RESOURCES
The Church Year in Limericks—
Christopher M. Brunelle. Like an Advent calendar
or a box of chocolates, The Church Year in Limericks
is not meant to be enjoyed all at once. Each stanza
exists on its own, and reading the entire collection
straight through diminishes the individuality of its
separate parts. Think of this book instead as a sort of hymnal, in which all the
hymns happen to be written in the same meter but each one serves a different
purpose in worship: contemplation, inspiration, insight, comfort, joy. Yes,
there is perhaps a higher quotient of lively word play here than in a regular
hymnal, but that's all the more reason to appreciate each limerick for itself.
-Christopher M. Brunelle
