The Mourners’ Bench Revisted: And Other Stations of Weeping and Joy

"Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted" (Matt 5:4). Take a walk down the aisle in poetic worship. In this place of deep seeking and longing, poet Billye Okera expresses the ambiguities of faith through the lens of love and relationships, sexual abuse, suicide, the Black Pentecostal/Apostolic Church, and a woman's delicate self-image. 3rd edition with preface, short story, additional poems.
