The first three chapters of The Prodigal Son which can be found on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The story follows the parable from the Bible and illustrates its meaning.

Barhat is a prodigal who is more concerned about the next adventure he has coming his way than he is about his family. When he is given the chance to leave his father's house with a wagon full of riches he takes it without regard for what he is leaving behind; the comfort and safety of home, and the beautiful Afra, whose face and words follow in the form of a memory.

His destination is the famous city of Nikat-taw, a city of both wealth and poverty . Barhat quickly finds himself in depravity that leads to ruin and is constantly threatened with failure, while being encouraged by the last words uttered to him by the memorable Afra.All Rights Reserved

The title is by default self explanatory (if you don't know the meaning of Eccedentesiast then Google it because dictionary is a 90s thing now).So this is a story about a teen ,Siyali who is a very good driver .Yes . She drives people crazy (what did you think huh ?) .Her classmates say that she is hilarious and has a positive approach towards life .Her parents say that she plans everything but does not mingle with everyone .But the people of her age group in her apartment ignore her as she is a beast and has a very bad attitude .Now a single person can't possess so many personalities unless they have a multi personality disorder. But what is Siyali's story ?What is her character?Who is she? To see Siyali talk about her life stay tuned as she takes a walk down her memory lane and shows you the struggle of an Indian teenage girl . And if you don't like the first chapter then.......... Maybe you will like the second one so .........read !

Phillip Carlyle, as if joining the circus was bad enough, is found at the centre of a scandal. He turns to the only person he trusts and loves: the showman himself, P.T. Barnum. Just a Story... (Each chapter is 500-1200 words long, supposed to be 11 chapters by the time I've finished)

Stories For Ears To Hear: A Re-imagining Of The Parables Of Jesus by TincanCaldwell

What if the Parable of the Good Samaritan happened during 9/11? What if the story of the Prodigal Son took place on the party island of Ibiza in Spain? What if the Parable of the Talents took place on a television reality show? When asked a question like "Who is my neighbor?," Jesus often answered with a story. He did this because humans often see themselves in stories better than they do in direct answers. For instance, the universal situation of rescuing someone who is in desperate need on the side of the road somewhere, far from home, resonates with people down through the ages. In Stories for Ears to Hear, Tincan Caldwell puts a modern spin on the parables of Jesus in an attempt to help the reader imagine what the heart of these stories would look like today. In his famous challenge before telling a parable, Jesus would encourage "those with ears to hear" to listen to his tales of prodigal sons, lost coins, victimized travelers on the road, and elaborate parties with no guests. In telling these stories, Jesus brought the sensibilities of heaven to the very real dusty highways and hills of his homeland. In re-imagining these classic parables (the parable of the good Samaritan set against the backdrop of the 9/11 tragedy, the parable of the unmerciful servant moved to a struggling record store, the parable of the talents reimagined in the world of a network reality show), Caldwell challenges readers to re-examine how heaven wants to invade the everyday stuff of life, like roads, parties, wayward sons, and the foundations we build our lives upon. That makes for a great story any day...

Matthew by whatiliketowrite

It's a story about a poor and homeless boy, one day a woman finds him on the street and she wants to help him and she wants to give him a place where he can stay and call home, but that's not always easy.
