This acclaimed post-apocalyptic novel of hope and terror from an award-winning author "pairs well with 1984 or The Handmaid's Tale" and includes a foreword by N. K. Jemisin (John Green, New York Times). When global climate change and economic crises lead to social chaos in the early 2020s, California becomes full of dangers, from pervasive water shortage to masses of vagabonds who will do anything to live to see another day. Fifteen-year-old Lauren Olamina lives inside a gated community with her preacher father, family, and neighbors, sheltered from the surrounding anarchy. In a society where any vulnerability is a risk, she suffers from hyperempathy, a debilitating sensitivity to others' emotions. Precocious and clear-eyed, Lauren must make her voice heard in order to protect her loved ones from the imminent disasters her small community stubbornly ignores. But what begins as a fight for survival soon leads to something much more: the birth of a new faith . . . and a startling vision of human destiny.

Originally published in 1998, this shockingly prescient novel's timely message of hope and resistance in the face of fanaticism is more relevant than ever. In 2032, Lauren Olamina has survived the destruction of her home and family, and realized her vision of a peaceful community in northern California based on her newly founded faith, Earthseed. The fledgling community provides refuge for outcasts facing persecution after the election of an ultra-conservative president who vows to "make America great again." In an increasingly divided and dangerous nation, Lauren's subversive colony--a minority religious faction led by a young black woman--becomes a target for President Jarret's reign of terror and oppression. Years later, Asha Vere reads the journals of a mother she never knew, Lauren Olamina. As she searches for answers about her own past, she also struggles to reconcile with the legacy of a mother caught between her duty to her chosen family and her calling to lead humankind into a better future.

A Cultivated Heart explores the Christ's teaching of the Parable of the Sower. This study is for those who have a hunger and thirst for God's Word, but have found it difficult to digest the teaching of the parables. Those that are yet being cultivated by God's Word. While Christ was here on earth He demonstrated His authority, by healing the sick, raising the dead, casting out demons and performing miracles throughout the land. In order for people to receive the message of the Kingdom, they first have to encounter the authority of the King. His purpose was not just to demonstrate His authority as the son of God, but to activate the authority in us that was given to us in the beginning. We still walk as people without hope. We allow situations to shatter our dreams, visions and promises because we don't know who we are. We have become spiritually insecure, doubtful, fearful and hopeless, because we have not grasped the true gospel of Christ. This book was written as a study tool for the body of Christ. In studying the Kingdom Parable of the Sower we pray that you the reader will be able to plunge into your inherited position as a predestined ruler on earth. I Cor. 4:20 reads: "For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power." We just can't talk the talk we have to walk the walk. (James 1:22) Talking the talk is religion, walking the walk is taking authority. I pray that your mind will be renewed as you study the message of Jesus. "The Sower."

Seeding the Heart studies Jesus account of The Parable of the Sower and its relationship to the hearts of men. The book provides commentary on Jesus description and interpretation of the various soils mentioned in his parable. Each soil represents a particular condition of mans heart in response to the word of God as typified by the planted seed. The soils of the parable are the wayside, the stony, the thorns and the good ground. The author uses each soil to illustrate both Jesus explanation of the parable and the spiritual condition of the modern Christian. The way side represents the indifferent Christian, the stony the unstable Christian, the thorny as the worldly Christian and the good as the fruitful Christian. Pertinent issues that affect Christians of today are noted in each aspect of given parable. Also included is a related chapter on the sowing and reaping principle with Biblical examples to help understand the consequences of mans actions to Divine truth.

During His time on earth, the Lord Jesus Christ taught many things by way of parables, outstanding among them is The Parable of the Sower. As a parable it stands on its own and seems to be a key to understanding all other parable, for Christ insisted, "You do not understand this parable? How them are you able to understand any parable?" (Mark 4:13). The author gives a thorough and thought provoking treatment of The Parable of the Sower, linking it very much to the kingdom of God which he emphasizes as 'then kingdom of God'. Thus neither the parable nor the kingdom can be understood apart from God's sovereignty intervening in the affairs of man ... for no amount of human effort will bring about His kingdom.
