Really enjoyed reading these poems as a daily meditation- the author's honesty, appreciation of nature, and how he weaves so much truth into each poem truly spoke to me. Will definitely be re reading them in the future.

I encountered the writing of Gideon Heugh through the YouVersion Bible app - he is a writer for TearFund, and they had a couple of Bible studies that a friend and I worked through. This was a delightful book to read. Gideon is an observer of the world and it shows in his poems. He's also vulnerable enough to share his struggles. I enjoyed it very much.
