This acclaimed post-apocalyptic novel of hope and terror from an award-winning author "pairs well with 1984 or The Handmaid's Tale" and includes a foreword by N. K. Jemisin (John Green, New York Times). When global climate change and economic crises lead to social chaos in the early 2020s, California becomes full of dangers, from pervasive water shortage to masses of vagabonds who will do anything to live to see another day. Fifteen-year-old Lauren Olamina lives inside a gated community with her preacher father, family, and neighbors, sheltered from the surrounding anarchy. In a society where any vulnerability is a risk, she suffers from hyperempathy, a debilitating sensitivity to others' emotions. Precocious and clear-eyed, Lauren must make her voice heard in order to protect her loved ones from the imminent disasters her small community stubbornly ignores. But what begins as a fight for survival soon leads to something much more: the birth of a new faith . . . and a startling vision of human destiny.

Throughout the scriptures we find Jesus teaching in parables. Fortunately for us, when He was alone with His disciples, He spent time explaining them. The things He taught were Kingdom principles. By looking at these parables and their explanation we gain insight into the workings of the Kingdom. Perhaps the most important parable to understand is the parable of the sower. Jesus Himself confirmed this when the disciples asked its meaning, "Jesus said to them, "Don't you understand this parable? How then will you understand any parable?" (Mark 4:13). In other words, this parable is a key that unlocks the others. In the parable of the Sower of the Seed, Jesus explains how the Kingdom of God works, using the illustration of a farmer sowing seed. He shows how the Kingdom operates on the principle of seeds, with the Word of God being the seed that needs to be planted. Then, tells how different reactions to the seed determines the outcome of the harvest in our lives. This parable is an essential truth in unlocking and understanding the scriptures.

THE CHRONICLES OF THE SEED In the Gospel of Mark, the fourth chapter, Jesus asked two questions that should have stopped us in our tracks. However for years I read right past this without a second thought. Jesus asked his disciples the following questions when they wanted an explanation about the parable of the sower. "Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?" It was as if Jesus said STOP! Do not go any farther until you completely understand the essence of the parable of the sower. Just before this Jesus says "To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables", suggesting that this is a great mystery that is not for everybody, but you (His disciples) have the privilege of knowing and understanding this mystery. Finally He gives the key to this great mystery, "The sower soweth the Word". In other words, the Word is 'The Seed'. The Word is the Seed that all other seeds proceed from. The Word of God was here before any other seed. John 1:1 says, "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God".

Explanation of the Parable of the Sower in its entirety. We will explain the details in their biblical context and extract the truth implicit in each part of this parable. We will also combine the three perspectives of the details in Matthew 13, Mark 4, and Luke 8. Jesus Himself said that the parable of the sower is the key to understanding all the other parables as it is stated in Mark 4:13. Solid biblical knowledge for those who want to learn the truths hidden in the Scriptures. It's impossible to have a complete perspective of the biblical program that God has detailed for believers in the biblical text without understanding this parable. I would venture to say that the reason many believers live in a chaotic spiritual state is because of their lack of knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures, and understanding the parable of the sower is something that every believer should know almost immediately after the experience of being born again. Sadly, most of the teaching in churches today, and even in Christian literature, focuses on material wealth instead of spiritual growth. By no means am I criticizing anyone, for each one of us will be held accountable to God either at the judgment seat of Christ as stated in Romans 14:10; 1 Corinthians 4:5; 2 Corinthians 5:10, or at the white throne judgment of the damned in the lake of fire as stated in Revelation 20:11-15; Matthew 25:41; Mark 16:16; John 3:36. In this book you will find the answer to every single word used in connection with the parable of the sower, each one explained in its proper context and theme. After many years of teaching the Scriptures, I can tell you that you will find every answer to every question you may have if you search the biblical text and are open to being taught. I have never been motivated by financial gain or fame because I know what my God has said in His divine Word and my reward will come from Him and not from human recognition. I praise my God for allowing me to publish this book and share the wisdom and understanding that comes from Him [Matthew 11:25; Ephesians 1:17].
