The Bible states five special blessings for each morning. God brings joy in the mornings (Psalm 30:5). God loves anew every morning (Lamentations 3:2223). God visits every morning (Job 7:18). God enables us for service every morning (Isaiah 50:4). God promises an eternal morning (Isaiah 21:12). We call these blessings heavenly morning glories. They are like the morning glory flowers (Ipomoea nil) whose heart-shaped leaves remind of Gods love, whose trumpet-shaped flowers give muted sound of Christs return, whose covering vines hint of the reach of Christs forgiving power, and whose unraveling flowers promise newness and color to Gods creation. The Heavenly Morning Glories are part of a treasury of unusual spiritual meditations, some of which include the following: The Banqueting House The Unlived Life Baca Opportunistic Witnessing The Full Quiver Doubting Believers The Language of Tears I Love the Lord, Because . . . Euroclydon These spiritually enriching meditations were born from thirty-five years of the authors pastoral ministry to several churches.

Gothic Appalachian Literature examines the ways contemporary Appalachian authors utilize gothic tropes to explore the complex history and contemporary problems of the region, particularly in terms of their representation of economic and environmental concerns. It argues that across Appalachian fiction, the plight of characters to save their homes, land and way of life from the destructive forces of extractive industries brings sharply to bare the histories of colonization and slavery that problematize questions of belonging, ownership and possession. Robertson extensively considers contemporary manifestations of the gothic in Appalachian literature, arguing that gothic tropes abound in fiction that focuses on the impacts of extractive industries that connect this micro-region with other parts of the Global North and Global South where the devastating impacts of extractive industries are also experienced socially, economically and environmentally.
