In her second book comparing her gardening experiences with Bible truths, Jill McSheehy shares her observations of compost and how they strikingly correspond to both Jesus’ command to take up our cross and His promises to bring growth out of what was once dead and useless.

The first part of the book offers a brief description of composting and its purpose. The second part shows how each element of composting compares to the life Jesus called His people to live.

With practical applications and personal stories, Jill McSheehy blends the practical and the spiritual in a way that allows readers to put into practice the simple truths she shares. A quick read, her purpose is clear: helping people live a life that counts for the Kingdom of God, where they can flourish.
