Synopsis

The Shepherd's Question is a thought-provoking book written by Burt Estes Howard. The book revolves around the life of a shepherd named David, who is faced with a dilemma that challenges his faith and beliefs. David is a devout Christian who has dedicated his life to tending his flock and spreading the word of God. However, when he is faced with a series of tragedies, including the death of his wife and the loss of his livelihood, he begins to question his faith and the existence of God.The book explores the themes of faith, doubt, and the search for meaning in life. It delves into the complex issues of suffering and the role of God in our lives. The story is set in the rugged landscape of the Judean hills, where David tends his sheep and grapples with his inner demons.As David struggles to come to terms with his loss and find a way forward, he encounters a wise old sage who helps him to see things in a new light. Through their conversations, David begins to understand that faith is not about having all the answers but about trusting in God's plan, even in the face of adversity.The Shepherd's Question is a beautifully written book that will appeal to readers of all ages and backgrounds. It offers a powerful message of hope and resilience in the face of life's challenges and encourages us to look beyond our own struggles to find meaning and purpose in our lives.1906.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Syrian skies, where the great watch-stars burned like night-lamps which Jehovah had lighted and swung there in the dusky dome, that his children might not be fearful in the dark; looking with wistful eyes into the somber deeps, where, as the sun went down, the Spirit of Vastness seemed to bend over the earth and fold all men and things in its shadowy bosom, the Shepherd-poet, with the infinite faith of a little child, prattles of his tiny life 9.
