Cornel West, one of America's most prominent scholars and celebrated authors, stated that, "Anthony Jerrod is a brilliant poet with a bold message." Upon reading, it is clear that Jerrod, national bestselling author of Carnal Striving Spiritual (www.anthonyjerrod.com), is following the footsteps of some of the best Christian poets, such as John Milton, Maya Angelou, James Weldon Johnson, and Langston Hughes. In Jerrod's collection of thought-provoking and witty poems, the author empathetically draws on the syncopation of gospel, blues, and jazz to move the reader to discover a more profound understanding of carnality and the need to reduce its frequency in order to start truly living the abundant life and to grow and mature spiritually.

Carnal Striving Spiritual examines the sparse topic of carnality that affects everyone from all walks of life. This book candidly analyzes a plethora of hot button topics such as adultery, politics, lingering racial dynamics, indifference to injustices and suffering and boldly examines controversial topics such as marketplace Christianity, abortion and homosexuality while cleverly being nonjudgmental.



With each chapter, Jerrod's beautiful poetry and aesthetics speak to different aspects of the reader. Jerrod uses a contemporary style and technique that relies on irregular rhythms and free verse, attention-getting titles ("Afghanistan Terrain" and "Reality Show: The Hottest Christian Artist") and a fluctuating tone. Carnal Striving Spiritual, in its eight chapters, compels its readers to reexamine their hearts in the hopes of improving their spiritual life.

Unlike many poets, whose prose and diction are too abstract for the common reader to grasp and could only be understood by similar poets, Jerrod creates a universal work that dissects race, age, gender and even religion.

In addition to the very impressive chapters on carnality as it relates to the mind, the church, the tongue, trials, race, politics and relationships, Jerrod also expounds on pure intimacy and romance for married couples, which are relatively taboo subjects in both secular and Christian circles. He masterfully pens very passionate poems in this chapter, while cleverly refraining from overt sexual overtones.

With Carnal Striving Spiritual, readers will not be presented with "cookie-cutter" poetry or mundane motivational and inspirational literature. You can look forward to a contemporaneous, refreshing and avant-garde work that is purposed to bless a multitude.
