PILGRIM JOURNEYS

This book invites the reader to voyage with Christ, a poetic exploration of the Holy Trinity moving amid the ‘otherness of life’ around us.  A voyage seeking ways to reorient this Anthropocentric Age which has lost inter-connectedness to creation and communion with our Triune God. This voyage has no neat traceable pattern, no reliance on predicted coordinates of knowledge. This is a Celtic voyage, pilgrim journeys led by the Holy Spirit to reorient our Anthropocentric Age to the Tree of Life. It is an unfolding glimpse of the pathos and love of God who soars on the wings of the wind.

SLOW WISDOM

A FORGOTTEN VIRTUE

Slow wisdom – a forgotten virtue: The everyday relatedness towards others steeped in restorative grace and justice. Craig Roberts applies an ancient lens of “Slow Wisdom” to the institutional landscape that underpins Aotearoa New Zealand. The poet contemplates the engrained hardness of heart by leaders and their followers which pervades against slow wisdom.

…Out of wounded histories,
fractious neighbourhoods, 
trust restored in fiery places…
