Meet Me at the Moaning Bench

The first pew in the front of the church, historically called the Moaning Bench, has served as a place of comfort for those in mourning; and a place of refuge for those seeking forgiveness and redemption. During these critical times it has been a sacred place where troubled souls can whisper their confessions and beseech repentance through their heartfelt cries. It is in this space that lost souls mourn, cry for repentance, and plea for salvation. "Meet Me at the Moaning Bench," transports the reader directly to the front of the church and most importantly, before God. At a time when there is heightened attention on the relevance of spiritualism and divinity, Timid Masses through his poetry, crafts a masterful argument for the necessity of both. Each poem represents the timeless testimony of a personal journey in search of redemption and salvation. A must read for anyone struggling with the complex triad of hope, faith and love.
