Twelve Responses to Abuse Accusations in Christian Conferences, Part 3
Consider going back to “old ways” of ethical conduct. Don’t slander people who know, or defend, the accused abuser. Be shocked when accused men “repent” to everyone except God. Lament that these situations often come with no-win scenarios (for now).

Imperfect Characters Inspire Us
Novelist Gillian Bronte Adams: “Imperfect characters are inspiring because they remind us of grace, modeling how to fall and rise again and how to keep on keeping on.”

Worldbuilding and the ‘Fictional Dream’
While it’s impossible to think through every scientific implication of intergalactic space travel or magical agriculture, worldbuilders should at least pay attention to the things readers
