For some, it is a time of giving and receiving many gifts. While for others, it is a time for home decoration with ornaments and lights. Why do we celebrate Christmas?

It is a time when we thank God for his amazing plan to redeem mankind. Jesus Christ is the reason for the season, He is the reason for Christmas! From John 3: 16, we have: 16. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. The love of God surpasses that of man in that He, through His infinite love and wisdom, thought it good to send Jesus to this world of sin, so that we might have eternal life! Christmas is a time we commemorate the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, through which we now have the joy of salvation. He came to this world to redeem mankind. We were, as it were, on our way to eternal destruction and damnation before Jesus came. However, through His sacrifices, we have the opportunity to be reconciled to God. He came for our redemption and we should be completely grateful to God for this wonderful day.

"A warning to the reader: you will need an oven mitt to hold this heart-searing book. Replete with vision, wit, and imagistic precision, the poems in this collection enact glacially inside the reader. They gouge out new landscapes and redefine the emotional interior. Jennifer Clark feeds us our spiritual oats in the form of a toddler, a dying friend, a bat attaching itself to the space shuttle during lift off. She makes everything she touches holy. She dips her paint brush into fire and vision creating such potent undertows, we drown and grieve with her. But wait, she seems to whisper to us in other poems, it's time to get up and dance. She inspires us to bang pots and the lids of pans together like a child and revel in the living. Now open this book and read, become-through the power of her poems-exquisitely human again." --John Rybicki, author of When All the World Is Old "In Jennifer Clark's Necessary Clearings a small girl watching smoke rings "attempts to marry the moment" by sliding one onto her finger, a young mother holding her son admits "even this moment is ending." Everything in this collection bears witness to the disappearing world, and to Clark's desire to stay the moment with words. Graylings, gardening neighbors, even freezers die -- "Fix her, fix, her, fix her," prays the daughter of an ailing mother. Yet death and decaying bones share a world with blueberries and goldfinches and astral nurseries where stars are being born, even if their light will take 22 million years to reach us. Necessary Clearings takes place in the tensions between these truths. These are the poems we need while we wait it out." --Susan Blackwell Ramsey, author of A Mind Like This, winner of the Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Poetry
Scarf designer Annie MacKerricher once worked with color the way most people breathe-effortlessly. Then tragedy shatters her world, and now all she sees is darkness. Annie's life changes in the time it takes for a bullet to tear through flesh. Her husband is gone, murdered by a heartless gangbanger for an expensive watch. Now a year has passed, and Annie's ability to work with colors eludes her. Determined to remake her life, Annie moves north with her black lab, Bear, abandoning her high-pressure life in a Los Angeles suburb for the tiny fishing village of Trinidad, California. Surrounded by majestic redwoods, Trinidad offers Annie new friendships, a new perspective, and, just maybe, a new chance for love. She's drawn to handsome fisherman and artist Forrest Hammond, and he seems to reciprocate her feelings, to the fury of his spoiled, rich ex-girlfriend. But Hammond is hiding something from Annie: a secret that could destroy their simmering romance. Just as Annie is starting to feel comfortable in her adopted home, her past seems to return to haunt her. Her husband's killer threatened revenge after Annie testified against him, and his deadly reach appears to stretch all the way to Trinidad.

Nominated for a Rhysling Award and five Pushcart Prizes, Jennifer Clark'spoems, essays, and short stories have been published in numerous literary journals and anthologies. The Midwest Quarterly, Women's Studies Quarterly, Windhover, Concho River Review, Ecotone, Nimrod, and Flyway are some of the journals that have made a home for her writings. Her short story published in Fiction Fix received their Editor's Choice Award and her play, "Father's Not There," was featured at the U.S. National Conference on Child Abuse and Neglect. She lives in Kalamazoo, Michigan. ¿ "The story is part of our American landscape: Johnny Appleseed going from field to field, town to town, planting his seeds, redeeming the misnomered forbidden fruit. Historians have recorded the life of Johnny A, real name John Chapman. But Jennifer Clark has searched the archives of the soul of this enigmatic sower of the fruit that brings tart sweetness to the mutability of autumn. In lyric poems created with that most extraordinarily difficult of approaches, the plainsong, Clark resurrects the man, his world, his benevolent eccentricity. She gives us something much more mysterious than the legend: she gives us the real. As we accompany the John Chapman we consider what it means to give without ever knowing the result. And we thank Jennifer Clark for doing the same." --Jack Ridl, author of Practicing to Walk Like a Heron, winner of the ForeWord Reviews' 2013 INDIEFAB Book of the Year Award "From a couple of poems, I watched this book grow into the amazingly informed text it is now. Clark's research is thorough, and the poems are beautiful and evocative. It's like two books in one: a book of poetry that encompasses America's past through the vehicle of Johnny Appleseed. As he moves through the country sowing his seeds, the American landscape, too, evolves, warts and all. The lives of pioneers and settlers, the displacement of Native Americans, slavery, the Pony Express right up to the internet. It's such an accomplishment. And the end notes are as entertaining as the poetry. lf history had been taught like this, I would have come to it much earlier." ¿ --Elizabeth Kerlikowske, author of Dominant Hand and the chapbook, Last Hula, winner of the 2013 Standing Rock Chapbook Competition

"A Beginner's Guide to Heaven" is not so much concerned with moving earth towards heaven, as it is with yanking heaven to earth. Even amidst our haste, failures, distractions, and worries, it's all within reach. The poems invite us to see the mystery in the every day, and revel in the wonders of such things as moths, dandelions, dogs, and beer. These poems serve as a gateway to the inner journey. They remind us we are one holy family cut from the same cloth, spiritual explorers of this beautiful, broken world. This collection urges us to pay attention and get to work, "while we still have time to build."
Jennifer Clark reframes the smart city concept within the trajectory of uneven development of cities and regions, as well as the long history of technocratic solutions to urban policy challenges. She considers the potential of emerging technologies as well as their capacity to exacerbate existing inequalities and even produce new ones.
