The congressman from Georgia

who had his brains beaten while

crossing a bridge on a civil rights

walk when he was little more than

a mere child in a white shirt and

half Windsor and trench coat,

survived and thrived to tell the story.

He said that you could put your body

in the way, where your heart was,

where your faith was – you could

interfere with business as usual –

you could put your body there for

the cause. The method was still

effective, he said.  Listening, the

man thought about incarnation

and Jesus’ body in the way of

business as usual.
