With many of us, gifts we have been born with can lie dormant for years. Sometimes it is out of the pressure of difficult situations that we recognise opportunities to deploy those gifts. When the author found that her role as caregiver constrained her ability to continue itinerant evangelical work, she sought God’s guidance as to what she could do. She didn’t have to wait long. Her daughter Laura was given a book on how to paint stones. Wendy soon recognised the opportunity that this presented. God had given her the ability to paint; now she knew why. She could use stone painting as a vehicle for sharing the Gospel! And so began the Seed Stone Ministry, which has been running continuously for seventeen years. This book traces the beginnings of the ministry in Christchurch, New Zealand, then its development nation-wide before expanding world-wide. This book is for those who want to follow the mandate to ‘Go ye into all the world’, but have found themselves constrained from being able to follow that injunction. The reader cannot escape the sense of excitement as Wendy realistically, and with humour, relates and relays many of the stories that have been pivotal in propelling this ministry forward. The sheer variety of the ways that seed stones have been used to promote the Gospel of love will provide a raft of ideas – not only for those who wish to take part in this ministry, but also for others who are seeking creative ways to extend the kingdom of God through their individual talents.
