The Raging Conflict Within

About the Book

The book ‘The Raging Conflict Within’ contains poems written to challenge readers who are struggling through their daily lives. These poems are just not for poetry but are special because Howard Bum believes they are all inspired by God, and have a purpose. That purpose is to show readers there is a better way to live their lives. Furthermore, that belief in God, having faith in Him and His word is the answer to a satisfying and everlasting life. Howard Bum believes if one life is saved by reading one, some, or all of the poems, the effort was worth it.

About the Author

Howard Blum was raised in the small town of Blytheville, Arkansas, knowing there was a God but not truly knowing Him. Howard spent six years in the United States Air Force from 1980 – 1986. The next several years found Howard wondering from town to town until he met his wife, Mary, and they married in February 2000. They started going to church and Bible studies. This is when Howard began feeling God speaking to him and inspiring him to write these poems. Howard knew that all things were possible for and through Him and whether sitting in a church service, Bible study, living room, his truck, or shop, these poems were written. Howard hopes that these written words will touch the life of someone and bring God into their life. God Bless all who read these poems.
