There are so many. I love the books of Daniel and Revelation, because they are challenging and they make me think of the everlasting future as well as the challenging times that lay ahead for this world.
I have always admired the story of Joseph, because of his unwavering faith and God's unwavering provision (Genesis 36-50, with other things mingled in there)
Paul's story is amazing. People can change
The story of Abraham and Isaac really challenges me; could I be that faithful to God, especially since I now have a son? (Genesis Chapter 22)
The story of David and Bathsheba warns me to guard my eyes (II Samuel Chapter 11)
The story of the Rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31) really influences how I think about what happens after our mortal death
Revelation 20:4 is a favorite of mine; one of those thrones will belong to me, and the others will belong to my Christian brothers and sisters
I Corinthians 6:3 tells me I will judge angels; what a responsibility we will have and be trusted with!!
Sorry, getting into specific verses
The story of Moses is captivating; he didn't think he could do it, but God enabled Him
There are sooooo many.

28"What do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, 'Son, go and work today in the vineyard.'
29" 'I will not,' he answered, but later he changed his mind and went.
30"Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. He answered, 'I will, sir,' but he did not go.
31"Which of the two did what his father wanted?"
"The first," they answered. -Matthew 21:28-31
I really get sick of irresponsible Christians that are lazy and dont do the right thing. Such a problem in todays church! Even back when I was an atheist I had a pet peve when it came to people like that!

The movie Knightriders had a strong influence, as well as the stories of Arthur and the round table. It has been one of the biggest influences on me.

The one about the greedy farmer or something... apparently I need to find it again and read it... It's so hard to read the Bible!
