My Featured Blogger this week, Rita Sommers-Flanagan, creator of the blog site Short visits with an honest God (and numerous books on clinical psychology) will make your heart hurt and your brain burn (or possibly the other way around). If you’re a satisfied agnostic materialist, she’ll rattle your comfy shoe box reality; if you’re a complacent conservative, she’ll unsettle your settled view of God with her constantly morphing portrait of him as male, female, homeless, homemaker, snarkily detached, passionately engaged. My own theology doesn’t line-up all that perfectly with Rita’s, but that’s not what matters. What’s matters is her painful, urgent, sometimes beautiful vision of humanity, and that of the honest, often metaphorical, God with whom she visits.
