Andy Reddick's Newly Released "Threads" is a Soul-Stirring Historical Reflection on What it Means to be Woven into God's Tapestry
"Threads" from Christian Faith Publishing author Andy Reddick is a thought-provoking historical, cultural, personal, and spiritual narrative that weaves together events both dubious and scandalous underlying a peaceful rustic Iowa community along the Des Moines River as real people grapple with God, their consciences, and each other.
MEADVILLE, Pa., Feb. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "Threads": a richly woven historical and genealogical narrative, is the creation of published author Andy Reddick, an avid traveler and passionate teacher with experience at the public school and college levels.
Reddick writes, "Spools of thin twisted woven and spun fiber used to produce fabric or a needle pulling long colorful strings through material are among the images brought to surface by the mind when the term 'thread' is mentioned. But 'thread' might also be used to describe the process of interweaving, lacing, putting together, blending, or making one's way through an ordeal.
"Life is a continuous presentation of threading. As threads ourselves, we are woven into fabric among strands of various colors, thicknesses, different types of material, and lengths. As the fabric is embellished and enlarged, added strength may come from working together as though we were braided with other cords or yarn to produce unbreakable bonds.
"Sometimes, we act as loose threads, where an unfortunate circumstance has cut us off from the main fabric, we find ourselves at odds with our surroundings, or we need to be united or reunited with the tie that binds.
"Like a seamstress or quilt maker, God is waiting in the wings to take us as a loose thread or one from a new spool and blend us into His fabric, His community, and into His fold of followers. With His tools, He provides the necessary method to pattern our life according to His will. As threads of His, we bond tighter into a mass of one accord with threading that can never be successfully severed or broken."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Andy Reddick's new book is a dramatic and insightful work that traces the author's ancestry and the ripple effects of his predecessors' decisions through the tapestry of time.
Readers will find themselves absorbed in the intricate details of a past that still holds relevance for modern America, as the Master Weaver ties in all the loose threads that connect past and present and make every person who they are today.
