Sam Bowman has been finding solace in nature all his life. He is an expert birder and an avid gardener. In his book, My Birding Adventures with God , he has invited the reader into his private joy of seeing and hearing birds. He finds spiritual fulfillment out in nature, with one-on-one conversations with God... Birders will appreciate this book. --Dwight Lammon, Birding Class Instructor for Olli at UA Having experienced the spiritual dimensions of birding myself, I found this delightful little book inspiring and affirming. Sam's discovery of God's plans for him through birding is heartfelt. Local birders will especially appreciate his tips on birding hot spots near Tuscaloosa. --Mary Burke, Birder If you are a birder you may recall that early bewilderment and hunger for knowledge and guidance about the local birds in your area and the best places to find them. I am so grateful to have had the pleasure and good fortune of meeting Sam Bowman on one of my early birding outings, and to discover his delightful book of heartwarming and often humorous stories. I have gained so much from his mentor-ship, not only from reading of his adventures, but also by having the chance to know and bird with such a kind, creative and generous soul. --Becky Daly, Birder A delightful mixture of Sam's life and his birding avocation. It provides insight into the world of birding, and Sam's enthusiasm is contagious. Written from the heart. --Kenneth B. Melvin, Author My Birding Adventures with God is an interesting combination of a man's extremely open memoir related to his early and mid-life emotional trials and the ways he meets these, his on-going awe of the ways his religion interfaces with his life experiences, and in particular, how these manifest themselves through his birding adventures. --Carolyn Breckinridge, Author A lovely combination of memoir, nature observations, and reflections on the divine, My Birding Adventures with God is engaging, readable, and uplifting. The author is honest about disappointments and disillusionment as well as joys and fulfillment. The book describes his journey to healing and forgiveness and peace--and becoming the hoped-for naturalist that he longed to be from childhood... Highly recommended for those who find God in nature--or would like to learn how. --Nancy Campbell I liked this book very much for the easy flow of the writing. I am a truly amateur birder so I learned many bird facts I didn't know. I enjoyed how he incorporated his love for God all throughout! --Marjorie S. Williams I just finished Sam's book, My Birding Adventures with God. I found it to be well written and very interesting. I loved how God always gave Sam the desires of his heart, even ones Sam did not know he had. It was very encouraging and uplifting --Linda Barry I have just finished Sam Bowman's book and enjoyed it very much. I was especially touched by the way God interacted with Sam during his birding adventures and taught Sam how much he was loved. --Janie Ray
