Here is a second book of engaging, creative, and theologically astute poems for each Sunday of the church year and occasional other days based on the texts for Year B of the Revised Common Lectionary--Original Testament, Gospel, Letters, and Psalms. With the conviction that Scripture always proclaims something new about God, each of these 107 poems reveal a surprise, often with humor, like the proclamations made by the biblical writers. There are five new hymn texts with suggested tunes, and another poem can be a light-hearted choir anthem. For preachers, study groups, and personal devotions, the index of 128 biblical references will make the book usable at any time. With titles like ""Kind of Disturbed by Some of These Scriptures,"" ""Does Jesus Still Thumb His Nose?"" and ""From the KJV to Shazam "" these poems will provoke, amuse, inform, and inspire anyone who suspects the Bible's purpose is to proclaim grace for our lives.
