Breathing Space: A Spiritual Journey in the South Bronx
Currents in Theology and Mission, Oct, 2005
Breathing Space: A Spiritual Journey in the South Bronx. By Heidi B. Neumark (Beacon, $25). N., who preached the installation sermon for Bishop Mark Hanson, recounts her nineteen-year ministry at Transfiguration Lutheran Church in the South Bronx. As pastor of an African American and Hispanic parish burdened by poverty, drug use, and attendant miseries, N.
mixes anecdotes filled with hope and pain with biblical commentary and a rich knowledge of the giants of spirituality, both ancient and contemporary. She has learned to live "threatened by resurrection." The people she mourns, celebrates, and loves will not allow her to live as though they have not lived. In an Epilogue N. announces that she has taken on a new call at Trinity Lutheran Church in Manhattan. I cannot imagine a better example of the ELCA's program "in the city for good." RWK
