This book was birthed out of my desire for a puppy, a canine companion. But it turned into a journey from passive, observational, internalized faith to a stronger, clearer, more vibrant and active faith in the power of God to do everything He promises, for anyone who dares to trust Him. Adventures In Gideon is the loveliest accident that has ever happened to me. I wanted a dog. I wanted someone to love me unconditionally in a strange city. In exchange, God gave me strength and self-confidence while reflecting my every weakness, shortcoming, wart, gift and beauty through the watery blue eyes of a Weimaraner puppy. This fuzzy baby demanded that I be all that God requires of me privately - not just out in public where I had a title and a position. He demanded it at home where nobody but God could see my habits, fears, self-doubt, and struggles. My dog showed me that God was bigger than the dude I was reading about in the Bible or hearing about at church. He could handle everything I was facing, if I was willing to entrust it to Him. With every passing day, God used that little fuzzy wonder of mine to show His love, mercy, and belief in me. Ultimately, I had no choice but to take God at His word and believe Him to take care of everything I was so desperate to change in me and in my life. I decided to partner with God to change my life and I am the better for it. Adventures in Gideon tells our story - the first leg of the journey of Gideon and me - in hopes that it will encourage you to trust God, believe in yourself and love unconditionally. This journey is the most liberating process I have ever engaged. It is my prayer that by sharing these adventures you will find faith in God, a good laugh and the courage to live the life God has for you. My inspiration came from the most unlikely source, my puppy - so be on the lookout for yours. Adventures In Gideon offers a basket of life lessons with simple truths embedded. It also shares Kingdom principles: life lessons with eternal truths embedded. Each truth is illustrated through adventures with my superhero of a dog, Gideon. Whether a life lesson or Kingdom principle, each episode reveals the love of God toward us. Gideon's actions, impulses, and responses metaphorically reveal God's heart toward us or some wonderful facet of God's divine nature that each of us is called to embrace and apply to our own lives. Getting to know and love Gideon has been a beautiful reminder that God truly is love (1 John 4:8). It is the very nature of God, not just an attribute (1 John 4:16). Plant your foot on that truth and your life will begin to change.
