God's Poetry - The Identity & Destiny Encoded in Your Name is on my TBR list - so I haven't written a review but another friend has written a fantastic review HERE
What’s in a name? Shakespeare said a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. But is that true? Are names simply labels to be swapped around indiscriminately? Or are they more significant? God’s Poetry is about identity and destiny as well as the ancient concept of the power of names to body forth purpose and meaning. It’s also about why most of us never come into the calling prophetically breathed into what we are called.
Genre: Non Fiction
Lemon syrup cake...sounds yummy! Great interview
ReplyDeleteI am intrigued by names, so God's Poetry snagged my interest. I am going to read this while (hopefully) indulging in lemon syrup cake, which sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteLemon is such a great color! :)
ReplyDeleteThe idea of the maths trilogy is really intriguing. And lemons!!! Meyer lemons are my fave. God's Poetry sounds like a cool book. I've always been fascinated by the nomen omen idea.
ReplyDeleteLemon fan here too! I think it's the Greek in me. Lemon features in most things we eat. Lifts the flavour. ;)
ReplyDeleteCool book concept, Anne. I believe there is power in names.
ReplyDeleteI like lemons, too. So long as they're served with lots of sugar!
Lemon cake is a favorite of mine as well. And now that you've brought it up, I might have to make one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely, lemony way to get to know Anne.
ReplyDeletegreat to meet Anne! I bet she loves Lemony Snicket too. :D
