Scattering Seed in Teaching

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Brian Pickerd's Scattering Seed in Teaching is a work that profoundly connects the art of teaching to an instructor's spirituality, and his or her impact on the student beyond the lesson. . . . I encourage every teacher who 'believes' in something beyond the stated curriculum to read Mr. Pickerd's book.”

Six Sundays toward a Seventh

Arts & Literature

“From his experience of doubt to his affirmation of the Mystery, the poet's faith shows through honest and eloquent language . . . Lea's unique gift of language opens up the most ordinary detail of village life in northern Vermont and raises it to universal significance. His compassionate gaze at suffering and loss is balanced by his embrace of nature in all its forms and by moments of ecstatic revelation.”
