The sacrifice of Christ


I was introduced to the poetry of George Herbert 25 years ago in a college literature class. In fact, I had to purchase a textbook comprised almost entirely of his poetry. I didn’t have an appreciation for his writing at the time — even after reading a significant amount from that book.

Now I do.

In Through the Looking Glass, Kris Lundgaard quotes one of Herbert’s poems at length. It’s worth reading.
