Anoint This Threshold
What do we do when the world feels like it’s unraveling?
When anger rises, when grief lingers, when love feels fragile—what words can carry us through?
In Anoint Our Threshold, John Roedel—bestselling poet, storyteller, and retreat leader—offers a collection of blessings, litanies, and small prayers for messy, beautiful, ordinary lives. These pages aren’t polished sermons or tidy answers. They are handholds for weary hearts, simple refrains to repeat out loud until hope takes root again.
With humor, honesty, and unflinching tenderness, Roedel writes blessings for the sleepless, the angry, the grieving, the doubting, and the hopeful. His words invite us to step to the threshold of our own lives and discover that—despite the chaos—we are still held, still connected, and still capable of blessing one another.
This is not a book of dogma. It is a book for anyone standing at the edge of change, longing for language to carry them forward.
