Time Text
I'm excited to tell you that today is the publication day of my new book, The Truth and Beauty, How the Lives and Works of England's Greatest Poets Point the Way to a Deeper Understanding of the Words of Jesus.
You don't have to love poetry or even know about poetry to read this book.
It really is the story of my personal attempt to get to know Jesus better, to get to know what he saw, to see what he saw in the world, and also to know what he wants from my life.
The lives of these poets, the thoughts of these poets who lived in a time very much like ours illuminate the words of Christ, and Christ's words illuminate the beauty of the world.
This is a book that made my life better.
I hope it will do the same for you.
The Truth and Beauty, how the lives and works of England's greatest poets point the way to a deeper understanding of the words of Jesus.
