"Belonging to Every Riven Thing": Reflecting on the Incarnation with the Help of Peots(II)
by Sarah Chestnut
Oct 11, 2019
An earlier version of this lecture was given in 2016. Turning to three new poems, we will consider in a format more discussion than lecture what it means about God, and what it means for our humanity, that Jesus was fully divine and fully human. For those who would like to read the poems in advance, see “Every Riven Thing” (Christian Wiman), “Descending Theology: Christ Human” (Mary Karr), and “Hill Country” (Tracy K. Smith).
