This collection of 44 poems, by Jean Arthur Jones, is edited and published by Bruce Whealton. It reflects the editor's personal impression of what are the best poems of the many that have been written by Mr. Jean Arthur Jones. In writing this, it is implied that some of the poems chosen may reflect personal preferences and as such, these poems may represent the editor's favorite poems by Jean Jones. This is inevitable as it is difficult to find any objective sense of "the best" when describing poetry. The poems represent a range of subjects and the order was chosen purposefully. However, the poems are not ordered in chronological order of when the poems were written or when they were published. One of the editor's favorite collections by Jean Jones is the "Angel of Death" poetry collection. That subject, as such, has received the most attention in this collection. Some advice I received within the past couple years from Jean was about honesty, to be honest, always, in one's poetry. And to ask oneself, "does it read as honest?" I think that is a theme I've found in the poetry of Jean Jones. Sometimes you will read about his raw emotions and at other times you experience his feelings along with his observations about the world, life, death, God, faith, good and evil. Some poems draw upon some rather deep literary sources of inspiration. Other poems draw upon the every day experiences. I think all readers will find that his poems vary in complexity and thus defy simple characterization. I'm not aware of too many poets that similarly have such varied style in their writing.
Guided by the Holy Spirit, the goal of the author is to impart wisdom and knowledge specifically designed to assist new Christians to know where they fit and who they are in the Body of Christ. This book will assist new church members to gain spiritual truths as to how God has always looked on those who belong to him. The purpose of In Christ Jesus: Tell My People Who They Are is to boost the spiritual awareness of those who have accepted Jesus as their Savior and are now members of Christ’s Body. The information that the author provides is designed to be simple yet powerful. It will also remind Christians who have been walking with Jesus for a long time that they are more than the filthy rags that the world says they are. In fact, they are now “more than conquers through Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:37). As Christians, we are who God says we are!

Little did Wilma Jean Jones realize when she started dedicating her time to sessions receiving messages and teachings dictated directly from spirit teachers/angels that these sessions would continue for the next 22 years. This body of work and the deep teachings shared are given in first person by the spirit teachers themselves. "We feel, we believe, we advise" are used often in this material. "Our view encompasses more than your view is allowed to comprehend" illustrates the high level and perspective of the spirit teachers/angels presenting this information. Many of these teachings were given as personal messages for Wilma and her son Michael; however, many readers of this material have found a personal connection with these teachings. "This sounds like they are talking to me; this sounds like what I'm dealing with" has been expressed by many who have read these messages. Allow these messages and teachings to open the door to communication with your own spirit teachers/angels as they ask for nothing more than to be acknowledged and recognized for the guidance and direction they are willing to share with our existence. Their joy is our recognition in their existence and our willingness to incorporate their teachings into our everyday lives as we walk our chosen path.

This book is a small glimpse into the lives of a blended family who, despite their differences, love each other deeply. It is interesting to note that nosey Granny has no blood relationship to any of her family. She was an adoptive Mom of one son, and a step-Mom to four children, two boys and two girls. However, the love connection to her family is a powerful one. The nosey, slightly peculiar, well-meaning Granny wants to participate in the process of her 12 Grandchildren (seven boys, five girls) becoming adults. Hard to do when they are living in all parts of the U.S., plus Brazil and Japan. Her solution: Snail mail, e-mails and yes, even texting. Facebook and Skype help. Her face is recently popping up on Facetime. Technology is killing her. Her printer only works part time. If not for 13 year old Gage, one of her 9 Great Grandchildren and 25 year old Joyce, the youngest of the 12 adult grandchildren helping her when her computer just stops for no earthly reason, this book could never have been written. The truth is 80 year old Granny doesn't know an upload from a download. Her goal is to help all of the Grandchildren with well-intended suggestions of how to lead their lives, she say's (what's wrong with that?) She begins seriously the instant they leave for college.
