Book Synopsis

This book is about hope. Our world is made up of people trying to survive losses in love, life, memory, abilities and hope. With technology and medical advances being major parts of our everyday life, one would think that we would be able to cope. Our country has become so separated that families are divided over politics, vaccines, masks, love and human rights. Families are divided against families. Brothers are divided. Churches are divided. Communities are divided. In the midst of our advanced civilization, we find a divided society lacking hope. We lack the hope of a better country for our children. We find little hope in future of relationships. This book was written to give you true hope. In the midst of losing love, there is a glimpse of hope. In the midst of the loss of civility in this nation, there is the vision of our true country. In dealing with rejection, we find where we can always go home. This book will make you laugh and touch your heart. Every story was written to lead you to a place of personal contentment and peace. Designed to help those angry with God, this book will have you develop a realistic perception of your Creator. Jesus touched lives through love and inclusion. His words changed lives. The woman at the well, the sick and dying were changed by the smallest thing . . . even just touching the hem of his garment. May this book be the gentle touch that impacts your life.

Review Quotes

High Praise for Let Me Tell You A Story

"This book will touch your heart with hope! We are bombarded daily with bad news and painful situations. At times, we are our own worst enemy. Frank McMeen has lovingly communicated life's delicate fragility, while simultaneously offering hope through our Lord. No matter what, God wants you and has made a way for you. You will enjoy Finding Hope in a Hopeless World. This book is hard to put down." -David R. Shannon, president, Freed-Hardeman University

"Warm-hearted and self-effacing, McMeen tells humorous stories about famous people he hosted for special events: Barbara Bush, Willard Scott, Paul Harvey, Mary Lou Retton. Vignettes of everyday characters, such as Miss May and McMeen's father, are my favorites. Each is linked to a Bible story and enough background information to make the example strong. McMeen's storytelling is preaching at its best for testimonials of the Christian life." -Shirley Raines, president emerita, University of Memphis; author of An Uncommon Journey: Leadership Lessons

"I just read Dr. Frank McMeen's book, and it touched my heart. Frank is a great storyteller, but he is much more than just a storyteller. Frank has a gift of being able to relate stories to everyday life. His stories will touch you and move you to be a better person. You may shed some tears as you read the book, and you may be moved to reach out and let someone else know that God loves them. Thank you, Frank, for sharing beautiful stories with beautiful applications. I am better for having read Let Me Tell You a Story: Finding Hope in a Hopeless World, and you will be, too!"

-Dr. Wayne Scott, executive vice president, Bethel University
