What people are saying about …
Poets and saints
“Jamie George is one of our generation’s most inspired storytellers. He not only is able to bring a story to life, but he plants you right in the middle of it. In Poets and Saints, you will find yourself in a secret English garden, sharing a pint at the Eagle and Child in Oxford, standing in the shadows of Notre-Dame, and awestruck on a hillside in Assisi. You will meet a cast of unlikely characters and the stories they uncover. It was not only a privilege to take this journey with my friend and pastor, but it was a privilege to read his words and be reminded that God has woven the past and present together in a remarkable and vibrant way.”
Leslie Jordan, All Sons & Daughters
“Jamie has truly captured the voices and hearts of these extremely special individuals. The stories revealed on these pages will inspire, challenge, and spark creativity. I feel honored to have been a part of this adventure, and I know you will feel the same as you read this.”
David Leonard, All Sons & Daughters
“I’ve always said that the best teachers are storytellers, and Jamie George is one of the best storytellers I know. I’ve been blessed by hearing him tell his stories in person for years. Now it’s your turn!”
Dave Ramsey, New York Times bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio show host
“Jamie cuts through the religious stereotypes. His laid-back, transparent style of storytelling is extremely refreshing and encouraging for a guy like me, who was raised in the church and feels like he has seen it all. Jamie is a new friend that we all truly need to hear from.”
Jeremy Cowart, photographer and founder of Help-Portrait
“Jamie George is a masterful storyteller with a penchant for real-life situational significance. I’ve never felt comfortable with church or its confines, but I am proud to call Jamie my pastor, friend, and fellow artist.”
Kevin Max, artist and author, formally with DC Talk & Audio Adrenaline

About Poets and Saints: Eternal Insight. Extravagant Love. Ordinary People.
One of the most beautiful ways to know God better is to learn from those who served Him in other times and cultures. The poets and saints of Christian history were imperfect, yet they offer wisdom across the centuries that is as powerful today as it was to their contemporaries. |
