Book Description
For over a decade the Sower's Seeds books have been a wonderful resource for teachers, preachers, and anyone who has to speak in front of an audience. Now author Brian Cavanaugh has revised and expanded his original volume--with twenty new stories--for old fans as well as a whole new audience. He includes stories of inspiration, warmth, and insight arranged around numerous universal themes ranging from awareness, compassion, perseverance, and wisdom, to such unusual themes as baseball, Thomas Edison, hospitality, and risk-taking. While the majority of stories are anonymous, there are some attributed to well known names like Zig Ziglar, Mickey Mantle, and Theodore Roosevelt. Years before there was Chicken Soup, Sower's Seeds was making readers laugh, cry, and come away with a warm heart. The newest book--like the others in the series--is ideal both for quiet inspiration and for handy, on-the-run fun. This is storytelling at its best.

Groundwork
Author: Rebecca Collison
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664248145
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
Has your faith lost its flavor? Is your spiritual life dry? Does church seem more like what you do than who you are? Is your soul ready for the new planting God has in store for this season of your life? Returning to the fields of her previous book, Preparing Fields for Seasons of Change, author Rebecca Collison takes the focus from small rural churches and shifts gears to individual faith development in the Apostle Paul’s call to be “God’s field.” Using Jesus’ agricultural-based parables as the seed, Groundwork offers a fresh perspective to working out our faith. By turning over the soil in our soul, vibrant spirituality and life-changing discipleship can emerge. With a nod to the land from which humankind was created, engagement with the farming narratives offers an organic approach to letting our roots go deep into Christ. The parables are paired with current social issues, which act as pollinators necessary for the bearing of fruit for the kingdom of God. Each chapter concludes with an opportunity to go further into spiritual practices while engaging the parable-focused seeds for contemplation, study, and exploration, either individually or in small groups.

The Sower's Book
Author: Jay Cormier
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9781556122545
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Like the sower in the Gospel parable, homilists scatter seeds of faith each Sunday, calling forth growth in the hearts of their hearers. But such sowing requires a range of supportive, accompanying work: seeding, planing, harvesting, gleaning. The Sower's Book has been written for homilists and preachers who believe that preaching is a ministry--indeed, the most important communication they have with the communities they serve. It is designed to provide a framework by which homilists can think through and develop the Sunday homily over an entire Liturgical year.
