Quoted by5/ This is where the Incarnation becomes intensely material. The Word becomes flesh. Jesus touches bodies, eats with outcasts, feeds the hungry, confronts power, is betrayed and murdered. The immanence of God appears in the midst of ordinary life in all its beauty and brutality.Quoted by@ncolloff I find life outruns its ontological shareability, becoming less tellable the more extraordinary it becomes. One suppresses autobiographical experience because its truthful telling presupposes a metaphysical reality the surrounding culture cannot admit. So I say almost nothing.
