“I have never been able to separate Jesus from my sense of God present as Spirit or from God who transcends categories, affirmations, analysis, and apprehension.”
Wendy M. Wright, Sacred Heart: Gateway to God

“The liturgical year roots our faith. It grounds the invisible, animating our lives in the visible, tactile world. It is elemental. It drapes flesh on the skeletons of our too-ghostly religiosity. It connects heaven with earth, divine with human. It allows us to access the mysteries of our faith. In its feasts and fasts we taste and see God.”
Wendy M. Wright, The Rising: Living the Mysteries of Lent, Easter, and Pentecost
