REVIEWS
What a sensitive and inviting read. The author's gentle words and detailed descriptions invite the reader to think, feel, see and sense the presence of Christ. And not in a superficial way where glossing over people's deeply held beliefs is misrepresented as unconditional love. Instead Gainor has chosen such delicious words to highlight "all the God colors" that serve to either firm up those beliefs or spur inner tensions just as Christ does (see Gainor's chapter "Reaction"). I believe that Christians, lovers of language, and seekers alike will gain new insights, wisdom and visual images from this sensory-infused read from Nancy Gainor. I look forward to more.
