What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

“Cole Hartin’s poetry arises from the soul of a pastor-poet. This collection models a pastoral imagination reflecting on the great and the small, the eternal and the temporal. Too often today, pastors are trained to be technicians who easily lose a sense of wonder. Hartin’s poetry demonstrates a way of shepherding that is rooted in the art of pastoral ministry.”

—Joel Lawrence, president, Center for Pastor Theologians



“Cole Hartin’s poems deal with matters which lie at the heart of our lives: the joys and sorrows of the day to day and the struggles we have in aligning our faith with the demands of life. They are insightful and lead us to the deeper places of our soul.”

—David Edwards, Anglican metropolitan of the Ecclesiastical Province of Canada
