Elizabeth Jennings's Christianity and Poetry refers both to her 1965 book exploring faith and art and to her broader poetic practice, where her Catholic Christianity deeply informs her work, using plain language and concrete imagery to bridge the gap between human experience and divine mystery, finding God in the world, doubt, and suffering, and seeing poetry as a sacramental way to express faith and reach transcendence. She connects biblical narratives with modern life, using imagination to give form to the ineffable, seeing poetry as a way to make faith real and tangible, a 'human transcription of the perennial Logos'.
