A Spine Poem

Dark force rising...
Holes.

A grief observed:
pride and prejudice,
crime and punishment.

The condition of postmodernity,
the path of loneliness.
Quest for love.

Come, Thou long-expected Jesus!

The passion of Jesus Christ:
crazy love adorning the dark!
The dawning of indestructible joy!
Let the nations be glad!

God the peacemaker,
give them grace.
Calm my anxious heart.

The gospel-centered community:
the shaping of a Christian family
secure in the everlasting arms.

Also I didn’t even realize how many Elisabeth Elliot books I have in the stack!
