Social Justice Lectionary

Social justice is about community and compassion. That’s who we are. This is what and who we are called to be.

We are to speak act and think "theolocally".

The Reign of Christ

A POEM FOR THE FEAST OF CHRIST THE KING

See how this infant boy

lifted himself down

into his humble crèche

and laid his tender glove of skin

against splintered wood—

found refuge in a rack

of straw—home

that chilly dawn,

in sweetest silage,

those shriven stalks.

This outcast king lifted

himself high upon his savage cross,

extended the regal banner

of his bones, draping himself

upon his throne—his battered feet,

his wounded hands not fastened

there by nails but sewn

by the strictest thorn of love.
