Last month, something happened that shook the foundations of our country.
Charlie Kirk, a polarizing conservative activist, was assassinated at a speaking event on a college campus.

In the hours afterward, the finger‑pointing began: the left blamed the right, the right blamed the left and all of social media went into an uproar.

In a moment, this charged we need to slow down and ask a harder question.
Because underneath all the outrage is a shared conviction: the enemy must be them.

And in our rush to name the villain, we rarely stop to see ourselves.

So in this episode, we’re not just dissecting politics, we’re holding up a mirror.
How does outrage make us forget our own capacity for cruelty? How does moral certainty blind us to the ways we mirror the very people we condemn?
And why does self‑righteousness feel so good when it’s disguised as truth?

Because if every moment of outrage becomes proof that we’re the good ones, then we’ve already lost sight of grace.

Maybe the real enemy isn’t who we think it is.

Maybe it’s the sin in all of us that needs someone else to be worse.
