Words of Weight

By Mary Grace van der Kroef

What if a single word could open a door to healing?

Written in a season when the author was struggling and needed something meaningful to hold onto, Words of Weight began with a simple invitation: Tell me a word that matters to you. From those reader-submitted words came thirty-six powerful poems, each anchored in a single theme.

Drawing on a clear and compassionate Christian worldview, Mary Grace van der Kroef writes with a refreshing honesty about struggle, mental and spiritual fatigue, and the everyday battles of the heart. Her verse is rich with imagery and emotion, yet accessible enough for readers who do not usually reach for poetry.

You will recognize yourself in these pages:

If you wrestle with depression, discouragement, or burnout and need gentle words that do not shame you for feeling lowIf you crave Christ-centred poetry that is authentic rather than polished and distantIf you are looking for a meaningful resource for devotional time, journaling prompts, or small group discussionIf you love inspirational poetry that captures both the weight of reality and the glimmer of hope

This collection is ideal for:

Readers of Christian poetry, inspirational poetry, and spiritual reflectionsFans of personal, introspective writing about faith, mental health, and healingAnyone walking through grief, change, or uncertainty who needs words that feel like companionshipFriends and family members looking for a thoughtful gift book for birthdays, encouragement, or care packages

Whether you read one poem a day with your morning coffee or sit down and absorb the collection in a quiet evening, Words of Weight invites you to slow down and listen. To your own heart. To the stories of others. To the whisper of God amid the noise.

Let these poems give language to what you have struggled to say. Let them remind you that your emotions are not too much, your questions are not a failure of faith, and your story carries eternal significance.
