Order Janet's Devotional Book: "Dog Tales & Pup Parables"
Dogs demonstrate God’s unconditional love. No matter what kind of day you have had, your dog welcomes you with a wagging tail and happy eyes. These faithful pets remind us that we are loved.
Jesus used simple stories to communicate deep spiritual truths. In Dog Tales and Pup Parables, Janet DeCaster shares delightful stories from everyday experiences with dogs to help Biblical concepts come alive for spiritual growth. Enjoy 31 devotional chapters that illustrate lessons in:
- God’s love and acceptance
- Persistent prayer
- Protection through God’s Word
- Guidance of the Holy Spirit
- Hope after loss
- Spiritual training
- De-stressing
- God’s comforting care
- And much more
Each chapter also includes thematic Scripture verses for that day’s lesson, prayers of faith, and reflections for journaling and discussion. These unforgettable tales will help you to grow in your walk with Jesus and remember how much God cares for you.
What People Are Saying
Pastor Janet DeCaster is a gifted communicator both in her writing; the books she has published, her blog posts "A Samaritan Woman Speaks", and in her public speaking! The depth of her knowledge of God's Word, her quick wit, and her story-telling ability make her a sought after teacher in Bible Schools, as well as a seminar speaker, a guest speaker at church services, retreats, and conferences. She is an ordained minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ, has served as the Women's Pastor of Eden Prairie AOG. She previously served as the Pastor of Prayer Ministries for RAIN - Resurrection Apostolic International Network and IAHM -International Association of Healing Ministries and also as a volunteer in many other capacities.
Janet DeCaster has begun her writing career with two books that are quite different. ‘God Speaks’ is an excellent study guide to the Acts of the Apostles, giving both insights into the message and meaning of the book and practical challenges for Christian growth. ‘Dog Tales and Pup Parables’ is a delightful book containing 31 devotionals that come from lessons we can learn from our four-legged friends. I commend these books. Read them and they will bless you as you do.
