Publisher's Synopsis
Behold the Sower is a personal journey that began in the late 70's as a meditation on the parable of the sower as found in (Matthew 13:3-8). Focusing primarily on the three words of the parable-"Behold the sower." If taken seriously, this table-talk journey will guide us into a balanced, deeper, more meaningful and intimate walk with the Lord Jesus, all while occasionally interjecting some humor along the way.
Behold the Sower seeks to break us out of our rut. I believe it was Chuck Swindoll who said, a rut is just a grave with the ends kicked out! We'll get to defy the same old, same old status quo of the hum-drum church and maybe even wake a few folks up in the process. God doesn't need to grow, develop or change. He alone is God almighty, the same yesterday, today and forever! We, on the other hand, must grow, develop and allow change if we're going to be conforming to His image and be relevant in today's society.
I hope you come to a point where you feel as if we are simply conversing with one another about the sower. It is my heartfelt desire to connect with you and develop together into the mature man or woman of God that He wants us to be.
At the end of each chapter of the journey you'll find 2-3 pages have been left blank to make it appear to have more pages, so you feel the cost of the book is justifed. Just kidding! The blank pages are actually there for you. This easily affords you the opportunity to journal-to include your thoughts, comments, cross-references, doodles, impressions and really make it your own. I can't wait to get started!
