The Arc of Repentance
By Helen W. Mallon

of finding her identity in other people and in her own obsessions. While turning
back to God in brokenness brings peace, she realizes that lifelong repentance
will bring a new identity.

and the destruction of the self. David McGlynn recounts the
story of a brutal crime that led to the loss of a treasured
friend, and how that loss has changed his view of the body.
