Religious Poetry

Too often I've ridden down the wrong trail. Sometimes, because I didn’t know better. Occasionally, even when I did. Then one day a surprising thing happened. Without knowing why, I sat down and wrote the first draft of Dusty. The good Lord gave me the talent and the wanting to write. My desire is to have these stories help spread God’s Word. If nothing else, it is to share a story told well to those who will enjoy it.

After getting “vulnerable AF” on her 2021 book tour, Tank realized she was truly ready to move on from her first love. In The Thing About Falling, she writes about that experience as well as what followed—a period of shallow comfort, followed by a much deeper transformation. Organized in sections that follow the author from heartbreak to rebound to new love, the poetry that flows is an honest, witty, and effortlessly charming account of one woman’s journey back to herself.

Life is a story worth telling. It is should be filled with laughter and joy. But at times it is the opposite. Where do we turn and what do we do when things don't seem to go as expected, in this ever-changing world of ours? There's hope and light at the end of every tunnel. Could you hold on and cherish life for whatever it brings?

Um poderoso homem sofre perdas irreparáveis e torna-se um colecionador de lágrimas. Despedaçado, decide penetrar os porões de sua mente em busca da sociedade dos seus sonhos. "'Não é possível', pensei. Em vez de se prostrar diante de Deus, ele o chamou para um debate, e ninguém previa o que seria discutido. Depois desse episódio, ele deixou de ser um vendedor de sonhos e passou a ser um ousado semeador de ideias. E nós, após presenciarmos seu "debate", nunca mais seríamos os mesmos.

Durante nueve meses, Federico García Lorca vivió en Nueva York, alejado por primera vez de su país, de sus padres y amigos más íntimos. A lo largo de ese período, su poesía cambió radicalmente, oscureciéndose y dejando a un lado el folclorismo andaluz que tanto despreciaron Buñuel y Dalí. El resultado de esa etapa quedó recogido en Poeta en Nueva York, libro publicado cuatro años después de su muerte.

The centurion who speared Christ also guarded the tomb. When the body is missing, Pilate orders his arrest. He flees. The spear has special powers. An angel orders him to write a manuscript and hide it. He writes a second manuscript and hides it, before being captured by the Romans in Ephesus. He writes his final testimonial, then hides it along with the spear. After an earthquake in 2030, one of the manuscripts is found by two American archeologists. A hunt for the other manuscripts and the spear begins.

It is Yom Kippur, and the entire village - a town so poor there is nothing to steal and no one to steal it from - is praying in shul, observing the daylong fast. There is an out-of-town stranger with them - a rich visitor and a generous one too: He donates to the rabbi, the cantor, the shul, and the poorest of the town. So it is particularly shocking when, near the end of the service, the visitor suddenly discovers that the rest of the money he had with him has been stolen!
