Beyond the Sky and Sea
$16.99
Writing Beyond the Sky and Sea has been an incredible journey…painting pictures of life and the world around us through the art form of poetry. During the writing of this collection of poetry, there was, as T.S. Eliot once wrote, “time… for a hundred visions and revisions…,” until, eventually, I simply had to let what will be…be. I hope that this book will not only be captivating and inspirational, but that it will further my vision of making poetry more enjoyable and fascinating for people today. In this compelling collection of new poetry, I’ve drawn from the inspiration of the natural world, scenes by the ocean, biblical narratives, love, and the moments and memories of life to write a book that I believe will resonate with all types of readers. Beyond the Sky and Sea features many memorable poems, such as “Beyond the Sands of Time,” “Cancun,” “Flights of Seagulls,” “Now, Somehow,” and “Visions,” as well as a variety of poetic forms (like narratives, sonnets, dizain poems, and Eastern poetry). I have also included “Obscured View, Pt. 2” and “pool, pt. 2,” which are sequels to poems from my last book, Reflections on the Water. I’d like to express immense gratitude to all of my family, friends, my kids, and my wife, Stephanie, for all of your love and support. I’d also like to send special thanks to Ruth O’Neil. Thanks to everyone who has picked up a copy of any of my books. Most of all, thanks to God for His grace and continued inspiration to write and publish books.

Prayer
$18.00Renowned pastor and New York Times bestselling author of The Songs of Jesus Timothy Keller explores the power of prayer.
Christians are taught in their churches and schools that prayer is the most powerful way to experience God. But few receive instruction or guidance in how to make prayer genuinely meaningful. In Prayer, renowned pastor Timothy Keller delves into the many facets of this everyday act.
With his trademark insights and energy, Keller offers biblical guidance as well as specific prayers for certain situations, such as dealing with grief, loss, love, and forgiveness. He discusses ways to make prayers more personal and powerful, and how to establish a practice of prayer that works for each reader.
Dr. Keller’s previous books have sold more than one million copies. His Redeemer Presbyterian Church is not only a major presence in his home base of New York, it has also helped to launch more than two hundred fifty other churches in forty-eight cities around the world. His teachings have already helped millions, the majority of whom pray regularly. And with Prayer, he’ll show them how to find a deeper connection with God.
