Poets of the Promise 2024 
Poetry Anthology

The Poets of the Promise started as a twice-a-month writing workshop group. 

Born from the idea that people of faith should have a place to cultivate and create their poetry, the workshop aimed to train aspiring and established poets to use the gifts that God gave them regarding language. The books that came from the workshop were the physical manifestation of the effort, and God has given us the message in no uncertain terms, to go out and find more poetic messengers.
