When city boy turned country gent Todd Soltysiak planted a vineyard on his new rural property, he began to learn the secrets of how to care for vines. Over the course of fifteen growing seasons, he gradually came to understand the meaning of Jesus Christ's final lesson to the disciples: "I am the vine and you are the branches."
With a deep love for Jesus, and through personal observations and often humorous stories, this simple grape farmer has shared the truths he's unearthed to help us better understand how God works in the world-for God is crafting us into kingdom fruit-bearers in preparation for the spiritual harvest to come.
In I Learned It through the Grapevine, Todd draws parallels between his real-world experience in the vineyard and the truths of Scripture. The story is actually three books in one, with in-depth discussions of Jesus's final parable, a study guide to help readers uncover their role as Christians in the world, and practical tips for building and maintaining a fruitful vineyard.
