The Heart of God

Poems about Jesus

By Robert Street

In The Heart of God, every poem says something about Jesus and frequently says something about us too. By bringing to life some encounters and events surrounding the first Easter, the verses explore the heart of God in discerning and challenging ways. They also show how the kind of issues faced by Jesus are still with us today.

As well as using the poems for personal daily reflection, sharing them with others in group discussion can give opportunity for further insights.

The Scripture on which each poem is based, and key Bible verses, are given to provide the background that inspired these thoughts.
