Brace yourself for Ronald Jirovec’s richly woven tapestry of poetry in Poems for Praise, Comfort, and Joy – Volume 2. This second volume invites you on an adventurous “lifetime odyssey” through faith, mystery, and the everyday moments that shape our souls. Whether you’re wrestling with doubt or celebrating hope, these poems meet you exactly where you are—ready to guide you deeper into praise, comfort, and joy.
Drawing inspiration from epic voices like Milton and the prophetic passion of Nahum, Jirovec crafts each poem as both armor and beacon. You’ll reflect on the cosmic battle in “Woe the Dragon,” step into surreal twilight realms in “A Step Forward into Mysterious,” and face mythic warnings in “Beware of Medusa.” Then, turn inward with meditations like “By Quiet and Inner Discernment” and “Psalm 37 – A Meditation,” or ride alongside roaring chariots in an ancient arena as you ponder “The Chariots Roar.” Every piece is a distilled truth of the Word, designed to challenge your thinking and open your heart.
This collection spans fifteen thematic chapters, each unpacking a facet of the spiritual journey:
- The Great Fall explores pride and rebellion against divine order.
- Mystery, Fantasy, and a Tad of the Twilight Zone nudges you into the hidden dimension of God’s unseen work.
- Of Mythological Reference reimagines ancient legends as lessons for modern faith.
- On Wisdom and Insight offers practical “exercises” in discernment and poetic meditations.
- Personal or Personal Experience shares Jirovec’s own wilderness years—moments of trial, hope, and divine appointments.
Alongside these, you’ll find chapters on judgment, discipleship, and prayer as worship—each poem a step forward into the high country of spiritual insight.
Ronald Jirovec has spent his life guarding and sharing the truth of Scripture through carefully crafted rhyme and metaphor. He believes that poetry can distill the “nectar of truth’s fruit” and reveal our deepest longings for the divine. With a style that blends theological rigor and heartfelt lyricism, Jirovec’s work invites readers to ascend beyond the ordinary and encounter the sacred in every line.
is a celebration of that journey—one you won’t want to miss.
