A parable in dog training

I just finished a new book called "Saturdays with Stella." Written by fiction author Allison Pittman, it uses the concepts of training a puppy to compare with how God trains us to sit at His feet, wait in His time, and be the obedient one He wants each of us to be.

Each chapter is centered around a certain command that mutt Stella learned in her obedience class. Pittman then goes on to use a Bible example, along with some personal revelation, to make her point.

The book is a quick read, and fun for the animal lover. You'll easily see the comparisons, but you might also find them a little simplified. A fun book for a rainy day, it's worth the look.

To purchase the book at Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1601421397

Enjoy!
