Named as a 2020 Book of the Year by The Times Literary Supplement Survival Is a Style, Christian Wiman’s first collection of new poems in six years, may be his best book yet. His many readers will recognize the musical and formal variety, the voice that can be tender and funny, credibly mystical and savagely skeptical. But there are many new notes in this collection as well, including a moving elegy to the poet’s father, sharp observations and distillations of modern American life, and rangy poems that merge and juxtapose different modes of speech and thought. The cumulative effect is extraordinary. Reading Survival Is a Style, one has the sense one is encountering work that will become a permanent part of American literature.

Wise thoughts of spirit to create a foundation, Staying with a spirit to the Lords relation, For all with spirit, theres a master plan Ken Barker Ken Barker considers himself a messenger of the Lord. With divine assistance, Barker shares a compilation of poetry that sheds light on sin, provides hope that the world can become a better place, and helps the spiritually lost find Jesus Christ and accept him as their Savior. Barkers poems explore a variety of Christian-themed topics that encourage others to embrace the power of the Lord, confess their sins, find a church, perform good deeds, and loyally follow the commandments. In his reflections, Barker shares lyrical interpretations of well-known biblical stories while gently reminding us of Gods presence in all of our lives through prayer, faith, and fear of evil. Christian and Religious Poems shares inspirational verse that highlights the importance of living in Gods trust and inspires the world to come together in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

In this, my first published book, I have taken some eighty-six poems from more than three hundred I have written over nearly fifty years. Some express a simple faith in God the Father, some give praises to Jesus, some focus on biblical events and people, and some are what I call the opposite of the parables of Jesus. Instead of comparing an earthly situation with a heavenly situation, as Jesus did, I contrast the two. Some good examples are “Scars,” “God Will Never Leave Us,” and “You Can Count on Me.” Finally, I have included poems about family relationships, including mothers, fathers, and daughters. If you are a Christian, I hope this book will bless you; if you don’t know Jesus as your Savior, it is my prayer that God will use this book to show you one simple truth that Jesus loves you.
