The Garden

Meer over het boek

From bestselling author Jon Gordon comes a spiritual fable about faith, hope, and love. Meet twins Jay and Kay, who, like many teenagers, face stress and anxiety. One day, they converse with their family friend and youth soccer coach, Mr. Erwin, who introduces them to a special garden he created. This garden serves as both a physical space and a metaphor, allowing Mr. Erwin to share powerful insights and practical strategies to help the twins combat their fears and anxieties. The narrative reveals the 5 D's that can undermine us and offers a proven plan to win the battle in our minds. Rooted in Gordon's faith tradition, this fable diverges from his previous business-focused works, yet retains his signature style of simplifying complex subjects to inspire action and improvement. Everyone encounters fear, anxiety, or stress at some point, and this story emphasizes the importance of overcoming these challenges to live fulfilling lives. With insights drawn from his experiences with leaders, athletes, and students, Gordon infuses the narrative with thought-provoking ideas and strategies to conquer fear through faith. Whether you personally struggle or support someone who does, this journey with Jay, Kay, and Mr. Erwin offers valuable lessons on perseverance through the power of love and belief.
