"Come into the holy place, where every whisper is praise..."
This book was born in the small, unremarkable moments of a college student's life, where quiet mornings and warm coffee on a snowy walk across campus and unexpected glimpses of beauty stirred a longing to meet God in the everyday.
Through the form of daily poems for the ordinary, faith and creation meet and mingle, sorrow gives way to hope, and the mundane becomes a threshold upon which we encounter the sacred stillness at the heart of things. Some poems lift the spirit, while others stare pointedly into the face of heartache. Yet as a whole, each poem strains toward the God who speaks not in thunder, but in a gentle breeze.
Songs from the Stillness is a companion for every season--a hymnal of thanks when the world is right and a friend in lament when all hope seems lost. In the very stillness between lines, may you find the quiet places where the Kingdom shimmers at the edges of the everyday, and where, if we choose to listen, we might catch a glimpse of the King who promises to make all things new.
