YASS.

I waited two years to read this and tried to start it about ten times. This time, it was the right time. Man, to hear his confirmations of the stirrings I kept feeling and the importance of community are exactly what I wanted to hear about TODAY, not two years ago.

This book is simple and straightforward, gentle but firm. It's so good. Stop trying to be your own hero; your scriptural grounding will take you further and higher than you could ever go on your own. The roots must go much deeper and wider than you think.
It's up to you!

Read this book!

Intimacy. Service. Community. These are the three soils in which Banning Liebscher says that we are planted in order to grow root systems in God that lead to last fruit. He used the life of David, a man who had a firm and solid relationship with God and also bore fruit that still lasts to this day, as his primary example throughout the book.

He did a great job of conveying the importance of each of these soils as well as supporting each of his point with Scripture, which is so helpful and important for me as I grow up in Christ. Because of this book, I am better able to understand how and why each of these three soils is vital to my growth and essential if I want to fulfill the calling that God has placed on my life. As someone that is planted in the soil of intimacy at the moment, I'm excited to move into the soils of service and community in His time.

I would definitely recommend this book to anybody that wants insight into God's development process in their lives.

Great book on the principles of being rooted in the faith as outlined in the life of King David. This book will challenge you, inspire you, and make you think more about the ways in which your life could be more intentionally devoted to faith.
