The Meaning is in the Waiting: Faith and Doubt in the Poetry of R. S. Thomas

The 20th century Welsh poet and Anglican priest R. S. Thomas (1913-2000) left us a rich body of work that grapples with the silence of God and the dance of faith and doubt. Through stark imagery, raw honesty, and a sense of divine absence, Thomas' work offers profound meditations on the complexities of the life of faith, with doubt as a deep, necessary part of authentic spiritual experience.
