If you and your parishioners don’t know much about sheep, you might find a shepherding Savior difficult to fathom; but if you grew up on a family farm anywhere in rural America, you might know something about cows. And you just might find it easier to relate to a cowherding Savior. It is this type of familiar, experiential approach to God’s word that makes this collection of model homilies so unique – and so meaningful. Messages include:

• Where Are the Lilies Now?
  
• Jesus’ Hospital
  
• Cowherding Christians
  
• A House for God

and seven more!

For use with Common, Lutheran, and Roman Catholic lectionary texts.
