What would the Bible be without farmers? Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Job were all farmers. Shepherds came to find Jesus in the manger. Farmers and farming practices were at the center of many of Jesus' parables. And, even though he was the son of a carpenter, Jesus is called the Good Shepherd. Despite a gap of thousands of years, today's farmers face many of the same challenges as farmers in the Bible. Granted, Noah did not have a skid steer to shovel manure off the ark, and Abraham did not have GPS guidance on his oxen. However, those farmers experienced weather problems and crop failures, and also enjoyed successful seasons. Like us, they farmed and lived by faith. The stories of the biblical farmers still have special significance today. The devotions in this book explore the living farmers of the Bible, as well as those who feature in so many of Jesus' parables. They also look at other scriptures and see how farmers of the twenty-first century can apply them to daily life. Author Scott Skelly shares his lifetime of experience as a farmer in this unique devotional collection.
