What inspires us? What is the source of our joy, peace, wisdom and happiness? No matter who we are, where we are from, our religious beliefs, or how we identify ourselves, there is one thing that unites us: our belief and relationship in a Higher Power. What we call this power is as varied as we are. Whether it is God, Jehovah, Allah, Yahweh and the like, it is our need for a spiritual foundation that connects us. Like a finely woven thread in an elaborate tapestry, we are united purely on that basis, creating a beautiful image of a kind of solidarity, if we take the time to recognize it. In this intimate collection of poems, you will see this in action, as poets from all walks of life, hailing from both the near and the far, have allowed us to peek inside the deepest parts of themselves. With beautiful prose and rhyme, you will enjoy both the diversity of expression, and the connection of our love of the Divine that sustains us all.

Our Father, help us grow in understanding of your great love for us. May our thoughts, our words, and our actions every day express this love, wherever it may be. God, be merciful to us and bless us, look on us with kindness, so that the whole world may know your will, so that all nations may know your salvation. May all the people praise you, O God. We pray in Jesus’s name. Amen.

Thomas Gardner artistically describes Jesus--"the Word made flesh"--as a poem penned by God for the world, and John--author of the Fourth Gospel--as the poem's interpreter. John's structural patterns, repetitions, and narrative interventions invite readers to experience for themselves the beauty of the divine poem. John in the Company of Poets deepens this invitation by re-imagining the biblical text through the eyes of such artists as Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Wendell Berry, and T. S. Eliot, offering a literary reading of the Gospel based upon their powerful poetic replies. Poets are our best readers, contends Gardner, and his deft analysis forges a fresh path into the issues and tensions of John's Gospel.

This book of poetry is an opportunity to search for meaning in the Gospel of St. Matthew and a way to explore your soul. St. Mathew’s Gospel is a rich and fertile field producing abundant insights into life and the human condition. These poems cultivate this wisdom and translate it into poetry, amplifying its meaning and adding contemporary context and color. Once engaged in the poetic, the reader is offered additional insights generated by their own excited imagination. To aid the imagination, I have added an original abstract painting to each poem to enhance the experience. This experience of the Holy can be a path into the soul. Deep at the bottom of each of us is that spark of eternity that can only be ignited by the gift of faith. It is my hope that these poems will encourage the reader to examine that divine mystery that is planted deep within us by the very Word of God.

Can an understanding of the poetics of the Gospels, together with a reading of poetry inspired by them, make the homily an art form as compelling as a poetry performance? In Preaching the Poetry of the Gospels, Elizabeth Michael Boyle, O.P., offers a preaching guide to the Sunday Lectionary using the insights of poets to enliven and elicit more powerful homilies. Preaching the Poetry of the Gospels demonstrates that not only the Fourth Gospel but also the Synoptics can be read with special understanding when they are interpreted as narrative poetry. For each Sunday, from the first Sunday in Advent through Trinity Sunday, the author offers a poet's reflection on the literary devices in the liturgical texts, and a gathering of poems about the gospel event. Chapters are "Incarnation: Advent to Epiphany, " "Redemption: Ash Wednesday through Holy Week, " "Resurrection: The Sundays of Easter, " "Transformation: Ascension to Trinity Sunday, " and "Reclaiming the Poetry of Ordinary Time."

The Gospel of Matthew contains poems by Jesus, John the Baptist, the Angel of the Lord, as well as other individuals in the Gospel. Jesus creates several poems in the Gospel of Matthew. Chief among these poems is the Lord's Prayer. The Lord's Prayer incorporates an amazing series of rhymes based on the Hebrew word for "Forgive." The verses immediately before and after the Lord's Prayer contain a series of rhymes based on the Hebrew word for "Reward." The entire poetic structure is composed of three stanzas. The first and last stanzas utilize a rhyming wordplay for "Reward" that brackets the rhyming wordplay in the middle stanza for "Forgive." The transitions in rhyme match the transitions in conceptualization in the passage.Jesus also creates a poem using performance art in the passage concerning the fig tree in Matthew 21:19. The Hebrew word for fig tree is spelled the same as the Hebrew word used in Judges 14:4 for "occasion [ground of quarrel]." Jesus uses performance art to create an implied wordplay involving the double entendre for "fig tree/occasion [ground of quarrel]." Jesus' actions obviously depict a quarrel with the fig tree yet the word "Quarrel" never appears in the verse. On a literary and media basis this is the highest form of literary connection possible where the poet creates portions of the poem through their actions and not only by their words. This passage is one of the oldest historical examples of performance poetry. John the Baptist creates a poem during his dialogue with the Pharisees in Matthew 3:7-9. His poem is comprises of three rhyming couplets that form an AABCBC rhyme scheme. The first rhyming couplet is based on the Hebrew word for "Pharisee" and the Hebrew term for "Bearing Fruit." This rhyming couplet also appears in several passages in the Gospel of Matthew as part of Jesus' dialogue with the Pharisees. The second couplet utilizes wordplay between Hebraic terms for "God" and "Raise Up." This particular wordplay reappears near the end of the Gospel of Matthew as part of the narrative for the resurrection. Thus this rhyming couplet from John the Baptist's dialogue with the Pharisees foreshadows Jesus' resurrection. The third couplet employs a wordplay between the Hebrew words for "Son" and "Stone." This is the most prevalent wordplay in the Gospel of Matthew and appears in many passages including The Temptation, The Sermon on the Mount, The Confession of Peter, The Olivet Discourse, and The Passion. The Angel of the Lord creates a portion of a poem concerning The Nativity in Matthew 1:18-25. The angel contributes three rhyming couplets. The first couplet is a wordplay on the Hebrew words for "Conceived" and "Holy Spirit." The second couplet is the well known Hebrew rhyme between "Jesus" and "Save." This couplet reappears during the crucifixion where the rhyme adds dramatic tension to the events at the cross. The third couplet is between the Hebrew words for "People" and "Sins." This particular rhyme is notable since it expands the rhyme from the Old Testament passage from Isaiah that is quoted immediately afterwards which includes the words "Virgin," "Immanuel," and "God With Us."

"The Gospel According to B." is a queer autobiography of Jesus of Nazareth's life. A series of persona poems both in Jesus's voice and in the voices of those he impacted, "The Gospel According to B." delivers a queer account of Jesus's early life and times, from his childhood to young adulthood, periods curiously omitted in canonical Gospels. Combining midrashic, gnostic, and queer thought, the poems ditch heteronormative assumptions about Jesus's experience, sensibilities, and era and imaginatively insert new, and especially queer, angles to biblical stories. Though the collection draws from a Judeo-Christian tradition, its appeal is broad regardless of one's spiritual, religious, or atheistic orientation. The poems unlock a queer dimension to both spiritual experience and biblical history and throw open surprising revelations about the nature of the sacred.

The words of Jesus Christ are restored to their original poetic form in this extraordinary volume. Jesus Christ, whose teachings have been on the lips of millions for two millennia, is revealed here as one of the greatest poets of all time. What happened to deafen us to the poetic nature of his words? In migrating from Aramaic speech into written Greek translation, and later into English translation, the lyrics got locked up as prose. In The Poems of Jesus Christ Willis Barnstone unveils the essential poetry of the Gospels by taking the direct speech of Jesus from Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John, and lineating and titling Jesus’s words as individual poems. Jesus’s poems are wisdom lyrics and narrative parables, rich with garden, animal, and nature imagery. Austere and poignant, they carry the totality of the Gospels’ message through the intensity of a single voice––the Gospel of Jesus.
