Learn moreThis book of poems is the fruit of many years of struggle and difficulties. It is the beginning of seeing life lived from a deeper place of singleness of heart, life in union with Christ. “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is sound, (simple, single) your whole body will be full of light, ( Matthew 6:22).
If you suffer the feelings and emotions of separation with all the anxiety and fears that accompany that alienation, (that all have experienced), then read along and experience the same fear, anguish, comfort, joy and wonder the author felt that inspired him to write these poems. The psalmist says, “For thou art great and doest wondrous things, thou alone are God. Teach me thy way, O Lord, that I may walk in the truth, unite my heart to fear the name, (Psalm 86:10-11). It is a wonderful experience to journey from the landscapes of a divided heart to those of a united one. Come outdoors for a walk!
The author has a B.A. in Biblical studies and a minor in Biblical languages. He has over 25 years of church life involvement in churches in Southern California and the Willamette Valley in Oregon. He has long contended with the frustrations and tensions of incorporating his love and service of God with his job responsibilities and the challenging dynamics in personal relationships. In recent years, out of necessity, the author has discovered and incorporated contemplative prayer to navigate these life stresses and deeper experience the love and presence of God. He and his wife live in Salem and have six adult children.
