Book Overview

Seeds of Faith by Jeremy Langford covers an astonishing variety of spiritual practices, and does so in such a joy-filled and inviting way that we instantly feel at home. Buy this book.

--Richard J. Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline and Life with God

Jeremy Langford's multiple talents as a superb writer, a loving father, a dedicated worker, and an ardent believer, combine to make his new book perfect for anyone seeking to lead a faith-filled life in the real world. Through an artful use of the Christian tradition, insights from the spiritual masters, and compelling real-life examples, Langford shows seekers and believers alike how God can be found in all things, and how the ordinary events in our lives can be places of extraordinary grace.

--James Martin, SJ, author of My Life with the Saints

In every moment and event in our lives, God plants seeds which we may or may not notice in our paths. Our challenge is to prepare the soil of our lives to receive and nurture these seeds so that they may take root and help us grow closer to God.

By tapping into the spiritual practices revealed in scripture and throughout Christian tradition, we come to embrace what God the Gardener is doing in our lives and, in turn, to share God's grace with the world. The healthier our spiritual lives, the more abundant will be the fruits of our love, hope, joy, and kindness.

This book is for seekers of all ages and walks of life - college students, parents, professionals, the lapsed and the weary, as well as seasoned saints who wish to deepen their faith in small but meaningful ways, and it covers topics such as:

Why Believe? The Practice of DoubtAwareness: The Practice of SeekingLoneliness vs. Being Alone: The Practice of SolitudeSpiritual Exercise: The Practice of PracticeTouchstones of the Sacred: The Practice of Living SacramentallyHow, Then, Shall I Live? The Practice of VocationHappy Are They: The Practice of CelebrationWhen Did We See You Hungry? The Practice of MercyFollowing Christ: The Practice of Discipleship

Something to chew on over time for spiritual nourishment

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is a terrific little book chock full of practical tips to nourish a vital spiritual life whether one is a church goer or not. Well grounded in the Christian tradition but fully in touch with contemporary living and its challenges to staying in touch with your inner source. Read it over one time as Langford suggests and then carry it with you and take it bit by bit over a period of months. It does not grow stale and keeps me on track and grounded in a very busy life.

Will help you keep growing

After reading every single sentence and savoring many, I keep going back to this little treasure of a book. Langford's writing is accessible and honest. It is realistic which is encrouaging to a daily struggler. I particularly liked the chapters on doubt and solitude. I now more readily recognize God in ways and places where I had not noticed. Seeds is a book I will not give away - I need to refer to it from time to time - but it is a book I have bought, and will continue to do so, to give as gifts. Langford has written a new long-time friend!

Little book will touch your soul

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I'm not catholic so don't let the book category fool you. The author touches on many of the deep and spiritual questions I had, but thought no one else did. Sometimes the book is a little esoteric, but overall, hits the mark. Most chapter exercises are very useful and doable, but some would require more down time than most of us have. This book truly touched me; I have recommended it to several people already and am buying several for gifts.
