Step Inside is a compilation of short stories written by author and storyteller Melea J. Brock. Whimsical yet thought-provoking, Melea’s stories explore themes of hope, unconditional love, forgiveness, and redemption.
“We were made for story,” says Melea, whose inspiration comes from Jesus Christ, the greatest storyteller of all time. Her stories reach people in the authenticity of daily life. Delightfully entertaining, Step Inside possesses all the elements to teach, motivate, and transform.
Enhanced with artistry by Karen Newe, Step Inside features original drawings, deckled edges, and gatefold flaps. This uniquely artistic book also comes with a professionally scored audio CD featuring six stories, narrated by Melea—a truly gifted performer.
While enjoying tales like “The Worriers,” “The Grudge Bearer,” and “The Land of Stinky Feet,” readers are encouraged to relax, savor a quiet moment, and fully experience the restorative nature of story.
The parchment-like pages tell you this is a very special book that you want to treasure and protect. And the stories touch you in a rare and warm way. She pokes fun at the silly things we worry about and reminds us that carrying around grudges in a “sack” drain our lives of the good things we cherish. I also love her “get real” chapters.
