Seeds of Contemplation: Finding Your Way in an Uncertain World

In Seeds of Contemplation, Kentucky Assemblies of God Superintendent Dr. Joe Girdler invites believers to slow down, listen for the Holy Spirit, and face a pivotal time of cultural change with clear eyes and a tender heart. From the rolling Kentucky hills to the Abbey of Gethsemani, Pastor Joe weaves scripture, story, and song into twenty-two distinct conversations for followers of Jesus who feel the cultural ground shifting under their feet. These “seeds” don’t pretend everything is fine. Pastor Joe names what many only whisper: political turmoil, violence, exhaustion, compromise in the Church, the pain of #MeToo, and the silence around the unborn. Yet, he calls readers to stop living with one foot in and one foot out. Even so, this is not another angry book about “what’s wrong with the world,” but a gentle, insistent reminder that faith is personal, never private, and that your life is already planting something in the people you love. Perfect for pastors, lay-leaders, small groups, and any believer who refuses to drift with the culture, Seeds of Contemplation offers: Story-rich chapters rooted in Kentucky and global ministry Each chapter framed by scripture, worship song, and quotes Honest engagement with women about ministry, abuse, the #MeToo movement, integrity, the voiceless, and the unborn Pastoral guidance on burnout, emotional health, discernment, criticism, and “holding the line” Today, you can stop straddling the fence and start planting the seeds of an unshakeable life.
