From Nagel's God to the Nicene Creed

Although I've been kept away from the writing desk much of this spring, I have still managed to compose a thing or two. This week's offerings include my Catholic Thing essay on theology, metaphysics, and philosopher Thomas Nagel, called "A New Theism?" and my most recent poem in First Things​, "Atmosphere."

Forma magazine has also published my long essay, "What Are Stanzas For?" and three new poems: "The Bones of Men and Women," "Before the Gates," and "The New World." I encourage you to subscribe to Forma, which has just announced that its print and online versions will now be offered free to all subscribers. I include an image of one poem here; you can click it to find the subscription link.

Last but not least, my eleventh book, Praying the Nicene Creed: I Believe in One God has just been released in the United Kingdom by the Catholic Truth Society. It is available for order in the United States, though I understand that a US publisher may eventually begin distributing it domestically to make it easier to come by.
