“Every night after dinner, Mom sat us down to read the Bible and pray. I loved the stories about Jesus. He healed the sick and fed the hungry. He talked back to the hypocrites. He raised Lazarus from the dead. He was my hero, like Mighty Mouse. And Mom was right. Jesus did love the weak and the outcast—that’s who he hung around with. If Jesus went to my school, he wouldn’t be in a clique. As a child I knew that was real love. I knew it the way you only have to see blue once to know what blue looks like.”
—Susan E. Isaacs, “Angry Conversations with God”
