A literature professor shows how learning to read and love poetry can increase our understanding of the biblical text, helping us learn to read and love God's Word.
Christianity Today 2022 Book Award of Merit (Beautiful Orthodoxy)
Many Christians view the Bible as an instruction manual. While the Bible does provide instruction, it can also captivate, comfort, delight, shock, and inspire. In short, it elicits emotion--just like poetry. By learning to read and love poetry, says literature professor Matthew Mullins, readers can increase their understanding of the biblical text and learn to love God''s Word more. Each chapter includes exercises and questions designed to help readers put the book''s principles and practices into action.
