Playing Time Against God is the compilation of experiences in the call to unite the excitement and the hardships of being human in a world of beauty and a world of strife, alongside her brethren in understanding the world. In realizing that it is a choice to live in Love over fear, gratitude over regret and discovery over apathy, her journey reveals a host of scattered emotions and complicated feelings. The ecstasy of joy and the anguish of pain, the distorted thinking, dissatisfaction and revelations she encounters in the fourteen years of her writing that lead to the conscious decision to live for the sake of love, and search for truth. These poems became necessary for her, for she found her voice lies in the melody of ideals, beliefs and theories portrayed in her poetry. Her light and darkness are depicted in her quest to know her true heart and soul that has been let loose inside of the pages.

Many people would be surprised to hear that a playful attitude towards God and the world lies at the heart of Christian faith. Traditionally Christians have focused on the serious responsibilities of service, sacrifice, and commitment. But the prophets say that the future kingdom is full of people laughing and playing, which has implications for Christians who are called to live out the future kingdom in the present. Play is not trivial or secondary to work and service—only a playful way of living does justice to the seriousness of life! Play is the essential and ultimate form of relationship with God, which is why Jesus told people to learn from children. Indeed, a playful attitude is an important part of all significant relationships. This book explores grace, faith, love, worship, redemption, and the kingdom from the perspective of a playful attitude. It describes how to create a “play ethic” to match the “work ethic” and discusses play as a virtue, Aquinas’s warning against the sin of not playing enough, and Bonhoeffer’s claim that in a world of pain it is only the Christian who can truly play.

On the night of November 4th 1605, the English authorities uncovered an alleged plot by a group of discontented Catholics to blow up the Houses of Parliament with the lords, princes, queen and king in attendance. The failure of the plot is celebrated to this day and is known as Guy Fawkes Day. In Poets, Players and Preachers, Anne James explores the literary responses to the discovery of the Gunpowder Plot in poetry, drama, and sermons. This book is the first full-length study of the literary repercussions of the conspiracy. By analyzing the genres of poems, plays, and sermons produced between 1605 and 1688, the author argues that not only did the continuous reinterpretation of the conspiracy serve religious and political purposes but that such literary reinterpretations produced generic changes.
