Synopsis

A walk through the Psalms alongside a little band of sheep, whose stories are full of deep lessons. Gentle parables featuring Vera, Murray, and the rest of this small farm flock communicate simple truths without raising defences. Sheep are individuals who differ from each other and benefit from individualized care. Shepherds have always dealt with primal concerns - birth, death, love, rejection. Technology has changed much in the last millennium but the mud and the blood of shepherding are timeless - and sheep are still sheep. Sharing this ancient occupation with David helped Suzanne to understand what he had to say about walking with God. 'Like David's beloved sheep, the members of my flock will engage the hearts of readers, helping them see more clearly, and follow the Shepherd more closely.'
