When author Leah Vintila and her husband, Keith, faced infertility firsthand, they turned to their faith and were left breathless with the unexpected reality of God's purpose and plans for their family.

As a result, Leah wrote The Seed Within as an uplifting and inspirational guide to the powerful scriptures in the Bible that relate to growth. Now in its second printing, The Seed Within has been updated for all who are seeking to grow spiritually to a state of abundant fruitfulness. Through this book, individuals will be taken on a journey through scripture and life application tools to help them discover the overflowing fruitfulness that God has planned for each of our lives.

As part of this interactive bible study, individuals and small groups are led on a path of achieving the spiritual wellness needed to live life to the fullest in Christ. The study is designed to be not only used as part of a formal class, but is formatted to allow for individuals to complete the study individually at home with God and their Bible.

With this study, participants will be led to understand the many biblical principles that lead to healthy growth. The focused topics in this book include the need for:

• Fertile soil which is rich in faith, hope, and trust as the foundation for life
• Seeds planted by God according to His sovereign plan
• Living water as a vital component of growth to help grow God's seed
• Abundant light to illuminate the path to abundant fruitfulness
• Removal of substances that seek to harm or limit spiritual growth
• The spiritual harvest of overflowing fruitfulness resulting from the partnership with God as the Master Gardener.

Leah Vintila has been a registered nurse for more than twenty-five years, during which time she surrendered her heart to ministry and writing. It was through her childbearing difficulties that she felt called to come alongside others to encourage them through a bible study tailored to meet their individual needs. Since that time, God has broadened her focus and she is now a bible teacher and speaker for anyone seeking spiritual growth. Leah and her husband, Keith, live in Texas with their three children. She currently attends Liberty University Seminary where she is actively pursuing a Masters Degree in Theological Studies.
