As an African American, Nikki Grimes lives in the margins, and she can tell you that it's a place most of us would rather not be. And yet, she knows there is always glory to be found in the margins because of the Lord's presence in, and with us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Poet Laureate of Grace Brethren Church in Southern California, it's Ms. Grimes' job to distill the heart of the weekly sermon into a poem. She dives into each week's chosen scripture, viewing it from her own perspective as Black, as woman, as poet, always a little left of center, and looking for the glory to be found in the margins of life, and of the text. Of course, she says, those of us who live in the margins are not what anyone expects, and the very notion that God might speak through us, may seem a bit wild. But he does. 'I will pour out my spirit on all flesh, ' said the Lord. God's busy in the hearts of all who call on him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Grimes, Nikki\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/21\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Iron Pen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781640606777\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176","brand":"Nikki Grimes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39416808800331,"sku":"9781640606777","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/1697\/6715\/products\/img_7ce3aa7f-4d86-48e7-8c33-871adfddc22c.jpg?v=1624944721","url":"https:\/\/blackbookstore.com\/products\/glory-in-the-margins-sunday-poems-9781640606777","provider":"Black Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
