SYNOPSIS OF THE THREE BOOKS
1. Wisdom Calabash: A Collection of Inspiring Stories
This is a classic Anthology; a compilation of 35 unsung events and inspiring stories around the world that would challenge your perspective and world outlook. Each of these inspiring stories has a commentary section, Here is A Thought, where the author provided in-depth analysis to draw lessons from each event. Each story or event ended with the section, Some Beautiful Words To Remember, which comprised of carefully selected scriptures to further confirm lessons drawn from each story. This stems from the author’s belief and conviction that whatever men speak or write about comes from a natural source, but what is written in the scriptures came from a supernatural source. This book is well foot-noted for easy reading and enjoyment.
Wisdom Calabash: A Collection of Inspiring Stories is suitable for young and old, and for the family. You can use it as a tool for encouragement, motivation, instruction, and learning.
