Christian Poet
New poetic message of faith every Monday.
Poet's Statement
In August 2022 I wrote a love poem to my soulmate and best friend, Brigitte. From there the Holy Spirit led me on a journey of writing love poems to God. These became my Poetic Messages of Faith.
This website is an expression of my love and appreciation to God. I want to make the poems available to whomever God may have in mind. I also want to thank Portland Seminary with these poems.
Portland Seminary was the catalyst in my life that drew me closer to God than ever before. The theological education I received was invaluable in helping me to see more clearly the absolute truth in Christianity. I also owe my Portland Seminary education to the creation of friendships that have been life changing.

POETIC MESSAGES
OF FAITH
Don’t blame the messages for the messengers poetic mistakes
Take what good you may see--Forgive the man who tried to be
I have tried to follow the WAY—I stumbled and fell
I have not done that well
When I die, I hope to hear our good Lord say—
For the talent you were given you are forgiven
