Publisher's Synopsis
If you love words and you love God, this book is for you. Master poet Charles Brown will surprise you with words and turns of phrase that are heartfelt, meaningful, worshipful, and sometimes humorous.
But these poems are much more than just words - they are worshipful, moving, and provide a depth of understanding and insight that anyone can learn from.
Come find a quiet place and sit by the lantern's light. In the stillness of the moment, listen with your heart and let these refreshing words bathe your soul. Read with anticipation, knowing that God often uses ordinary thoughts and expressions to reveal extraordinary things He may want to do in and through your life. Experience a recreation, a renewal, a rejuvenation in your walk with the Savior. Or perhaps, begin that walk for the first time in your life.

"Charlie's words capture the imagination and inspire the heart. His words sparkle with a simplicity that can only be forged through a heart and mind that consistently engage God in the complexities and mysteries of life. When I read what Charlie writes, I lift my eyes from preoccupation with the minutiae of my own world and reorient my vision on God; I find hope for the journey."
-Tom Allen, Regional Director, Southern California InterVarsity Christian Fellowship
