Inhaltsangabe

"To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men," wrote poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Conversely, to live from love in a world defined by sin and suffering requires extraordinary courage. These are our choices: to cower in fear or to reach out in love, to remain paralyzed or to step out in faith, to perpetuate suffering or to respond with grace, to choose silence or to become an advocate of merciful restoration." In this open letter to church and society, the author introduces seven conspiracies and seven questions.

To Sin by Silence considers the ways our silence misses the mark and contributes to cycles of pain in our world. With a mix of personal accounts, viewpoints from scripture and theologians, and observations on systemic sin and its repercussions, the author presents an invitation to those who follow the teachings of Jesus to consider the ways their choice to remain silent may cause lasting damage and to reconsider their approach to the presence of sin, suffering, and shame.
