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.

The poems found between the covers of this book, furnish insight into the way God's Spirit permeates every facet of life. Too often we humans take things for granted, seeing only the worldly view and depending too much on our own wisdom. Personal wisdom is of great importance, but an attitude of complete self dependency robs us of the real riches attainable through the insight of faith. As you ponder the truths expressed here, you will begin to see, more than ever before, how very involved God is in every aspect of your life and you will feel a closeness to his spirit that has eluded you in the past. He cares about you personally, and has planned the universe to fulfill your every need. Let these poems open your mind to new and real possibilities. Your life will be stimulated and enriched as a result. * * * * * * * * * * AUTHOR BIO Veda Tohline has found writing poetry an excellent way of putting her faith into words and sharing it with others. She feels it is a spiritual gift which has helped her examine her own understanding of and relationship to God. This method of putting her convictions into word form began when, as a beginning school teacher, she was isolated from family and long-time friends and living in a small town one hundred miles from home and familiar surroundings. Gradually her gift evolved and became a method of communicating regularly with friends across the country. As her gift has become known, she has been asked to write celebrations of engagements, weddings, births, and even encouragement to share with incarcerated lawbreakers. Often she has no idea how to proceed, but once she applies her thoughts and asks God's guidance, even she is surprised by the outcome.

The poems are from GOD, using June Pierce-Hampton as the messenger. It is so amazing, once the title for the poem was established; the words flowed from GOD’s spirit through her spirit onto paper. June was amazed after writing the poetry of the effect it had on her and others she read them to. After writing the poems, she decided to try and reference the poems with the Kings James Version of the Bible; they all were there! Every poem could be related to a Book, Chapter and Verse. In some cases, there were more than one or two scriptures that corresponded to some of the poems. This is GOD sent, GOD given and received for GOD’s proposes! The poetry in this book is for uplifting and giving one hope, security and happiness by believing and trusting in our CREATOR, and HIS SON, JESUS. Thus, June decided to name the manuscript POETRY FROM CHRIST.

Are the pressures of life weighing you down? Were the decisions you made a result of those pressures and you're still disappointed? Have you considered your powerlessness is actually your powerfulness? Do you even know how wonderful you are? Guess what, you are an overcomer.

Living authentically while adding on experiences to birth testimonies of victory is a sure way of gaining inner peace. Through these poems, it is shown how one can receive as well as maintain the serenity of hope. Within these pages, you'll discover the following: How to identify the importance of a relationship with Christ How to speak life while experiencing challenges How to free yourself from unsustainable situations that cause disappointment A way to evaluate your actions and rectify any errors How to give true worship to a deserving God If you are a person who has lost joy and is trying to regain it, or if you have joy and trying to retain it, or maybe if you're just simply a lover of Christ and want to draw even closer to Him, then this book is for you.

This is the poetry of Bambi Rose and of a faith that multiplied along the pathway of life until, finally, at the end of her years she achieved the peace of God that passeth all understanding. It was a lifelong struggle to overcome the doubts and uncertainty which assail us all in our quest to believe in our personal salvation and acceptance by God. That she achieved her goal is beyond doubt. In the words of a dear friend and visionary she is now "dancing in the light". Her very early years were idyllic until, at the age of five, she lost her beloved and loving father. The distress engendered by such a hammer blow to a small child is beyond imagining and it's effects followed her for the rest of her life. Her saving grace was formed by a deep and abiding immersion in the influence of the Catholic Church with it's Fervent emphasis on obedience and of the potency of it's message of power and salvation through God. The last eighteen years of her life saw her challenged by cancer which attacked her on nine occasions in different ways, the last in both lungs. Her steadfast refusal to accept treatment by chemotherapy was testament to her faith in the compassion of God which was complete at her end. She went in happiness and joy.

Each poem is followed by an analytical reflection that explores the work and places it within the context of one or more Biblical passages.

Making Nothing Happen written by Gavin D'Costa and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2018-10-24 with Poetry categories.
Making Nothing Happen is a conversation between five poet-theologians who are broadly within the Christian tradition - Nicola Slee, Ruth Shelton, Mark Pryce, Eleanor Nesbitt and Gavin D'Costa. Together they form The Diviners - a group which has been meeting together for a number of years for poetry, and theological and literary reflection. Each poet offers an illuminating reflection on how they understand the relation between poetry and faith, rooting their reflections in their own writing, and illustrating discussion with a selection of their own poems. The poets open up issues for deeper exploration and reflection, including: the nature of creativity and the distinction between divine and human creation; the creative process as exploration, epiphany and revelation; the forging of identity through writing; ways in which the arts reflect, challenge and dialogue with faith, and faith can inform and challenge the arts; power and voice in poetry and faith; and ways in which race, gender and culture interact with and shape poetic and theological discourse. This book will be of interest to poets and theologians, to all who read poetry and are interested in the connections between literature and faith, to those seeking inspiration for preaching, liturgy and pastoral care, and to those committed to the practice and nurturing of a contemplative attitude to life in which profound attention and respect are offered to words and to the creative Word at work.
