Slices of Life: The Drama of God's Grace in Poem and Portrait Albert J D Walsh

Description: The poems in this collection are offered along two related lines. In the first part of the book the poems and etchings coalesce to form what the author calls a family portrait of grace and faith, representing the fruit of a process of biblical study and reflection, which will be of interest to both the lay person and pastor in his or her preparations for teaching and preaching. In the second section of the book the author provides a variety of poems disclosing the dynamics of life in its multiplicity of patterns and expressions. Together the two sections seek to express the grace of God in the commonalities of life. About the Contributor(s): Albert J. D.

Patrick Lee Walsh is a freelance artist specializing in both landscapes and abstract forms.
