Infos

The author/poet is pushing 70, and over that time he has learned a lot about social injustice, religious hypocrisy, emotional struggles and spiritual revelation. One or more of these poems deal with such themes. These "e;rhymes"e; are rather old fashioned in their meter and lyrical structure (more like 17th and 18th century poetry, in other words), but they are easy to read and understand. "e;Warts and All: A History of the Christian Church"e; chronicles the highs and considerable lows of this religion that continues to "e;hang around"e; after 2,000 years. By far the longest of the poems, it was written to be both humorous and educational. In truth, there should be something here for just about everybody. The purpose of writing these was to address skepticism and instill hope, a suitable pastime for a retired Christian pastor in a mainline Protestant denomination. Enjoy!
