What to expect
In God of All Promises: A Poetic Pilgrimage through Genesis, Walter Brueggemann offers a fresh, prayerful journey that illuminates our shared faith. With poetic insight and theological depth, Brueggemann invites listeners to find new meaning in each chapter of Genesis through his personal spiritual practice of praying back the Bible to the God who dwells therein. Those who engage deeply with these poems will find themselves taking time with each line, pausing so that they may engage in critical reflection on the text, appreciate the art of the text, and see the text as a script for prayer and meditation.
Beginning with a scriptural epigraph and ending in prayer, every entry invites deeper engagement with the living Word, gleaning a renewed sense of God’s enduring promises. Brueggemann's lifelong passion for Scripture and the faith community shines through as he draws out the persistent themes of God's presence, faithfulness, and creative love, even in humanity's messiest moments. In Genesis, he shows us a God who brings order out of chaos, calls us beyond grief and fear, and forms a people meant to bless the world.
Whether you're a pastor, seeker, or lifelong learner, God of All Promises is a spiritual companion that offers a rich, imaginative resource for individual devotion, group study, or communal worship.
