“An inspiring read about victory, practical spirituality, and the life of faith, Wheat in the Winepress will invigorate your faith, stir your hope and bring wisdom to your life. I love Bob’s easy-reading style, that takes spiritual realities and powerful mysteries and makes them understandable to the every-day reader. Be ready to be transformed as you read!”
Jarrod Cooper, Senior Leader, Revive Church, Hull, England.

“Using vivid illustrations out of his own experiences from decades of following Jesus, Bob makes the Biblical story of Gideon come alive for today.”
Jeremy Simkins, leader of Christ Central churches (part of New Frontiers).

“Bob Has captured the atmosphere of the life of Gideon. It is as though he has climbed into the man’s heart and mind and pulled out descriptions, discoveries and revelations that are so relevant to our lives today. I would highly recommend this volume.”
Andrew Baker, founder, Make Way Ministries.

Wheat in the Winepress is an inspirational exploration of the work of God’s Spirit in the heart and life of the committed believer. Whilst author Bob Hext uses as his source the journey of Gideon – from the winepress to become a warrior – the book is equally rooted in his own inspirational journey. Spiritual truth on every page is made real in practical stories from Bob’s life as a school teacher, entrepreneur, prophet, father and husband. Bob is a radical and anyone called to radical sold-out discipleship should read this book. 
Graham Russell, Elder, Wildwood Church, Stafford.

This book brings the promises of the Bible to life, being full of practical examples that will help you to overcome challenges. I recommend this book to anyone who wants God to miraculously move in the circumstances they are facing. As you read this book, you will move into deeper relationship with Jesus Christ, and as you do that, you will be mightily blessed.
Anthony Wolseley-Wilmsen, founder, Childrens’ Aid.
