Confidence

“David Craig is a psalmist who praises the complexity of the way, as St. John of the Cross once celebrated its darkness, as Gerard Manley Hopkins celebrated the strangeness and depth of the visions which burst one through illusion. I believe David Craig to be the foremost religious poet of the day whose special gift is to reveal the presence and care of God in all things—especially the most unlikely things. He gives poems as rich in humanity as they are in the mystery of God. . . . This is a major work in the mystical tradition.”

“I believe David Craig to be the foremost religious poet of the day whose special gift it is to reveal the presence and care of God in all things—especially the most unlikely things. He gives us poems as rich in humanity as they are of the mystery of God, which is the same. He is doing the work he was called for, and we are blessed by the presence his words generate.”
