When people are being targeted, “neutral” isn’t neutral.
In this urgent message, Pastor Dan Minor exposes a tactic as old as history: strip people of dignity, and harm starts to sound reasonable. You’ll hear why the phrase “I don’t like what’s happening, but…” should set off alarms, and why the church’s instinct to “wait for all the facts” can become a permission slip for cruelty.
Dan also reclaims a word many of us have seen misused: honor. Not honor as silence. Not honor as compliance. Not honor as protecting institutions. But honor as Jesus taught it — publicly recognizing someone’s full humanity and acting like it matters.
This episode is both a wake-up call and a practical blueprint: refusing neutrality when it benefits the powerful, turning our attention toward those being erased, and living at the urgency of love — not just in posts, but in priorities, relationships, and everyday choices.
