The TIFERET Journal presents
Offerings: A Spiritual Poetry Anthology
Introduction by Donna Baier Stein with poems from participants in Tiferet's spiritual poetry writing workshops 2020-2022. This collection of poems shares a common theme of the peace found in solitude, in nature, and in stillness. It explores the human experiences of struggle and doubt, while offering healthy doses of hope and humor. In a world that increasingly promotes isolation, this collection of poems is offered as a gift, a connection to readers, a companion on the journey for seekers.

Julie Maloney
Author and Director of Women Reading AloudThank you for this journal which combines spiritual issues, imaginative issues, aesthetic issues. All of those, I think, need to be in the mix for the richly lived life, the richly observed life.
