The Cross

Anonymous

Some look at a book
Memorize every nook and cranny
Finding the answers to all their questions
Assuredly seeking to impart the God they know
Evangelicals calling mainline churches names like “apostate”
I look at the same book
Can’t reconcile each chapter and verse
Finding question marks wrapped in an enigma
Historical fiction with a powerful message
about the human condition
Calling out suffering, “God help us all
for we know not what we do to each other…”
