Описание книги

For much of Christian history, pastors not only served as theologians and preachers, but also as poets and hymn writers. They ministered through their preaching and their poetry, their sermons and their songs–laboring to see God's truth planted not only in people's minds, but helping it find its way into their hearts and even onto their lips. They viewed such labors as an artistic and devotional tool of catechesis, one that has largely gone missing over the last few generations. But in this new collection of hymns and poems, Justin Wainscott recaptures that rich legacy of pastor-poets, providing God's people with theology that stirs and sings. Whether his poetry pertains to matters of common grace or saving grace, the mundane or the majestic, he gives readers an opportunity to lose themselves in wonder, love, and praise. And a book like this one couldn't come at a better time. In this age of distracted reading marked mainly by skimming and scanning, our souls need the kind of slow, deep reading that poetry rewards.

Отрывок из книги

Hymns & Poems

Justin Wainscott

.....

“Theology is art as much as it is science. This is especially true when the glory of our Triune God in his works of creation and redemption are celebrated through the medium of poetry. My friend and former pastor Justin Wainscott is a contemporary pastor-poet-theologian whom God has gifted to set sacred truths to moving verse. In doing so, Justin takes upon himself the mantle of Wesley and Dutton, of Rossetti and Donne, of Hopkins and Bradstreet. Whether his hymns and poems endure for centuries like the works of these great artist-theologians is a matter left to God’s providence. But for such a time as this, his poems and hymns are a gift to the church. Take up and read.”

—Nathan A. Finn
