This book is composed of stories related to the many experiences the author and her husband have gone through as hobby farmers over the past several years. Lessons in Farm Life includes tales of cows, sheep, turkeys, chickens, dogs, and horses. About twenty years ago, we started out as novices, and through the years we have learned many lessons about living life on a farm. Author Nancy Grahams original purpose in writing this book was to have something tangiblewith life experiences and spiritual lessonsin order to pass down to her family. As she got further on in the writing process and began relating the many spiritual applications that could be taken from these stories, she realized the book could be a great encouragement to many Christians. This is especially true considering the traumatic and heart-wrenching events that took place within the family before the writing of this book was complete.

National Bestseller Sometimes it’s not only what we plant but where we’re planted. Now raising their four-year-old daughter, Indiana, alone, after Joey’s passing, Rory Feek digs deeper into the soil of his life and the unusual choices he and his wife, Joey, made together and the ones he’s making now to lead his family into the future. When Rory Feek and his older daughters moved into a run-down farmhouse almost twenty years ago, he had no idea of the almost fairy-tale love story that was going to unfold on that small piece of Tennessee land . . . and the lessons he and his family would learn along the way. Now two years after Joey’s passing, as Rory takes their four-year-old daughter Indiana’s hand and walks forward into an unknown future, he takes readers on his incredible journey from heartbreak to hope and, ultimately, the kind of healing that comes only through faith. A raw and vulnerable look deeper into Rory’s heart, Once Upon a Farm is filled with powerful stories of love, life, and hope and the insights that one extraordinary, ordinary man in bib overalls has gleamed along the way. As opposed to homesteading, this is instead a book on lifesteading as Rory learns to cultivate faith, love, and fatherhood on a small farm while doing everything, at times, but farming. With frequent stories of his and Joey’s years together, and how those guide his life today, Rory unpacks just what it means to be open to new experiences. “This isn’t a how-to book; it’s more of a how we, or more accurately, how He, God, planted us on a few acres of land and grew something bigger than Joey or I could have ever imagined.”

If you are three or ninety-three, you will enjoy these short stories of family life on a rural farm in Northwest Montana between the years of 1939 and 1958. They tell of living during World War II, going to a one-room school and worshipping in a fundamental church, the innocence of childhood, and the trials of the parents. These stories are true; I was one of the children. The pictures are from the family album. Each story ends with biblical principles and scriptures that relate to the story and makes it understandable no matter what season of life you are in. If you have never known farm life from crops to animals, you can as you live these memories with us.

Have you ever taken the opportunity to deeply reflect on your life experiences? Your experiences shape who you are, why you behave the way you do, and your values. Yet often, we don't take the time to "hear" the lessons that are unconsciously guiding our future steps. Reflection can help you to deepen your understanding of yourself, accept what you know to be true, and acknowledge what is standing in the way between where you've been and where you want to go. In Acres of Life, Nancy Kalsow shares heartfelt stories from her life growing up on a Wisconsin family dairy farm. She recounts the daily onslaught of farm chores, the hard work necessary to build a sustainable business and the fun and freedom that come from fresh air and unconditional love. She highlights the values and work ethic that guided her through 30+ years in corporate operations and organizational development roles. Her insights focus on values such as honesty, perseverance, respect and love, along with her personal favorite messages including "Carefree is the best kind of free", "Create your own 'outta sight' space" and "There you are!" Ironically, it wasn't until Nancy sat with her thoughts about her childhood while writing this book, that she uncovered her own personal motivation behind her coaching practice. Writing this book prompted her to create her signature coaching program, Get R.E.A.L. with Nancy. Acres of Life shares Kalsow's personal stories and the self-reflection that empowered her to lead a more joyful and fulfilling life. Her heart-warming and insightful book will inspire you to explore your own memories and discover how your experiences can make your life even more meaningful. Just as farming nurtures the soil, Acres of Life will nurture your soul!
