Synopsis
2015 READERS' FAVORITE AWARD WINNER.
Cherished is the only human in the Garden. Naïve and confused, he yearns to understand his invisible Creator, the rules governing the world, and his own place within it. Instead of answers, he encounters three Teachers and a series of challenges that upend his perceptions and security. As dangers mount and questions multiply, Cherished must learn how to convert these challenges into a means for developing unwavering trust in Creator.
This story explores disappointment, failure, doubt, and the difficult lessons that transform a soul. At its core, it is an allegory about one’s deepening relationship with God, leading to peace, intimacy, and trust. Through symbolism, vivid storytelling, and thought-provoking discussion questions, the author invites readers to wrestle with the challenge of trusting God when facing the worst of circumstances.
"A must read for anyone on a spiritual journey." —Richard Rohr, OFM, The Center for Action and Contemplation
"This book definitely inspired me to trust more fully in God." —Pastor Doug McCoy, Columbus, OH
Ideal for readers who enjoy thoughtful Christian allegory, spiritual transformation fiction, and books that inspire personal reflection and group discussion.
To facilitate contemplation and spiritual growth, Four in the Garden is divided into short thematic chapters and discussion questions are provided at the end of the book and on the author’s website.
