Jesus used gardening metaphors to communicate deep spiritual truths. He spoke of good soil, bad fruit, us as branches, and him as the true, life-giving vine.Seasoned home gardener and pastor Jed Snyder knows well the delights and frustrations of cultivating flowers, fruits and vegetables. As a happy by-product of his labor, he has also cultivated wisdom. In Everything I Ever Needed to Know I Learned in My Garden, Jed observes that our lives unfold in many ways like a garden, with seasons of sunshine and seasons of rain. We can't always control our environment, but as Jed illustrates, we can tend our gardens with care, grow deeper in faith, honor Christ more completely, and enjoy a sweet, eternal harvest."It is well-known by everyone that the teaching of Jesus was often illustrated by references to agriculture and gardening. Even for people not familiar with the intricacies of gardening, Snyder's book sheds light on important spiritual issues that we all face in our lives."-David Aikman, award-winning journalist and former TIME Magazine correspondent; multi-published author of When the Almond Tree Blossoms BIOJed Snyder (DMin and PhD, Trinity Theological Seminary) is the founder and president of Jesus Everyday Ministries and pastor of Augusta Street Church in West Colombia, South Carolina.
