Christian tradition:
change and revolution,
nonviolent aggression,
dignity and justice,
bringing to completion;
recognition of equality, despite social status.
a pointed arrow, not a loop.
Christian perspectives
unique to us.
they’ve spread elsewhere, suffused the world
where we progress to and from
each generation changes
yet the Spirit leads us
and scripture too.
Scripture, but a tool of the Spirit
a tool of God the Father,
all pointing to Christ.
a Christian tradition,
the anchor point—
thing on which all is built
