The words of these poems will comfort, uplift, encourage, and bring peace to those who are seeking reassurance and want to strengthen their faith in Jesus Christ. Powerfully relevant to the struggles and challenges faced by readers, the poems cover topics such as the struggle with sin, caring for the poor and marginalized, persevering through fear and doubt, and walking with grief.
