Welcome to Douglas Wilson's The Plodcast.

As promised, there is a brand new release in the Christian Heritage Series,

George Herbert's The Temple, with a fantastic forward from John Piper.

Although he was a pastor of a small remote church in Elizabethan England, George Herbert came to fame because of a small collection of poems called the temple.

In this short but beautiful collection of poetry, Herbert devised 116 new poetic forms to capture his experience of awe, sorrow, glory,

turmoil, repentance, and heart-rending joy.

All of it dedicated to God, not man.

In this book we have a picture of the full range

of human experience and emotion, felt by a man being sanctified by God and

describing it with all his poetic powers. Get George Herbert's the temple
