This book is dedicated to Anna Marie Aagaard on the occasion of her 70th birthday. It is written by a number of friends and colleagues. The essays touch upon a number of the issues and interpretations that have shaped and been shaped by Anna Marie Aagaard in her theological work: spirituality, ecumenicity and ethics - also including poetry and politics. In this endeavour lies the hope that this book itself is an outreach towards new bginnings and ends, pointing beyond itself to the world outside its pages, and that all the contributions in one way or another construct a meaning and form "cracks" in those walls we constantly and regrettably build, be they theological, cultural, moral or otherwise.
