Sobre IBD

What was happening to our country? There were a lot of people just like me. We were faces in our windows, looking out, wondering what in the world was going on. We have some evil giants trying to stomp us down, and they are trying to turn our country into something we cannot accept. These giants were systematically forcing terrible things on the population to be accepted as normal and good. God is love but He is not just soft mushy quiet love. God has a temper, and He has displayed it in His word. The scolding poems (the face in the window poems) came to me in basically a complete form. To me they were a gift. I barely changed or corrected any of them. It is okay for us to use righteous indignation to fight what is wrong. We are not door mats for anyone to wipe their feet on. If someone is trying to walk all over you, pull yourself out from underneath them and knock them on their backsides. People change, God does not. God uses tough love for correction and teaching. God will show His wrath when He is angered. He displays His righteous indignation. He offers the greatest love imaginable. He offers mercy and grace. Also, He has a sense of humor. God has a wide range of emotions and so do we. People can only get so far away from God before He steps in to do some correcting. God loves America. God’s love is alive. God loves to hear from us, and He is saying, 'Where are you?'I love to write poems about God’s love for us and my love for Him.You can be one of the faces that belong to God. Keep your gospel armor on and always be willing to fight what is wrong. Now that is a good fight.

    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
