“We must not focus on occupying the spaces where power is
exercised, but rather on starting long-run historical processes. We must
initiate processes rather than occupy spaces. God manifests himself in time and
is present in the processes of history. This gives priority to actions that
give birth to new historical dynamics. And it requires patience, waiting.”
In ordinary secular activity, we must master self to make
the gift of self. This inserts Christ - personally - into the warp and woof of secular history
and the historical processes begins again - and again. The one who does this becomes Another Christ in work and family life. The drum beat begins. Again.
