Something to chew on over time for spiritual nourishment

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

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.
