A Basket of Barley Loaves

A collection of short Christian meditations and homilies intended to nurture assurance, holiness, and intimacy with Christ. Each chapter reflects on aspects of Jesus’ person and work—his name, compassion, chastening, forgiveness, the cross, presence, and future appearing—using Psalms and New Testament imagery to encourage prayerful trust, abiding in Christ, and practical Christian living. Pastoral reflections alternate with exhortation and biblical exposition, aiming to comfort the needy, guide novice believers toward assurance, and deepen devotion through meditation on promises, suffering, and the abundant life in Christ.
