In this deeply personal episode of Help the People, Shannon Riley explores the boldness it takes to tell the truth in a world built on silence. Drawing on his novel Murder of Crows, Shannon unpacks the spiritual, emotional, and cultural wounds that keep communities performing faith rather than living it. Through raw storytelling and reflection, he examines how healing begins with confession, how awakening demands honesty, and how wholeness is found when faith, truth, and purpose finally align.
