This time, we take on the questions: "what do you do as a Christian when you have critics, and they're way off?: And, perhaps more importantly, "what do we do when a critic from an entirely different perspective or tradition has a powerful point?"

In this series, we look at people and moments in the Christian tradition where those who came before us give us precedents for facing our epoch-shaping tests and tasks.
This time we meet a man who faced the pressure that comes with the overwhelming number of options presented to us in a pluralistic environment, and still managed to make the kinds of decisions and commitments that make life rich and meaningful.
