I present this not as a political debate, though I am aware some will perceive it that way. Instead, I see it as a powerfully clear message that speaks to the heart of the matter: humanity. Fear is real and always will be, but the test that all our religions put to us is the level of compassion and humanity with which we respond to that fear. The mere expression of this blog post brings fear for me, fear that some may no longer see me as a viable speaker or coach for them or their group because of this post. I don’t present these words as a division. I simply connected with them at a core, visceral level that brought tears of compassion to my eyes as I watched, and I wanted to share it with those who would listen – not in judgement, but in love.
