Discover the Spiritual Gift of Poetry, Prose, and Prayer with James Ellsberry’s Latest Book, "The Gift"

Are you searching for spiritual guidance and meaning in your life? Look no further than James Ellsberry’s latest book, “The Gift: Poetry, Prose and Prayer.” This collection of sixteen heartfelt poems, accompanied by personal reflections and scriptural passages, offers a unique and uplifting perspective on life’s most important themes.

James Ellsberry, who does not consider himself a poet, shares the inspiration behind his gift of verse, which often comes to him in the early morning hours. Readers have suggested that the poems are God-inspired, as they all contain references to the spiritual realm. Ellsberry himself does not claim them exclusively as his own, as he believes they are a gift meant to be shared with others.

In “The Gift,” readers will discover four distinct themes: discovering one’s life purpose and calling, family, friends, and community, prayer, and redemption. Each poem is preceded by a title page featuring a beautiful illustration that represents an important element of the verse, followed by a scriptural passage to further illuminate the poem’s meaning.

In his personal reflections, James Ellsberry offers his own insights into how the scriptural passages and the content of each poem combine to explain the most precious aspects of his life. His reflections encourage readers to reflect on their own experiences related to family, friends, work, prayer, and redemption, and to discover how these universal themes have defined and enriched their lives.

“The Gift” offers a unique and heartfelt perspective on life’s most important themes. James Ellsberry’s words and reflections will inspire readers to look inward and discover the spiritual gifts that are already present in their lives. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to deepen their spiritual journey and find meaning and purpose in their lives.
