Unfinished Faith: Poems of Faith, Silence, and the Quiet Work of God is a contemplative poetry audiobook for listeners who encounter God not in certainty, but in stillness, wilderness, and the fragile beauty of ordinary life.

Written and narrated by South African poet Elaine Rumboll, this collection invites a slow, attentive way of listening. These poems are shaped by silence, breath, and the long interior work of grace. Faith here is not triumphant or polished. It is tender, stubborn, and luminous — a quiet turning toward God in seasons of doubt, waiting, grief, and becoming.

Rumboll writes from the ground level of spiritual life: dust and dusk, longing and prayer, the ache of not knowing, and the quiet astonishment that God may be nearer than we dare to believe. These poems do not rush toward answers. They linger, listen, and make space for what is unfinished.

Rooted in the movement from Lent into Easter, the audiobook unfolds in four parts: Becoming Still, Entering the Wilderness, God of the Ordinary, and Returning Light — tracing a faith that is honest, raw, and still forming.

The author’s voice is central to the experience. Narrated in a deep, resonant, and unhurried tone, the audiobook is designed to be listened to slowly, poem by poem. Silence is part of the listening. These poems are not meant to be consumed in one sitting, but returned to — during walks, early mornings, evenings of prayer, or seasons of waiting.

This audiobook is for listeners who:

• Seek God in silence rather than certainty
• Are living through grief, transition, or spiritual unknowing
• Love poetry that is spacious, reverent, and attentive

This is not a book to rush through.

It is an audiobook to accompany the slow, necessary journey home.
