Tucker reasons that 'you can greatly improve your preaching by sharpening your storytelling skills ... A story can touch the latch spring of the heart to let the life-changing gospel come in.'

Tucker also stresses the importance of telling one's own conversion story, and he profiles ten legendary preachers who displayed a clear gift for illustrative and transformational storytelling in their ministry."--Publisher's Description. | ||
