Let None of You Suffer as a Murderer or a Thief or an Evil Doer or a Meddler

We end this holiday week on the podcast with an email from a young man named Peyton. Don't prioritize the value of suffering above the value of doing good, he writes. What arrested my attention in that text is how obvious it is that we ought not to suffer as a murderer or a thief,. He certainly did not mean it's okay if you murder and steal and do evil and meddle. Just don't get caught and suffer for it.
