Author Jim Geyer says he has two blessings in life. The first blessing was godly parents who daily instilled in him biblical and moral values by both word and example. The second blessing was being raised on a farm where he was taught informed by God's marvelous creation.Travel with Jim Geyer to a time when a man's word was his bond, when a handshake was all that was needed to consummate an agreement, a time when doors were seldom locked and windows were often open to catch the warm evening summer breeze. A time when growing up was a fun, carefree time.Consider today's culture and you immediately see a marked decline in the strength of families who each evening gather around the supper table. There is an observable decrease in honesty, integrity and accountability. Dad & Mom's Country Wisdom offers pleasant memories of your parents' childhood. This book will bless you with many Scriptures that have and still do relate to our daily experiences and challenges you in your personal, family and business life.

Jerry App’s farm stories open the barn door to understanding life in the country. “Even with the all the hard work, we had more time (perhaps we took more time) to enjoy what was all around us: nights filled with starlight, days with clear blue skies and puffy clouds. Wonderful smells everywhere—fresh mown hay, wildflowers, and apple blossoms. Interesting sounds—the rumble of distant thunder, an owl calling in the woods, a flock of Canada geese winging over in the fall.” In this paperback edition of a beloved Jerry Apps classic, the rural historian tells stories from his childhood days on a small central Wisconsin dairy farm in the 1930s and 1950s. From a January morning memory of pancakes piled high after chores, to a June day spent learning to ride a pony named Ginger, Jerry moves through the turn of the seasons and teaches gentle lessons about life on the farm. With recipes associated with each month and a new introduction exclusive to this 2nd edition, Living a Country Year celebrates the rhythms of rural life with warmth and humor.
