Editorial Reviews

Product Description
In Bible times, God maintained a special provision for the less fortunate. As His people harvested their fields, they were instructed to always leave a portion of the crops for those in need.

Today, God's heart continues to beat for the poor, the widows, and the fatherless. And as His children, our divine commission remains the same, a directive that's nothing less than the heart of the Christian message.

Author Tom Davis encourages us to move beyond words and become Christ to those in need. Join Tom as he shares a journey from around the world and our own backyard as people's lives are changed through the power of compassion. Filled with remarkable stories of hope and mercy, Fields of the Fatherless will inspire you to love "the least of these," and discover the joy found in becoming the hands and feet of Christ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy just one!, August 22, 2008
This book is amazing. If you don't know God's heart for orphans, widows, and strangers, you will after reading this. Mr. Davis gently takes you on a ride to understanding the plight of these three categories of people and how the church is to respond. Buy a case....you'll want to hand one to everyone you know.

5.0 out of 5 stars Orphan's deserve a Christian's attention, July 30, 2008
This was a very good read. I purchased this book as a tool to make the decision whether or not to adopt a child from overseas. This author makes it very clear and cites many Biblical references to the importance of Christians to look after widows and orphans. This is a HUGE problem in the world and every Christian should help in some capacity, be it adopting, which I have done twice and more to come, or by donating time, money, or skills to help orphans and widows in our age.
