I hope you as the listener will always be encouraged to continue striving towards your goals.

This book of poems is the fruit of many years of struggle and difficulties. It is the beginning of seeing life lived from a deeper place of singleness of heart, life in union with Christ.

The title reflects many nights that I had to slow down and evaluate things. I was affected by the flood of 2016 in Louisiana. When a life experience of dramatic proportion hits you, just like in baseball, you take first base. Once you get there, you have to evaluate if you're staying put, or will you steal a base or two? Everyone's objective in life is to make it home one way or another. Me? I am taking second base and going for more.

Beyond the Backside of God is the poetic storytelling of a journey through loss of faith. It is akin to that found in the writings of John of the Cross. The traveler moves out of the traditional village of god belief through the dark nights of sense, mind, and soul into the terrifying void. A miracle happens! Void merges with liberating plentitude from where the traveler is lifted to a oneness with the source of all that is. What began as a journey of despair becomes a journey of love.

The insights serve as a guide to explain the unfoldment of self through conscious awareness.

Think of this book as a surgery, if you will. A surgery being held on my life, my emotions, my everything. As with all surgeries, the goal is to come out better than you entered the operating room. My hope is that through examining the parts within myself that are the most painful to touch with brute, unedited, and unrestrained honesty, you will be able to see yourself in some of these parts.
