Flesh Made Word Quotes

“If my sister or brother is not at the table, we are not the flesh of Christ. If my sister’s mark of sexuality must be obscured, if my brother’s mark of race must be disguised, if my sister’s mark of culture must be repressed, then we are not the flesh of Christ. … Unless our sisters and brothers are beside and with each of us, we are not the flesh of Christ.”
― Emily Holmes, Flesh Made Word: Medieval Women Mystics, Writing, and the Incarnation
