As an author, Sara’s newest book is a MUST-READ:
“Have you ever felt like there was something more meant for your life?
Sara journeys to the very heart of Scripture to discover how to “live in the chance-taking,
destiny-fulfilling, peace-filled, mess-making, love-driven way for which we were
designed.” UNCOMMON VESSELS helps you unearth new truths about your specific
calling. It helps readers navigate past ‘stuck places’ in their lives with prayerful encounters designed to ask God the hard questions- and hear him answer!

A special note from the filmmaker, Fritz Feick:

I was reading about ‘the fruit of the Spirit’ and came across an article that cited an unexpected scriptural reference: Luke 13:6-9 "The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree"

And he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. And he said to the vinedresser, ‘Look, for three years now I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. Cut it down. Why should it use up the ground? And he answered him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put on manure. Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.”

Reading these words, I suddenly realized this parable was all about me, except for the fact that instead of 3 years of not bearing fruit, I had spent 40… 40 years of wandering in my own wilderness—a place of my own choosing. And then something happened. It was a miracle. I started reading the Bible from page 1, and God started pouring miracles, signs, wonders and gifts into my life. I was surrounded by God’s words and God’s people and then discovered the real meaning of love. And this film is a result.
