Second Thoughts

Second Thoughts consists of five previously published essays that have been brought together for the first time: "Second-Hand Things," "The Second Crop," "Second Fiddles," "Our Second Wind" and "Second Thoughts." F. W. Boreham draws profound meaning from each of these "second" themes. This is a great introduction to the writings of F. W. Boreham. It starts with what he means to Ravi Zacharias. It also includes the outstanding essay, "The Second Crop." It uses a delightful story to illustrate an obscure biblical text about possessing your possessions. The idea is that our first crop comes with acquiring something. The second crop comes when one fully enters into it and learns how to use it. It's one thing to own a piano. It's quite another to actually learn how to play it. This essay alone makes the book worthwhile, but each one has its nuggets of truth that Boreham unearths in his typical warm manner.
