Talk to God and Listen to the Casual Reply

“Fans of John Denver will be delighted by Boyer’s thematic survey of Denver’s lyrics and spirituality. Boyer looks at Denver’s songs through the lens of several topics, environment, family, time, and many more to thoughtfully examine Denver’s spirituality. Each chapter concludes with a reflection to inspire further examination. This is a wonderful book for those who love John Denver’s work and seek to explore the world he loved so dearly.”

“Talk to God and Listen to the Causal Reply invites the reader on a contemplative journey into the spirituality of John Denver and his music. The skillfulness with which Boyer connects Denver’s lyrics to Scripture and faith places the reader alongside the musician to experience a reverence and appreciation for all of God’s works.”

“Boyer’s comprehensive knowledge of John Denver’s life and music is matched only by his insight for spiritual discovery. While many previous works drew inspiration from Scripture, his latest book guides the reader in exploring their spirituality through the poetry of Denver’s lyrics. For the most authentic experience, I recommend a trip to the Rocky Mountains with this book in your pack and a ‘John Denver’s Greatest Hits’ album on your headphones.”


—John Kossler, Ecologist, Western Meridian Resources
