Small-Town Muse: Lessons from the Life and Poetry of Anne Bradstreet (A Breakout Session w/ Heather Peets)

In this episode, we share the audio from a breakout session at STS Vermont.

One of New England’s early settlers, Anne Bradstreet left behind her comfortable life in England for the wilderness of Massachusetts. Though she would become America’s first published poet, her most important roles were as devoted wife, nurturing mother, and committed saint. Through infertility, loss, fear, and pain, Bradstreet demonstrated faith and faithfulness. Nearly 400 years later, let Bradstreet’s life and poetry instruct you, her Christian sisters, how to live and minister in small-town New England.

Heather Peets is a pastor’s wife, mom of five, and teacher. She and her family live in Vermont where her husband pastors a small but committed congregation. For nearly fifteen years, Heather has served in educational ministry as a teacher in Christian colleges and schools. Currently, she teaches English at Mid Vermont Christian School where she enjoys sharing life lessons and theological truths through literature.
