Anointed Scroll by Faith Jackson is not just a poetry book—it is a journey of faith, emotions, and self-discovery. This collection brings together powerful poems that talk about God, identity, struggles, healing, and personal growth. From the very first page, the author’s voice feels honest, strong, and full of purpose.
One of the best things about this book is how real it feels. Faith Jackson writes about deep topics like fear, pain, anxiety, and trauma, especially in poems like “Deliver Me” and “Trauma.” But instead of leaving the reader feeling heavy, she adds hope and faith to every situation. Her words remind us that healing is possible.
The book also celebrates identity and confidence. Poems like “She’s So Chocolate” and “What Does My Hair Say to the World?” talk about self-love, beauty, and being proud of who you are. These poems are bold, empowering, and very relatable, especially for readers looking for confidence and representation.
Another interesting part of the book is its style. Some poems feel like spoken word or rap, like “Boy Do I Feel Like a Rapper,” which makes the reading experience fun and energetic. Others, like “Glory” and “Worship,” are calm and spiritual, making you pause and reflect.
The language is simple but powerful. Sometimes there is repetition, but it adds emotion and makes the message stronger. It feels like the author is speaking directly to the reader.
Overall, Anointed Scroll is a meaningful and inspiring poetry collection. Faith Jackson shares her thoughts with honesty and faith, making this book both emotional and uplifting.
