"[The story of] a young prince who grows up giving and receiving seeds (words). He faithfully plants and waters those seeds daily, until they grow to become very powerful trees. Later, with the help of a friend, he is able to cut down and uproot the bad ones and then replant good seeds in their place"--Preliminary page.

Like seeds, your words contain not only information, but the spark of life that will produce certain results. Seeds demand a harvest and so do your words. Knowing that principle, how would you describe your life? Is it full of love, joy, peace, and expectation every day? Or is it full of drama, chaos, confusion, and disappointment? If it's the latter, you may want to consider your words. What are you saying? What and who are you listening to? There are also circumstances in life that can cause even God's word/seeds to be aborted and ineffective. The Parable of the Sower in Mark 4 explains very clearly how we can allow our harvest of good things from the Word to be aborted, choked out, neglected, or starved. It also tells us how to prevent that so God's Word can fall into good soil and grow to produce a good crop. The Bible is God speaking to us and it is chock full of information that is designed to build us up, make us victorious in life, and cause our lives to be like heaven on earth here and now!

Since the first century, Christians have detected "seeds of the Word" in the surrounding culture. No matter how charred or distorted the fragments, we can always uncover inklings of the Gospel, which can then lead people to God. Through this evocative collection of essays, Bishop Robert Barron finds those "seeds" in today's most popular films, books, and current events. How do Superman, Gran Torino, and The Hobbit illuminate the figure of Jesus? How does Bob Dylan convey the prophetic overtones of Jeremiah and Isaiah? Where can we detect the ripple of original sin in politics, sports, and the Internet culture? Finding the "seeds of the Word" requires a new vision. This book will train you to see.

"I encourage anyone who wants to have a better grounding in the biblical, historical, and theological basis for believing in the continuation of the gifts-especially gift of healing-to make this a part of his or her library. This book is not milk; it is meat." —Randy Clark Jesus brought people into direct contact with the power and authority of God. Every healing and miracle revealed the glory of God and the reality of His kingdom. Jesus gave the disciples authority to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom, to heal the sick, and to deliver the oppressed. Receive Your Miracle Now presents a strong argument for the legitimacy of a Christian healing ministry in today's church. By studying key passages of Scripture in both the Old and New Testaments, examining the thread of healing throughout church history, and presenting a theological basis for healing and deliverance ministry, Bob Sawvelle demonstrates that through the healing gifts Jesus is still glorified, the sick are still healed, the oppressed are still freed, and God's kingdom advances in the earth, as it ever has.
