What Grows - (Paperback)

About the Book

While some would prefer to focus on the forbidden fruit, Asjes takes us under the tree of life, gently digging deep into the dirt to reveal our spiritual roots, thus granting the reader a stunning glimpse at what grows under the surface.

Book Synopsis

With a desire to explore the nine Fruits of the Spirit through story, poetry, and image, Paul Asjes has curated a literary collection that ranges from science fiction to motorcycles, and from the safe confines of a schoolhouse to a brutal kick in the face by a cow. These fully human expressions of love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control never shy from exploring themes of loneliness, loss, failure, and disappointment. While some would prefer to focus on the forbidden fruit, Asjes takes us under the tree of life, gently digging deep into the dirt to reveal our awe-inspiring spiritual roots, thus granting the reader a stunning glimpse at what grows under the surface. Contributors include: Greg Francis, Cornelia Asjes, Breanna Rae, Paul Asjes, Joshua Seidler, Chad Michael Cox, and Skip Asjes.
