The body of Christ is the historical expression of Jesus’ love for us. We learn of Jesus’ love in large measure by the love of those around us. These poems and creative nonfiction essays portray the beauty, truth, and mystery of the communion of the saints. Drawn largely from the author’s life, the scenes presented and reflected on here point us not just toward the particularities of one person’s history but toward the incarnation of God and the ‘second incarnations’ that we are as we live amongst those who love us. Births, babies, little kids, teenagers, parents, grandparents, friends, Jesus and his friends all make appearances on these poetic pages.
