Conversion Stories
I am working on a sermon and I am looking for books in Logos that relate to conversion stories that I can use as illustrations. Do you have any suggestions on search criteria on the website or in my library?

This is a good book that I can vouch for Finding God: A Treasury of Conversion Stories by John M. Mulder. I do not know how to search one's library for this kind of resource. This is another good book but it is not necessarily about conversion in my honest review. The Evangelical Imagination: How Stories, Images, and Metaphors Created a Culture in Crisis by Karen Swallow Prior.

I'd suggest Acts 8 with the conversion of Simon the Sorcerer and of the eunuch.
I'd also suggest Acts 9 with the story of the conversion of Saul of Tarsus which later became the apostle Paul.
And Acts 10 with the conversion of Cornelius (a Gentile)!
Great illustrations from God about conversions!
xn = Christan man=man -- Acts 11:26 "....and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch".
Barney Fife is my hero! He only uses an abacus with 14 rows!

John Newton's conversion story is a classic, as is John Wesley's. You could search on their names.
Books in my Library that have conversion stories.
Finding Faith, Losing Faith: Stories of Conversion and Apostasy
I Once Was Lost: What Postmodern Skeptics Taught Us About Their Path to Jesus
