[Elisabeth Bialosky]

The collection and range of these texts are so good. Some writings are more analytical assessments of how God has shifted in rhetoric with current events, but other writings are just so deeply poetic and profound concepts of God and ourselves and the interconnection between earth and spirit. I loved this anthology and think it’s incredibly well edited and constructed for anyone interested in how people think of God in the face of current historical moments.
