Download or read book Divine Inspiration written by Robert Atwan and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1998 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is by far the leading source of inspiration for Western literature, and in particular, the life of Jesus has drawn the attention of artists and writers throughout the ages. Now, in a volume of astonishing range and originality, Robert Atwan, George Dardess, and Peggy Rosenthal present 280 remarkable poems from world literature focusing on Jesus's life and teaching. Readers accustomed to the predictable inclusions of many anthologies will be surprised and delighted by the diversity of poets represented here, from Aquinas, Dante, de Guevara, Donne, and Sor Juana, to D.H. Lawrence, Gabriela Mistral, Wole Soyinka, Margaret Atwood, Gwendolyn Brooks, Czeslaw Milosz, and Leopold Senghor. Perhaps no other thematically organized anthology could have brought together writers as different as Jorge Luis Borges, Thomas Merton, Alice Walker, Rainer Maria Rilke, and Jack Kerouac. Indeed, simply to turn the page in Divine Inspiration is an adventure in itself. And in terms of form, style, modulations of tone and perspective, the variety here is as unparalleled as it is unpredictable. The editors of Divine Inspiration have done a masterful job of unifying this vast assortment of poems. Organized chronologically around the life of Jesus, the book is divided into nine sections--from Birth and Infancy, through Healings and Miracles, to the Resurrection-- and presents passages from the Gospels followed by the poems they inspired. This structure gives readers the dual pleasures of a strong narrative pull punctuated by moments of lyric intensity. Our familiarity with the life of Jesus is thus enlivened, deepened, and in some cases wholly transformed by the imaginative power of the poems. In the largest section of the book, on the Passion of Jesus, we find an array of poems by Anna Akhmatova, Antonio Machado, Thomas Hardy, Miguel de Unamuno, Charles Baudelaire, R.S. Thomas, Andrew Marvell, Frederico Garcia Lorca, and Denise Levertov, among others. To see the Passion of Jesus refracted through the lenses of such poets is to see it anew, or more vividly than before. And to encounter Chinese, Korean, Nigerian, Arab, Latin American, Scandinavian, Hungarian, and Greek poets alongside English, French, and German is a testimony both to the editors' devoted scholarship and to the power of Jesus's life to inspire great poetry across a spectrum of cultures and eras. An invaluable sourcebook for students, scholars, and general readers alike, Divine Inspiration should prove equally satisfying to readers with a strong interest in religion and to all lovers of poetry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With every great writer, there came an initial spark of inspiration. Often, this spark ignites a fire that has the potential of being a raging inferno. Such was the case of this book, From Glory to Glory, which took nearly four decades to write and compile. The initial spark came in 1967 and did not turn into a blazing fire until the year 2000. By then, the author realized that writing was a God-given talent and was a calling in his life. It was then that he fully embraced that truth. Listening

Download or read book Just Before I Say I Do written by D. E. Rollins and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of frank and sincere Christian poems might be described as a spiritual Bridget Jones diary! The poet expresses her intimate conflicts and concerns as she anticipates the eventual consummation of her marriage. Perhaps one of the main values of the collection is that it conveys a message for many young Christians (and older ones too-not just those preparing for marriage!) that the conflicts they experience are absolutely normal-and can be resolved and sanctified in so far as our dwelling place is not an earthly place but the Lord who is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. The poet expresses a roller-coaster of emotions as she comes to terms with the age-old conflict of the flesh versus the spirit, the urges of the flesh versus the disciplined life of the Christian, especially as she deals with the anguish where the object of her love is often aloof and inconstant.

Book excerpt: Dawn Escoto has always loved poetry. She grew up on ithearing readings as well as reading, memorizing, and writing poetry. Her mother taught her to appreciate the nineteenth-century American poets, especially Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. As an adult, Emily Dickinson became one of her favorites. But Escoto doesnt really copy any particular poet; instead, she studies techniques from various writers and has created her own voice. Poetry runs through her veins. All of her siblings, along with cousins on both sides of the family, write poetry. She has published three volumes of poems on endangered species, under the title Going, Going, Gone. Her journey as a poet began at age eight and has continued throughout her life. Since 1994 she has written over forty collections, with emphases on hymns; psalms set to music; words of encouragement; celebration of holidays and special occasions; synopses of sermons; tributes to heroes, family, and friends; endangered animals; flowers and birds; limericks; and more. This volume of poems contains examples from Garlands of Grace, Millennial Messages, Divine Sentiments, Then Sings My Soul, New Testament Psalms, New Wine, Old Wineskins, Childrens Choruses, and Tributes to Courage. It is her hope that these poems will draw you heavenward in worship of the One she exalts in her life and in her writings.

Download or read book Some of the Most Encouraging Poems for You written by Michelle Marie Richardson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-04-04 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all face some major and some minor challenges that may move us to seek Gods voice in it all. These challenges perhaps make us question our faith or become tempted to stop trying, stop following, or stop turning to or loving the Word of God, Jesus Christ. But once we earnestly seek, we do receive and come out better on the other side just because weve taken that step of faith, even though it may start out to be as small as a mustard seed. Furthermore, being unprepared for an oncoming difficulty can throw us off track and leave us shaken due to grief, discouragement, or temptation in the end. Resources such as the Bible and positive literature are a blessing, and when taken advantage of, they offer treasures and just what we need to get through this life and on to the next as conquerors, strong, bold, and fully equipped in the Lord. Moreover, getting along well with others and being good and faithful servants is something we can do to greatly improve our spiritual lives. So when there is no one else qualified to turn to without making matters worse or when no one else seems to say the right words, it is wise to tap into the various resources that can actually help without causing major setbacks. This book of simple, unsophisticated, easy to read poetry is one of those resources.
