It has been said that poetry is the art of naming things properly. Life, Death, And Resurrection is a book of poetry that is the fruition of the authors journey into monasticism, a journey which seemingly leads away from the world, but which is actually a rushing into reality; it is a journey to find the ultimate meaning of ones own existence, the ultimate meaning of life, and the name that God Himself gives to each one of us. This is a book about one souls search for God, and what that soul finds in this pursuit: life, death, and resurrectionGods own poem He hides within every aspect of our lives. In these poems we find that ultimately it is the journey that will define who we are in the end, and it is the Cross that will show us how to live this journey; we will find our truest self, our true name, only in our love for God and neighbor. As one poem reads: God comes to us in many ways In vision and mystery In the hand to be held The burden to be born The scars to be felt Which are our prisons to be shorn.
