Holy Sparks is a collection of poems grounded in a belief in the
kinship between the cosmos and its Creator. Biophilic imagery is used
throughout the poems to suggest that reverence for the earth is a
natural consequence of reverence for God. The language of poetry is used
to interconnect the human, natural and sacred, and to express
humanity’s moral and ethical responsibility to our nonhuman kin. These
poems question what it means for humans to live in right relationship
with earth’s lifesystems, and they suggest that our very identity is
tied to our reverence for the natural world. They offer a space of
confession, reparation and praise of what remains. Holy Sparks is a call to partake of Earth’s wisdom so that we might participate in the Creator’s ongoing work.
