To Dr. David Urion's question, "How can I help you?" the father of
the young boy with autism responded in a small voice that choked
back some tears, "Be with us. Keep us company. This is so lonely."
This book is part of Dr. Urion's attempt to keep his promise, a
promise which in fact we all made to this family and to many
families on the day of their child's baptism. Baptism by baptism,
in each of our faith communities, we vow to do everything in our
power to support them in their life in God. Urion beckons us to
contemplate the miraculous healings in the Gospel of Mark as
subversive political acts of power that provide examples of
restoring the integrity and the wholeness of the community, not
just for the persons who are overtly healed but for the community
as well. The tales of power he invites us to consider in this book
reflect upon the extraordinary and paradoxical power of the
powerless.
