Poems of the Gospel - Paperback

by Emmanuel Akande (Author)

This is a book of poems with 30 different poems inside, each providing an intellectual expression towards God. The journey started with me wanting to find a deeper connection with Him, and that led me to writing Challenges. After that, the inspiration to keep going took over and I developed a keen sense of pride and vulnerability to let God in and let Him take control. I believe I was led by the spirit and even when I wasn't sure, I would muster the courage to read my work to someone and their reactions would leave me stunned and speechless. The conversions that ensued after reading my poems drove me to publish this book and give it to the world in hopes that more conversations would ensue that'll hopefully lead and draw people to God, and to understand His love for us through the good and bad times. I want readers to think of this book like it has 30 different books in a single book. Though some poems are shorter than others, the desired effect is the impact it has on the reader to learn more scripture, to engage in conversation, or just a read to pass the time (hopefully gaining something along the way). As you read this book, may your life begin to express meaning towards whatever aspirations and desires that you may have, and you begin to see how God has always been constant throughout your life. Amen.
