William Yager's Perspective

As a teacher-poet, William Yager uses the metaphor of traveling through to symbolize our life's journey, suffused by innumerable unique and individual encounters and experiences—some with other people, some with nature, and some with the spirit of God.

About His First Book

In his first book, Dr. Yager suggested that we may all need a wayside, a place or state of mind where we can stop and take a reflective breath.

Exploring Our Encounters

In Traveling Through, he explores, at a deep and intuitive level, our encounters with nature, the extravagant spirit of God, the culture surrounding us, and the countercultural essence of the authentic Gospel of Jesus.
