Cover Reveal

Here it is — the cover for Unspoken: 12 Devotions for What We Carry in Silence by Pastor John David Smith.

Designed by @Elev8designs1, this cover reflects the soul of the book: still, sacred, and spacious.

[John David Smith @ThePoetryStage]

What if your silence had a sanctuary?
What if your sorrow had a page?

Unspoken is for the ones who’ve whispered “I’m fine” when they weren’t.

Preorders open soon.

The Silence We Carry

"There are some things we carry so long in silence, we start to believe they don’t matter—or worse, that we don’t. This book was born in that quiet.”

Coming August 19: Unspoken—12 Devotions for What We Carry in Silence.

This cover.
Each tree, each shade, each drop of water—
represents a feeling, a passage, a prayer.
Nature speaks in poems.
I just write them down. 🍁❄️🌸☀️

Each section in Love in 4 Seasons mirrors nature:
🌸 Spring – Hope & new beginnings
☀️ Summer – Passion & wild pursuit
🍂 Autumn – Wisdom, change, reflection
❄️ Winter – Endurance, memory, legacy

Which season speaks to your soul?

Why do I write poetry?

Because I believe God has given each of us gifts and talents. Not to be hoarders and keep for ourselves, but to share those gifts with the world. Poetry is one such gift and talent God has granted to me.
