TASTING GOD: Poetry of the Incarnation
What does it mean for God to be described as a grain of wheat, thrashed to pieces and baked into bread? Or a living book, with our names written in the heart of the body? Central to Christian faith is the idea that God became human in the incarnation. We will explore poetry that helps us experience the beauty and strangeness of this central belief. Likely authors include John Donne, George Herbert, Langston Hughes, and Luci Shaw.
