With The Growing Season, you’ll witness how intricately farming and faith intertwine。 Illuminated through the Bible’s truths and author Sarah Philpott’s own stories from life on a Tennessee cattle ranch, you’ll venture month by month and season by season towards relishing the splendor of God’s creation, realizing the need for you to trust Him in good times and bad, and rejoicing in the vision of abundance He has for you。

Packed with tips for baking, grilling, planting, and learning farm lingo, this collection of funny, moving, and inspiring insights will help keep you rooted in God’s desire for your life。 Kick off your work boots, pour yourself a glass of sweet iced tea, and draw closer to your Creator as you celebrate His provision。

The Growing Season by Sarah Philpott is a book that aims to devotional yet centered around life on a farm。 I thought this approach sounded intriguing, especially in regards to seasons。 I found the book to be anecdotes about this author’s farm life, grouped around the seasons, with some Scriptures and thoughts on faith scattered throughout。 I thought that the inclusion of recipes was also a nice touch。 Overall, I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to readers of memoir。 I received a d The Growing Season by Sarah Philpott is a book that aims to devotional yet centered around life on a farm。 I thought this approach sounded intriguing, especially in regards to seasons。 I found the book to be anecdotes about this author’s farm life, grouped around the seasons, with some Scriptures and thoughts on faith scattered throughout。 I thought that the inclusion of recipes was also a nice touch。 Overall, I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to readers of memoir。 I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher with no obligations。 These opinions are entirely my own。 。。。more

I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for a review。 I was really excited when I saw this book to read it, but it did not live up to its promise。 Overly simplistic, lacking depth, and often repetitive, I found this book tiresome and couldn't bring myself to finish it。 I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for a review。 I was really excited when I saw this book to read it, but it did not live up to its promise。 Overly simplistic, lacking depth, and often repetitive, I found this book tiresome and couldn't bring myself to finish it。 。。。more

This Christian devotional book was written by a farmer's wife。 The format is a seasonal and monthly one with short chapters。 Each chapter includes a Bible verse and a devotional story about the farm or nature。 the book also includes some recipes and garden activities。 I love nature and gardens but am not a farmer。 This devotional introduced me to some aspects of farm life that I had not thought about。 It also increased my love for the plants and animals in God's world。 I recommend this devotiona This Christian devotional book was written by a farmer's wife。 The format is a seasonal and monthly one with short chapters。 Each chapter includes a Bible verse and a devotional story about the farm or nature。 the book also includes some recipes and garden activities。 I love nature and gardens but am not a farmer。 This devotional introduced me to some aspects of farm life that I had not thought about。 It also increased my love for the plants and animals in God's world。 I recommend this devotional for any Christian who also loves nature。 I received a complementary copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

This is a very inspiring daily devotional。 Reading this book has brought back memories of when I was growing up on a farm。 I am reminded daily to be thankful for all I have been given。 Thanks to author Sarah Philpott, NetGalley, and Harvest House Publishers for providing a copy of this book for review。
