“Men,” I hear the captain say,
“We sail for paradise this day!
We stay the course! We hold the line!
Come what may! Come what may!”
—excerpt from Part II: Undaunted
Award-winning poet, Christopher A. Hostettler, paints the picture of a bold and daring captain sailing through a fearsome storm and leading men on the field of battle. But the story begins by looking back to the captain’s boyhood and the fateful day that shaped the man he would become.
This four-part Christian allegory is followed by a series of commentaries, reflecting on its underlying themes of courage, hope, and the enduring power of a father’s love. Between the beautiful narrative, thought-provoking commentary, and stunning illustrations, this book is more than just a story—it’s a poetic journey that is sure to leave a lasting mark on any reader’s heart!
