Overview

This poetry collection from Christian philosopher and theologian Jesse Hamilton extols the glory of nature, explores the limits of human experience and the expanse of faith, and examines all things philosophical and mundane, while employing poetic styles familiar and foreign. At times liturgical and mystical, sacrosanct and secular, joyful and despairing, yet inevitably inhabiting the true and the beautiful, this collection is sure to move, challenge, and inspire both the experienced reader of poetry and the novice, both the faithful and the seeking.

"""These poems help us see the world as it is--a place where God creates and where God's image-bearers make (and sometimes break). As only the poems of a philosopher could, they contemplate man's selfish destruction of nature and ignorant practices of injustice. But they also delight in word play, in sarcasm, and in romantic love. This collection celebrates the smallest things in light of the God who rules."" --Jennifer Phifer Strange, poet and former lecturer in English, Centenary College of Louisiana"
