#onlyHuman Ep3: Jon

Nicole catches up with Jon, a fellow poet whose body of work is a testimony of the richness and fullness of the life we are all called to. Jon shares with us what inspires his creative practice, how poetry is both a form of exploration and clarification of belief as well as a way of seeing and understanding the world around us. He reminds us that poetry is a connection with the Divine and that all creative pursuits are an imprint of the Creator Himself. We share about our favourite poets, glimpse beauty in things great and small and share life on how poems are truly a prayer in itself, expressing the unsayable and illuminating the truth that lies beneath.
