About this listen
"Poetry, on the other hand, offers us deep riches of meaning with a remarkable economy of words. This was an art of wisdom often chosen by the mystics of the West and popularized by the hymnodists. In this sense, poetry - and particularly Christian poetry - continues to offer a counterpoint to the dry, wordy explanation that often stupefies the human spirit more than it edifies." From these lines, poet and author Peter Menkin, Obl Cam OSB, takes listeners on a contemplative and inspiring journey and adventure through his collection of meaningful poems, Seasons of Faith: Religious and Spiritual Poetry.
In this collection of contemplative poems, listeners will uncover a very old challenge to people in the 21st century - a challenge not unlike that penned by some favorite Anglican poets across the ages. Through these moving and distinctive original poems, some from contemporary work that also depict the poet's colorful character, they will find a blend of humor, personality, poignancy, spiritual reflection, and popular culture. Seasons of Faith: Religious and Spiritual Poetry captures listeners' senses and give them a reflective experience - allowing them to boost their spirit and inspire them to live a meaningful life.
Spiritually inspiring, filled with insights, and life altering, Seasons of Faith: Religious and Spiritual Poetry is engaging poetry that everyone will surely enjoy.
Peter Menkin, Obl Cam OSB has been writing poetry on a regular basis since 1999. His work is primarily religious and spiritual and originally sprung from the inspiration brought to him by contemplative prayer and regular Church worship. He was received as an Oblate of Immaculate Heart Hermitage, (New Camaldoli), Big Sur in 1995, and also studied theology when attending The School for Deacons, now located in Berkeley, California. He is a Benedictine.
