In the spring of 1931, in a rugged desert canyon on the Arizona-Nevada border, an army of workmen began one of the most difficult and daring building projects ever undertaken: the construction of Hoover Dam.

SECRETS OF A FRUITFUL HEART is a powerful, in-depth exploration of Jesus' Parable of the Sower. The wayside soil represents places in our hearts that have been trampled hard. The stones represent pockets of compromise that hinder our roots. The weeds represent cares and pleasures that choke our fruitfulness. With three powerful images, Jesus gave us His model of discipleship. When we soften our hearts, remove our stones, and cut back our weeds, our hearts become increasingly fruitful to God. This book is a compelling resource for every disciple who wants to be more fruitful.
