Overview

If you and your parishioners don't know much about sheep, you might find a shepherding Savior difficult to fathom; but if you grew up on a family farm anywhere in rural America, you might know something about cows. And you just might find it easier to relate to a cowherding Savior. It is this type of familiar, experiential approach to God's word that makes this collection of model homilies so unique -- and so meaningful. Messages include: - Where Are the Lilies Now? - Jesus' Hospital - Cowherding Christians - A House for God and seven more! For use with Common, Lutheran, and Roman Catholic lectionary texts. Gary Houston is a United Methodist clergyperson with a prior ordination in the Episcopal church. He holds a Ph.D. in Tibetan Studies. This unusual background combined with a rural southern Indiana pedigree flavors all his books. His other publications include The Cross and the Lotus (editor), Wings of the White Crane, The Bsam-yas Debate, Six Presents from God (CSS), and More Than Conquerors (CSS).
