A Christian Book About Finding Meaning to Your Life

Author and minister, Peter H. Zindler, makes his points about life and God with some great selections of scripture along with personal stories and antidotes. His book is called “Seeds of Greatness Sown In The Heartland” and I think it will deliver a hopeful message for all readers.

He begins his book by telling us something of his own life. He tells us about being a drunk and how he turned himself around and became a minister. His personal tale hooked me into continuing to read the rest of his book. I wanted to find out what was motivating him now in his life. There are many insightful stories that bring his view of life into better focus for the average person who should be able to identify with him.

The book is clearly written and an easy read. It is not one of those “text book” style religious books but a honest and open look at life through the eyes and heart of a man who has something of value to offer to the reader. I found the chapters interesting and enjoyable to read. More importantly they will inspire many readers to explore their own spiritual roots; perhaps, motivating some to make an even bigger effort in their own lives.

This is a good gift book to give to someone special in your life that might need a little spiritual encouragement; but it is also a wonderful book to give to yourself! It is worth spending a couple of hours to read. It might just change you in some way.
