La poesía se podría definir como un instante privilegiado de conciencia que te acerca a la dimensión más profunda de la realidad. La obra poética del teólogo José Ignacio González Faus, inédita hasta el momento, evoca la belleza desde una mirada personal que recorre toda su vida e invita al lector a volver de una forma profunda y serena a la «poesía necesaria como el pan de cada día».

Life is full of love, but it is also full of loss. Like paper cuts to the heart, every big and seemingly insignificant loss-the loss of friendships, faith, dreams, health, community, and everything in between-grieves us more than we think it will, and often more than we let on. Why? Because they matter.
In this compassionate and deeply personal book, Rachel Marie Kang invites you to see and be seen in the midst of your sorrow, your suffering-your...

What makes one poem better than another? Do Christians have an obligation to strive for excellence in the arts? While orthodox Christians are generally quick to affirm the existence of absolute truth and absolute goodness, even many within the church fall prey to the postmodern delusion that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." This book argues that Christian doctrine in fact gives us a solid basis on which to make aesthetic judgments about poetry...

This three-part volume sounds out a cycle that delights in creation, despairs over evil, and longs for restoration. Tracing life's dualities, these poems press together faith and uncertainty, love and loss, dream and waking, depression and exuberance. Locating humanity between the immense and the slight, The Sky's Larger Frame explores the world as a construction site in which God both reveals and conceals the scaffolds of his presence.

We All Belong is a celebration of the worth and value of every life, which the poet offers as a bouquet to our Creator, who holds all of creation without exception in the divine embrace. The poems in this collection are but a minute reflection of the infinite love of the Maker for humanity.

The desert. Dry, barren, and dangerous. Disorienting, extreme, and raw. For many, a metaphor of life. For others, a metaphor of following Christ. Dashed hopes. Fear. Impending doom. So many threats in those plains.
But a surprise in those plains as well. Planes. So many planes. Planes of the human heart that are exposed to the elements. Planes of awareness. Perception. And with it, new perspectives. Perspectives that reveal the hope, purpose, and...

The purpose of this book is to bring together in one convenient volume some of the best devotional verse the English language affords, and thus to make available to present day Christians a rich spiritual heritage which the greater number of them for various reasons do not now enjoy. I have not hesitated to apply the term "mystical" to the material I have collected here, though I readily admit that fewer than half a dozen of the men and women who...

Anxiety and fear seek to prey on the damaged and create heavy burdens that scar the soul, being heartless and insensitive to the lost, unkempt, and broken spirited in a troubled, unwholesome world. However, they do not reign for eternity, as faith, resilience, and empowerment remain planted from within to help overcome pressing obstacles, regardless of how difficult they may be.
Peace in the Midst of the Storm primarily focuses on the beauty of positivity,...
