More specifically, uplifting stories cause us to examine a character or situation, think
about moral dilemmas or conflicts, and vicariously experience the consequences of choices
made. Brief stories, as in this series, often involve a single, simple, consistent action without
extraneous details or distracting circumstances. Such stories are a great way to nail down
successful principles for life.
That’s what this little volume in the Oakwood University QuoteBook Series is all about.
These stories are entertaining, enlightening, engaging, and educational. They are some of
our favorites. Each of these 101 stories has a quotation, scripture, and an opportunity for
you to make a personal application to your life. The 101 stories are categorized according to
ten (10) values or principles that are emphasized throughout the Bible and are vital to the
successful development of character. The Appendix contains additional helpful material.
This first QuoteBook since Oakwood has become a university is full of practical insights
that will motivate and encourage you as a life-long learner. We hope you enjoy it.
As we gathered and selected these stories, we kept in mind our vision statement that
encapsulates the Oakwood mission: Oakwood University graduates are leaders in service to
God and humanity. We challenge you wherever you go, always remember our Aim: Education,
Excellence, Eternity and our Motto: Enter to Learn, Depart to Serve.
