The example of Brendan Eich after he was cancelled from his own company. A great read and reminder to not fear, but build anyway, trusting that your efforts are committed to Christ.
I am not here to complain about cancel culture. Brendan Eich does not. He is too busy. He refuses to be defined by the evil done to him, or by the purported heterodoxy of his beliefs, but by the work he does and by his character, as known by those closest to him.
