He who dares not offend cannot be honest.
– Thomas Paine
Confrontation does not have to be disruptive. It does not have to be condescending. It does not have to demand the accolades of being right, or more intelligent, or any other form of being better. It does not have to win an audience, village, tribe, or cult. It does not have to be received well or not well.
Faced, however, with evil, or errancy, or danger the Christian Way requires leaning into the fear of responding with an answer.
