Signed Copy of Exalted Ground by Kimberly Phinney
Exalted Ground is Kimberly Phinney's much-anticipated follow-up collection to her best-selling debut, Of Wings and Dirt. In Exalted Ground, readers who were swept away by Kimberly's vulnerability and powerful storytelling through verse will find even more reasons to continue with her into the holiness that is living awake. With the raw beauty of nature and longing as her backdrop, Kimberly navigates what it is to be fully alive, as she journeys with her readers through the most essential aspects of the human experience: to praise and lament, to wonder and search, and to love and create. Following in the traditions of Mary Oliver and Wendell Berry, Exalted Ground celebrates the great awe found in God's creation and the divine spark nestled in our ordinary days.
Every copy you purchase comes signed with a personalized note inside. It also includes a typed poem from Kimberly’s 1957 Olympia SM3 and thematic stickers!
Reviews
"Kimberly Phinney's poetry does what poetry is meant to do: it sings, it dances, it cries, it praises, it searches, it laments. It shows us what it means to be creatures of language and words-and what the power of words can do..."
-Dr. Karen Swallow Prior, professor, speaker, and author of The Evangelical Imagination
"Exalted Ground guides you through the wilderness of yourself, showing you all the raw and ragged bits of life-down into the Valley of Shadow. And then they show you the Coming Dawn. This is a great collection that shows you that hope and light are always victorious."
-Josh Nadeau, artist and founder of Sword and Pencil and author of Room for Good Things to Run Wild
"The poems in Kimberly Phinney's Exalted Ground are transcendent yet grounded in the soil of lived experience. I resonate deeply with the spiritual and emotional resilience in these pages."
-Stephen Roach, founder of The Breath and the Clay, host of Makers and Mystics, and author of Naming the Animals
"Kimberly takes us on a journey through her heart and soul, inviting us to live. This collection is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the power of faith, and the beauty that can be found even in the darkest of times. As you read, you will find yourself immersed in a world where praise and lament coexist, where hope and despair dance together, and where the sacred and the mundane are intertwined."
-Tanner Olson, poet, speaker, author of Walk a Little Slower, and founder of WrittentoSpeak.com
