Product Overview
Poems about Jesus by Robert Street.
Finding the heart of Jesus in the days that surrounded his crucifixion and resurrection.
In The Heart of God, every poem says something about Jesus and frequently says something about us too. By bringing to life some encounters and events surrounding the first Easter, the verses explore the heart of God in discerning and challenging ways. They also show how the kind of issues faced by Jesus are still with us today.
As well as using the poems for personal daily reflection, sharing them with others in group discussion can give opportunity for further insights.
The Scripture on which each poem is based, and key Bible verses, are given to provide the background that inspired these thoughts.
Robert Street became a Salvation Army officer in 1969. Since then his appointments have included service as a corps officer, divisional commander, editor and editor-in- chief, principal of William Booth College United Kingdom, and chair and vice chair of the International Doctrine Council. His books are written with the aim of making Christian faith clear and appealing. These poems have the same purpose.
