The book that hasn't been written. (yet).
|
Greetings to all.
Ever since I picked my family up and moved them to the country we have been trying to put together a "country library". (A group of books that will help us in our quest to become more self sufficient, less dependent, and make our families ask more questions about our sanity). We've picked up several at local bookstores and a couple at our public library. We've ordered a few over the internet and we've even bought magazines and subscribed to newsletters. I was almost at my wits end.
Then as I glanced over my bookshelf I got an idea. It hit me like like a 265 lb. linebacker coming in unblocked on my blind side...
"The Purpose Driven Farm"
And I know who could write it. A certain author out there has already helped people find a purpose for their church as well as their own lives. So why not their farms?
Picture this.....small groups studies on "40 Days of Homesteading". Think of the time I could save. One book, one study, and KA-BOOM! In 40 Days, a plan for my farm.
Take Care, God Bless, and GO VOLS! - Tony

Actually, Tony that is a really great idea.
You may already know this, since you have so many homesteady-type books--but I heard on a kid's show that Jersey cows give the creamiest milk. Just thought you might want to know.
Love the cartoon!

Wow! In only 40 days? Really??
When will we learn that God is not approached with nice tidy formulas like some math problem to be solved?

The absolute best book on homesteading is Carla Emery's An Encyclopedia of Country Living. I'll tell you about every book I know to save the rest of us from another purpose driven ministry!! They may not get you there in 40 days, but just so's ya know, a farmer's work is NEVER done!!
Love your crazy blog!
Blessings!
