Synopsis

A book of poems that wrestles with salvation, judgment, and the fate of rich and poor.

This collection centers on big questions about heaven, hell, and how people are judged. It mixs longer poems with shorter pieces and even includes a section attributed to a different author, all written in plain, direct language that reads like a spoken sermon in verse. What you’ll experience

  • Poems that challenge ideas about universal salvation and explore outcomes for both the righteous and the condemned.
  • Vivid scenes drawn from biblical and historical settings, presented in straightforward rhyme and rhythm.
  • A contrast between bold critique and hopeful faith, accessible to readers seeking spiritual reflection.
  • A glimpse into a historical perspective on salvation, judgment, and the fate of wealth and power.
Ideal for readers of religious poetry, those curious about debates on universalism, and anyone exploring how poetry can wrestle with deep spiritual questions.
