ENUMCLAW, Wash., Mar. 11 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Jubilee Year -- which occurred every 50 years during biblical times -- was a celebration of freedom and rejuvenation.

In like manner, "The Year of My Jubilee" celebrates poet Rita D. Griffin's 50 years of life. "God is a peaceful haven; a place where I can find rest for my soul," says Griffin. "I want others to know the freedom found in serving God and for them to experience a renewed freshness or a newfound joy in living."

In her collection of 43 works of concise prose and poetry, Griffin shows what God has done for her and how she is developing spiritual maturity. She also shares lessons she has learned about forgiveness, gossip, and work ethics.

"I discuss topics everyone experiences at some time during their lives," she adds.

Griffin's themes include:

• Experiencing joy despite life's pitfalls

• Savoring and admiring nature

• Learning about love, forgiveness, and God's provision

"The Year of My Jubilee" is Griffin’s fourth volume of poetry. Her other books include Life, Love and God (1982), My Rites of Passage (1985), and My Little Light (2002).

"I wrote this book to share my faith and love for Jesus Christ," she says. "Each entry is accompanied by a beautiful, full-color image, which makes this volume a perfect coffee table book or gift book."
