    Summary

    Jud wonders for a moment if Langstrom is making fun of him, but he shoves down the ugly, angry monster in his chest. “I’m baptized.”

    “That’s a start.”

    They stare at each other in silence. Langstrom’s face barely changes, and Jud realizes that it’s not amusement in his eyes, but patience—gentle, kind patience that Jud does not think himself capable of. He feels sharp shame in his throat for thinking badly of Father Langstrom.

    He gets up and leaves.

    .~.

    An exploration of the moments in Jud's life that created the priest in Wake Up Dead Man and John 8:32.
