Ten Second Sermons

Ten Second Sermons uses a faith-based haiku format to encourage and challenge both individual readers and the church as a whole. Mark Lidtke, a devoted Christian who served as a public middle school teacher for three decades, shares how the Lord has guided him even when he struggled with his faith. As he approached retirement, he found himself in a time of reflection, and he prayed. God was quick to answer, and his faith was ignited as he wrote haikus - something he often used to promote learning as a teacher. In this book exploding with powerful verses, he tackles a number of topics, such as love, empathy, revelation, and how Christians can live for Jesus. The haikus can be used for daily inspiration or as building blocks that will help you celebrate a deepening relationship with Christ. Whether you're struggling with your faith or want to cultivate a connection with God for the first time, this book will inspire you to live your best life.
