2024 For the Church Book Awards Runner Up

Prayers, poetry, and Scripture for a life in the garden

In A Bit of Earth, Andrea G. Burke looks at the seasonal practice and common grace of gardening through a devotional lens. Part memoir, part prayer book, A Bit of Earth weaves care and intent through moments of ordinary living. This book is a lifelong resource of Scripture, poetry, and prose on the life of faith for contemplatives, gardeners, and believers.

God walks in the garden at the cool of the day. The Lord is with us when we dream about what plants to grow and when we drag our feet to pull weeds. He is with us when we preserve the fruit of our hard labors. He is with us even when we weep at the desolate, snowbound landscape of winter.

Whether you're new to gardening or already have a green thumb, anyone can learn how to garden and cultivate the soil of their hearts through A Bit of Earth.

Editorial Reviews

▼▲

“In this rich and poetic book, Andrea Burke welcomes us into her garden so that we can almost feel the dirt on our fingers, the waiting for growth, the battle against weeds and bugs, the joy of the harvest, and taste of its bounty. But far more than that, she plants in us as readers a desire for Christ to dwell richly in us, ridding us of what will choke out spiritual life and beauty, and growing in us abundant fruit of his Spirit.” —Nancy Guthrie

“As she reflects on her own careful cultivation of her garden, Andrea Burke’s tender and devotionally rich writing in A Bit of Earth will cultivate vital growth in your own heart. This is a beautiful book.” —Jared C. Wilson
