Jesus Walks the Southland | Robert Gray (Poet)
Poetry. "In JESUS WALKS THE SOUTHLAND, Robert Gray paints a triptych of the holy Trinity of the South—religion, racism, and politics. And, as 'The Power of Prayer' signals, the painting is a personal prayer of a white Southerner offered as liturgy for others to recite. If before you devour the collection you want to know whether the prayer is lament, confession or thanksgiving, the answer is a powerful yes."—Rev. O. Wesley Allen, Jr., author ofThe Renewed Homiletic and Reading the Synoptic Gospels
