Here I write of life in a language permeated by fear... dreadfully suppressed memories of the child beaten by a drunken father, waiting for fate to forgive me. A carbon copy repeated in brutal patterns and destroying the faith of my family: my wife and two daughters. They bore the brunt of my alcoholic dependence, which ultimately resulted in divorce and alienation. This tormented man, when challenged about being drunk and abusive, plunged further into darkness... The lonely period without a word from them and then finally seeking help in rehabilitation... five years of sobriety leading to forgiveness and reconciliation... This book of verse is a visionary journey.

With the confession of several years of secrets, Daffy Gustavs life changed forever. As he leads others down an emotional path lined with heartfelt poems that detail the disbelief, pain, frustrations, and eventual healing that followed his divorce and estrangement from his children, Gustav shines a light on the unfortunate effects of heartache. Gustav, who one day came home from work and discovered an empty house, shares poetry that provide a realistic glimpse into what it is really like to experience the breakup of a marriage, to lose your children, to endure monumental financial challenges, to survive betrayal from other family members, to grapple with a variety of emotions that accompany such a life-shattering chain of events, and finally, to be guided to change. Through it all, Gustav provides inspiration to others that it is indeed possible to find hope, inner-peace, and love after suffering a personal tragedy. From Hell to Heaven, One Mans Journey shares introspective reflections from an honest man as he learns to survive lifes greatest heartaches and transform his anger into understanding love.

As the Bible indicates, our lives are a construction zone, for our bodies are temples of the divine Spirit. Formed initially in the image of God, human beings lost intimacy with God through corruption, rebellion, or neglect. In response, the divine Creator loves us back into relationship, providing means of grace to help restore us to wholeness, beginning with our body and continuing through our mind, soul, and spirit. As buildings need cleaning, maintenance, and ongoing care, so our inner temple needs spiritual stimulus, cleaning, and care. Rebuilding the Temple is the fourth book in Vande Kappelle's series on spirituality and the arts. Books in this series reinforce the essential principle underlying all authentic spirituality: "Go deep in any one place and you will meet the infinite aliveness that is God, for God is everywhere!" Whereas earlier books consider the connection of spirituality with creative arts such as poetry, film, music, theater, drama, dance, and modern literature, this volume takes readers on a journey through classic Christian literature, beginning with the Bible and continuing through inspirational works written by diverse spiritual mentors such as Augustine, Dante, Luther, Calvin, Teresa of Avila, George Fox, Blaise Pascal, Henri Nouwen, A. W. Tozer, John McLaren, John Shelby Spong, Richard Rohr, and Marcus Borg. Reading their works reminds us that Christian literature is most practical and inspirational when it takes a narrative approach to theology, interpreting the spiritual journey through the ongoing stories of people and communities rather than trying to capture timeless truths analytically or through rational argumentation. Like its companion texts, Wading on Water, Deep Splendor, and Deeper Splendor, this volume is useful for individual or group study. Each chapter concludes with questions suitable for discussion or reflection.

Man's heart is a divine gift from God which shall be examined upon his death. This has been disclosed to man as far back as 3,500 BCE in the Egyptian Book of the Dead. From literal evidence, the Chinese came from the Tower of Babel, Sumeria, present IRAQ and were monotheist. From other captivating information in the Old Testatment, and the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, The Chinese are related by blood to Abraham. The Tao Te Ching confirms the closeness between the New Testament and the Tao Te Ching between their relations. And Confusius wrote the moral laws and the Chinese practise them up to this day. My journey brought me through the ancient Chinese civilisation, Jesus Christ teachings up to the coming of the Holy Koran with the seal of God’s prophets in 633 AD. Cover picture: A Chinese Urn with an image of a Chinese mosque found in the Malacca Seas after 500 years. “He has written an interesting book on his search for God and meaning in his life. The story of how he became a Muslim is fascinating.” Professor Tommy Koh, Professor of Law, National University of Singapore “Mission Accomplished. A brilliantly chronicled autobiography of a Singapore lawyer, weaned from a childhood of eye-opening brushes with religious coexistence that step by step led to his embrace of a faith which friends – and foes alike – were caught unaware by its conviction. Tracing the roots of righteousness right down from ancient texts to modern interpretations, it is a scholarly penned chronology of his life-long desire to understand why mankind exist to do the right things. Jeffrey Low, His old Soccer mate, Ex-Straits Times Sportswriter “..... how Rugby as a ruffian’s game played by gentlemen, from which sport he made the lifelong friends; and his look at philosophy and religion, which have brought him to accept the Five Pillars of Islam. An essential read for those who wish to gain an insight on how multi-racial and religious Singapore play in the moulding of the modern Singapore persona!” Jen Shek Voon, Chartered Accountant MComm (Hons.) “Completed reading your book. I felt Qian Cheng (pious/sincere/modest) of your writings. Congratulations” Ust. Jamal Soe Thein, BA (Theology) Al Azhar Egypt and BA (Arabic Language) Rangoon, Burma

This history of literary Arabic describes the evolution of Arabic poetry and prose in the context of music, ritual performance, the arts and architecture. The thousands-of-years-old language is perhaps more highly developed and refined than any other on earth. This book focuses on what is unique about Arabic compared to other major languages of the world (Greek, Latin, Hebrew, English and Spanish) and how the distinct characteristics of Arabic took shape at various points in its history. The book provides a cultural background for understanding social and political institutions and religious beliefs--more influenced by the rhythms and depths of poetic language than other cultures--in the Middle East today.

Modernist poetry heralded a radical new aesthetic of experimentation, pioneering new verse forms and subjects, and changing the very notion of what it meant to be a poet. This volume examines T.S. Eliot, T.E. Hulme and Ezra Pound, three of the most influential figures of the modernist movement, and argues that we cannot dissociate their bold, inventive poetic forms from their profoundly engaged theories of social and political reform. Tracing the complex theoretical foundations of modernist poetics, Rebecca Beasley examines: the aesthetic modes and theories that formed a context for modernism the influence of contemporary philosophical movements the modernist critique of democracy the importance of the First World War modernism’s programmes for social reform. This volume offers invaluable insight into the modernist movement, as well as demonstrating the deep influence of the three poets on the shape and values of the discipline of English Literature itself. Theorists of Modernist Poetry is relevant not only to students of modernism, but to all those with an interest in why we study, teach, read and evaluate literature the way we do.

Faith, Hope and Poetry explores the poetic imagination as a way of knowing; a way of seeing reality more clearly. Presenting a series of critical appreciations of English poetry from Anglo-Saxon times to the present day, Malcolm Guite applies the insights of poetry to contemporary issues and the contribution poetry can make to our religious knowing and the way we 'do theology'. This book is not solely concerned with overtly religious poetry, but attends to the paradoxical ways in which the poetry of doubt and despair also enriches theology. Developing an original analysis and application of the poetic vision of Coleridge, Larkin and Seamus Heaney in the final chapters, Guite builds towards a substantial theology of imagination and provides unique insights into truth that complement and enrich more strictly rational ways of knowing. Readers of this book will return to their reading of poetry equipped with new insights and enthusiasm and will be challenged to integrate imaginative ways of knowing into their other academic and intellectual pursuits.
