Life Lessons from God's Lesser Creatures

by Alan Outhouse

For what purpose does God provide the ability to develop an intimate relationship with His lesser creatures? These relationships point to the greatness of who God is, His supreme attributes, and thus He reveals to us something about Himself through Life Lessons from God's Lesser Creatures. This book is not as much about the love of animals (which Dr. Outhouse has definitely come to develop) as it is about the Master who designed them. It is through these lesser creatures that God has often revealed our personal flaws, while simultaneously demonstrating His perfection. This book clearly shows that our critters mimic much about their owners and their life condition. Through reading these stories, your focus will shift from understanding man and pets, to understanding God who glorifies Himself through all His creation. As much as we love and admire our pets, God can illustrate who He is in the lessons that we learn from them. And while you're learning, you'll be laughing as you meet Dr. Outhouse's menagerie and hear his true stories about Red, the remarkable Irish setter; Trixie, the indomitable ferret; Sam the scary fish-eating snake; Elizabeth the arrogant pig; Elvis the determined, but lovable goat; the mixed-up gaggle of Girls; and many more.

In humorous and personal prose, Alan shares his life-long experiences and with pets and how they both demonstrate the wisdom of God and human flaws. Deep, practical and fun. A good read!
