Metaphysics and Memory

This poetry collection from Christian philosopher and theologian Jesse Hamilton extols the glory of nature, explores the limits of human experience and the expanse of faith, and examines all things philosophical and mundane, while employing poetic styles familiar and foreign. At times liturgical and mystical, sacrosanct and secular, joyful and despairing, yet inevitably inhabiting the true and the beautiful, this collection is sure to move, challenge, and inspire both the experienced reader of poetry and the novice, both the faithful and the seeking.

Jesse Hamilton holds an MA with distinction in systematic and philosophical theology from the University of Nottingham and was enrolled in PhD studies in analytic philosophy of religion at the University of Aberdeen before God led him to withdraw and refocus on ministry. He is the author of three books in practical theology, including Discipleship and the Evangelical Church: A Critical Assessment, published by Wipf and Stock. He occasionally writes poetry.
