Tiny Thoughts—a not-so-tiny collection of essays, poetry, art, and more!

Tiny Thoughts That I’ve Been Thinking: Selected Writings of Leslie Anne Bustard is a magpie’s nest of reflections on art, faith, literature, community, caregiving, and mortality. This collection includes essays, poems (many taken from The Goodness of the Lord in the Land of the Living), recipes, and other miscellaneous musings—all lovingly edited together by Théa Rosenburg to show how one follower of Jesus lived life to the glory of God by adding to the Beauty in the world around. Artwork fills the book by artists such as Bruce Herman, Joshua Kiehl, Makoto Fujimura, Mary McCleary, Matthew L. Clark, Georges Rouault, Joe Sutphin, Vincent van Gogh, John Hendrix, Ross Wilson, Sandra Bowden, Craig Hawkins, Hannah Claire Weston, Stephen Crotts, Roberto Ghezzi, Jamin Still, Theodore Prescott, and others.

About Tiny Thoughts Luci Shaw writes:

Light has a miraculous way of  illuminating whatever is in its path. Leslie Anne Bustard partook of this brightness—nothing superficial, more an inner gleam that showed up on her joyful face and got translated into her loving messages into the world, and especially to those of us who encountered her on her shortened path of life. For those who did not get to meet her, I’m thankful for this collection of writings which serves as an introduction to Leslie and to her luminous work. Thanks be to God!
