Book Description
T.S. Eliot is widely considered the most important and most influential poet of the 20th century. Many consider Four Quartets to be the finest of his poems and his greatest achievement. In this masterful journey into the beauties and depths of Eliot's masterpiece, the bestselling author, professor and critic Thomas Howard unravels the complexities of the sublime poem with such adept adroitness that even its most difficult passages spring to life. During his long years as a professor teaching English and Literature, Howard taught this poem often, and developed what he calls "a reading" approach to the concepts of this masterpiee to render its meaning more lucid for the reader. Therefore, this is not a "scholarly" work, but rather the brilliant insights of a master teacher and writer whose understanding of this profound poem and his deep love for the writing of Eliot are shared here for the great benefit of the reader.

Book Description
Descending Like a Dove is the story of an exodus out of Evangelical Christianity and a wilderness adventure in search of Something more. The promised land will never truly be "great again" until it flows with milk and honey for all. Authentic discipleship to Jesus decolonizes. It dares us to connect the dots and tell the truth about what Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called "the giant triplets of evil"-racism, militarism and extreme poverty. These triplets fuel upward mobility. The wrong kind of "great." And so we descend.
