HERE’S A FAMOUS quote attributed to Saint Teresa of Ávila. Most people think she never actually said it, but leave that aside for a moment. The rumored quote says: “Christ has no body now on earth but yours.” I believe I understand the gist of this phrase, although I can see why some feel it’s not quite right from a theological perspective. In any event, today—with the reader’s kind indulgence—I shall put my own “spin” or “take” on this quotation:
