Proverbs From The Poet Preacher
$23.73Just as the biblical book of Proverbs reveals the wisdom of an ancient king of Israel who dedicated himself to Jehovah in his youth, so too this book presents the wit and wisdom of a modern school teacher and church leader who committed himself to Christ at the age of seven. Compiled, arranged, and edited by Ralph Vile’s eldest son, John, this book contains some 2,500 of Ralph’s aphorisms from a fifty-year period, arranged under more than 200 topics covering the range of practical and spiritual living. A unique mix of universal truths and deeply held personal opinions from a man with a good sense of humor who loves both rhymes and paradoxical word plays, this book will amuse, challenge, and inspire general readers as it provides insights, illustrations, and reflections for pastors and speakers.

Singing In The Valley
$18.73Down in the valley of caring for my husband with Alzheimer’s, the Lord comforted and encouraged me with thoughts that He helped me put into poems. God used poetry as my therapy. Each rhyme was such a blessing to me at the time that I want to share them in hopes they will be a blessing to others. We all have valleys of one kind or another, but God has a song for us in every one. This book contains some of the songs God gave me.

We Are The Branches
$21.23Through poems, prayers and promises, We Are The Branches takes you on a personal, twenty-four-year journey beginning in misunderstanding, doubt, resistance and unbelief. It leads you through the tough process of being humbled by life and loss, and then, to the surprising, healing and liberating experience of meeting Jesus. The impact of that encounter leads you along as an intimate relationship is formed between Jesus and the author, as her perspective of Him and everything else changes, and how this new way of seeing affects her marriage, family, past issues and even daily problem solving. You will be inspired as she shares the new meaning and purpose in her life while shifting from the world’s view to God’s way of seeing everything. You will get the feeling, at times, that you are witnessing intimate conversations between God and one of His children, as each poem is followed by God’s own words. This book is infused with challenges to any unbelieving reader to open their hearts and minds to the one thing they have been conditioned against, while it poignantly describes the very essence of what it is like to be truly free.

Climbing Higher : A Life In Poetry
$20.61Real life poetry goes beyond niceties. The spoken word is “supposed” to take on defining times. The poetry landscape gives meaning where meaning has been lost, emotion to callousness, encouragement to discouragement, life to death and – even, at times, death to what is only an illusion of life. We hurt, laugh and cry, mess up but get back up again. In today’s “reality” we must be real. We are victorious ONLY as we press through.

Whispers To The Heart
$27.48A beautiful illustration of repentance. A woman with a past finds her way to Jesus’ feet and collapses in spite of all the obstacles and hurdles that have been laid before her. This is a woman on a misson. Judgments, labels, past hurts and sins do not stand in her way. She latches onto Christ’s unconditional love and forgiveness. She becomes broken. A beautiful brokenness that sees joy and hope in the midst of suffering and pain. A brokenness that can see Jesus Christ reaching out a hand of love and forgiveness through the tears in her eyes. She finds a Jesus that will love her right where she is at. The woman looked at as a Sinner rises up, no longer to be looked at as the Sinful Woman she once was but as the woman God intended her to be. She becomes Victorious.

Waters Under The Earth
$20.00The London Times LS described Robert Siegel’s poetry as “unpretentious versatility” like “returning to the mainland after a tour of the islands.” In this latest collection of poems, Siegel brings his remarkable range and technical mastery to bear on the mysteries of creation-wolves, slugs, moles, fireworks, mowing-all through a haunting a weave of mythical themes.

Tumbling Grounds
$27.48Tumbling Grounds touches deeply on the joy and grief inherent in the drama of human existence. It is a collection that will make your mind soar and your heart sing, and subsequently bring tears of joy to your eyes. This is poetry at its best: a rich literary diet for the soul, the spirit, and the body. Take a bite-it will be worth it. “I have been both fortunate and privileged to have edited this work. Dr. Aku’s imagery is extraordinary, and his subject matter ranges from a simple leaf, floating downward towards the ground, to the maelstrom of emotional conflict. “It has been most gratifying. I wish to thank Dr. Aku for the opportunity to have gotten a glimpse into his vision of the world, of life, of love, and of morality. His expressions have, at different times, left me breathless, smiling, or laughing out loud. This truly is an outstanding collection of poetry.” -Mario Lew
