Eucharist is the imagination of the church.

Hey Bob - it's a spectacular book.
In case your reader's want to look it up - very good reading for Lent, and I used this story for my Good Friday homily last year - it's by William T. Cavanaugh.
He's more recently written Being Consumed: Economics and Christian Desire,
which I haven't picked up yet, but I imagine would be good reading considering our economic climate.
