My church friend Rachel shares John 10:10,
Her favorite Bible verse on how faith brings joy into her creative life. She has critiqued my poems and essays selflessly again, And she inspires me to be a better mom and a kinder wife. People may look at church folks as if we were silly simple-minded prudes, Too scared to drink wine or wander into the darkness of the Internet. Rachel tells me that her visual art, like her life, Deals with sorrow, social justice, the now and the not-yet. To understand art, poems, the Bible, or even our changing kids, A second or even a 10th close look is what it often takes. Rachel and I sharpen each other's artistic eyes, While our kids pretend to be adventurers during our playdates. https://www.foreshadowmagazine.com/magazine/a-closer-look
